Organic Cotton Pads

Super-soft and comfy (like sitting on a cloud) ☁️

Our pads offer ultimate comfort and protection whilst caring for the planet. Lightweight, naturally absorbent and made with certified organic cotton from core to cover.

Ethically designed with you & the planet in mind.

Here’s why you’ll love our organic cotton pads:

Soft & breathable ☁️

Synthetic fibers can lock in sweat, moisture and disrupt your pH balance. We use 100% organic cotton that’s super soft, breathable, and kinder to your vagina.

Ultra-absorbent, naturally 🩸

Each pad has a triple woven layer of organic cotton, a waterproof backing (that’s certified compostable) and secure-fit wings for ultimate leak protection.

No harmful ingredients 🧪

Inspired by your period, we keep it natural with our period care – no fragrance, dyes, artificial absorbents, or chlorine bleach.

Reduce plastic waste every cycle 🌍

We use organic and biodegradable materials, even our wrappers are corn-derived and certified compostable.

Kelly Mulhall – Nutritional Therapist & Founder of The Natural Balance

Cheyenne Morgan – Registered Nurse and @Letstalksgynae educator

“My personal experience with TOTM products has been amazing. I believe this helped to minimise my skin irritation and lower my risk of infections. I definitely would recommend TOTM products, as they are made with 100% organic cotton. I have received only great feedback from friends, family, and patients I have recommended them too.”

Kathie Bishop – Medical Herbalist & Vaginal Health Specialist

“As a medical herbalist specialising in helping women who are struggling with chronic vaginal issues like BV or Thrush, I discuss period products a lot. Personally, TOTM’s Super pads are the only ones for me – they are incredibly soft (no chaffing!) and stay firmly in place. I love recommending TOTM to my clients!”

Katherine Irene Glyde – Menstrual Wellbeing Coach & Founder

“I have been a TOTM customer since 2019, I had recently been diagnosed with endometriosis and I wanted to make sure I was making the best choices for myself and my body. As a Menstrual Wellbeing Coach it is incredibly important to me to only share and recommend brands and products that I have used and trust – TOTM really does tick every box.”

Dr Nuthana Bhayankaram – Doctor & The Medical Women Podcast Host

“As a doctor interested in tackling climate change, I am always on the lookout for more sustainable products. I also like to support small businesses with B corp certification. I was delighted to come across TOTM – firstly, I love that the brand is called Time of the month and they make menstrual products. TOTM products are made using organic cotton and wood pulp and are incredibly soft and comfortable. It’s great that even the wrappers are biodegradable! I also like that TOTM consider the whole supply chain of their products.”

Why organic cotton pads?

Product Ingredients

Conventional pads can contain up to 90% plastic, but we want to do something about that. Our pads use certified organic cotton that’s sustainably sourced without toxic pesticides or herbicides. 💚 We chose organic cotton as it’s naturally super soft, absorbent, breathable and moisture-wicking, making it ideal to use in period care.☁️

Pads:

100% organic cotton topsheet.
100% organic cotton absorbent core.
Corn-derived certified compostable waterproof backsheet.
Certified compostable pad wrappers.
Non-toxic adhesive (to stick to underwear).

Made without fragrance, dyes, chlorine bleach, artificial absorbents (SAP) or titanium dioxide.

Packaging:

Pads individually wrapped in a corn-derived certified compostable biofilm.
Packed in FSC certified & fully recyclable cardboard boxes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you use certified organic cotton?

We do! Our tampons, pads and liners are made with organic cotton that’s certified by ICEA to comply with the Global Organic Cotton Textiles Standard (GOTS). GOTS has a defined set of criteria for organic fibres, including ecological and social criteria.

What is your packaging made from?

We’re proud to use plastic-free packaging across the range. Our products are packed in recycled cardboard boxes which are fully recyclable.

Are your pads suitable for sensitive skin?

Our pads are hypoallergenic and ideal for sensitive skin. They are designed to prevent irritation such as itching, rashing and general discomfort.

Are your products cruelty free and vegan?

All TOTM period care products are registered with The Vegan Society and carry the Vegan Trademark. The Vegan Society’s standards for the Vegan Trademark includes both no animal ingredients, and no animal testing (at the initiative of the company or on its behalf, or by parties over whom the company has effective control).

Do your pads contain PFAs or titanium dioxide?

We recognise that there are growing concerns over the use of titanium dioxide and PFA (forever chemicals) in period care products. At TOTM, we never add titanium dioxide to any of our organic cotton products. With PFAs, PFA testing was conducted by EUROFINS in 2023 on our organic cotton pads, natural pads and tampons. All of them passed the test under the acceptance criteria specified by AFIRM Restricted Substances List 2023 ver.08. The method used in this test was the total fluorine content (meaning that different PFAS were tested, regardless of if they are or not regulated).

How do TOTM pads compare to other brands?

Our period care is designed to be different. We’re proud to use quality, sustainable materials throughout our range. Our organic cotton pads use 100% organic cotton from core to cover which sets us apart from the big brands and other eco brands in this space.

In other pads, you may find ingredients like fragrance, dyes, chlorine bleach and artificial absorbents (super absorbent polymers). In fact, SAP is often found in conventional pads and bamboo pads. As we’re all about comfort at TOTM and want to prevent vaginal irritation, we leave ingredients such as this out of our pads. We love that organic cotton is naturally absorbent, super soft and breathable. It’s an eco-conscious alternative that’s kind to you and the planet. Our pads are still competitive in terms of absorbency however are the best choice for sensitive skin.

What are your pads made from?

TOTM pads are made from 100% GOTS certified organic cotton from the topsheet through to the absorbent core. They are made without rayon, fragrance/perfumes, dyes, artificial absorbents (SAP) and chlorine bleach.
