FAQ Organic disposable hygiene products

Why choose Femi.Eko® menstrual products made of organic cotton over conventional ones?

Femi.Eko® stands for natural and healthy protection without compromise. All our products are made from 100% GOTS certified organic cotton and natural fibers – without plastic, perfume or harmful chemicals. Conventional products can contain up to 90% plastic, synthetic absorbent gels, BPA and dioxin – substances with a negative impact on your intimate health and the environment. When you choose Femi.Eko®, you choose to care for your body and the planet and actively contribute to reducing the pollution from classic feminine hygiene products.

How important are the ingredients in menstrual products for intimate health?

Ingredients are crucial. The intimate area has the most absorbent tissue in the body, and any substance in menstrual products is quickly absorbed into the body. Femi.Eko® products use only organic cotton without pesticides, perfumes, synthetic fibers or chlorine, reducing the risk of irritation, allergies or hormonal imbalance. Think of them as a reliable medical consumable – not just a regular hygiene product.

Are Femi.Eko® menstrual products 100% natural?

Yes, every Femi.Eko® product meets the highest standards of naturalness – from the absorbent layer to the recyclable packaging. The GOTS-certified organic cotton and plant fibers used ensure a safe, toxin-free experience for all skin types.

What certifications do Femi.Eko® products have?

All Femi.Eko® menstrual products are GOTS certified (Global Organic Textile Standard), which guarantees pure organic cotton, produced under ethical and sustainable conditions, and comply with the strictest European quality and safety standards. In addition, they are sustainably produced in Europe in medically approved facilities with ISO 13485:2016 certification. The plant-based materials that give absorbent pads and panty liners their waterproofness are TUV certified.

Are Femi.Eko® products dermatologically and gynecologically tested?

Absolutely! All Femi.Eko® products are dermatologically and gynecologically tested to ensure safe use – even for sensitive or allergic skin. Always follow the instructions for use for best results.

How long can you use Femi.Eko® products? Do they have an expiration date?

Yes, all Femi.Eko® products have a shelf life of up to 3 years from the date of production. The expiration date is stated on the packaging. For a safe experience, they should be used within the specified period.

Are Femi.Eko® products vegan and cruelty-free?

Yes, all Femi.Eko® products are 100% vegan and cruelty-free – without animal ingredients and without animal testing. Ethics and sustainability are part of our DNA.

How are Femi.Eko® products disposed of after use?

Throw Femi.Eko® pads, tampons and panty liners in the residual waste or compost – never in the toilet. They are biodegradable and decompose within 12–24 months without polluting. For faster decomposition, they can be cut into small pieces and mixed with vegetable compost.

Are Femi.Eko® products safe for all ages?

Yes, all Femi.Eko® products are safe and gentle on the skin – suitable for both teenagers and women of all ages. We recommend organic cotton from the first menstruation and throughout life.

How do I choose the right Femi.Eko® menstrual product?

Answer two simple questions: What is your menstrual flow (light, normal, heavy)? Do you prefer external protection (pads, panty liners) or internal (tampons)? You can combine types as needed. Femi.Eko® subscriptions are designed to adapt to your routine – and can be customized at any time!

Where are Femi.Eko® products produced?

All Femi.Eko® products are manufactured in Europe in certified and constantly monitored factories, using only controlled and sustainable raw materials. We prioritize quality, ethics and safety at every stage of production.

Are they vegan and cruelty-free?

Of course! Femi.Eko® uses no animal ingredients and does not test on animals. You choose health and responsibility.
