If you change your pad often enough, your PIMPs won´t smell. Cloth pads allow moisture to evaporate and less moisture means less odor (and no more feeling like there´s a soggy lump in your pants!). Your PIMP won´t feel wet until it´s completely saturated and then it´s time to change it!

If you do notice a strong smell, you could be suffering from a vaginal infection like Bacterial Vaginosis or a Yeast Infection. These conditions are common in women who´ve previously used disposable menstrual products, especially tampons. Don´t worry! There are many natural methods of establishing a healthy bacterial balance.

In fact, if you feel like your menstrual blood has a scent, disposable menstrual products might actually be the culprit. Disposable pads are typically held together by synthetic webbing and plastic components. This fake stuff reduces a pad´s breathability and creates a humid, sweaty environment that bacteria just loves. And contrary to popular belief, tampons aren´t sterile. They can alter your vagina´s pH balance by introducing foreign bacteria and absorbing healthy bacteria.
