I found this article below when I googled sanitary pads. Admittedly this health scare is in the past but it shows that the industry is really unregulated with what they put on the market. Only if there are a lot of complaints or mayor problems companies act to improve their products.
Like I found out with tampons, they are on the market since 1933 and have never been tested by an official body for dioxins or other toxins. Luckily articles like the one below do have an influence on the consumers. They are starting to ask what they are presented with.
The founder of Winalite Sanitary Napkins started out looking for the possible contributing factors for the death of his mother. She died of cervical cancer. He was investigating what is in sanitary pads and came up with a new product revolutionizing the market of sanitary pads and nappies.
Please do not ignore this amazing opportunity and give it a try. You will never look back. Because this product is not available in shops we rely on distributors. Everybody has a best friend that you want to recommend a good product to. Take the opportunity and contact me today about this ethical and amazing product and business opportunity.
Here is the article I found:

Contact dermatitis associated with the use of Always sanitary napkins
E. L. Eason and P. Feldman
Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Montreal General Hospital, Que.
OBJECTIVE: To report a clinical association between vulvar irritation or contact dermatitis and the use of Always sanitary napkins. DESIGN: Case series. SETTING: A gynecology practice in Montreal. PATIENTS: Women presenting between September 1991 and September 1994 with itching or burning of areas that would be in contact with a sanitary napkin (mons pubis, external surfaces of the vulva and perineum) beginning at least 1 day after the use of the napkins was started and less than 5 days after the use was stopped. RESULTS: Twenty-eight women experienced vulvar itching and burning, often associated with eruptions resembling contact dermatitis, of the vulvar and perineal surfaces after using Always sanitary napkins. Twenty-six reported that symptoms disappeared after they stopped using that brand of sanitary napkin. Seven women who later used the same brand again reported a recurrence of the vulvar irritation. CONCLUSION: The findings of this case series reveal Always sanitary napkins as a potentially important cause of recurrent vulvitis. Physician awareness of the association will enable effective advice and relief for a large number of women suffering “chronic vaginitis”.
