Sensitive Skin Saviors: OB-GYN Approved Tips for Irritation-Free Periods
Keywords: hypoallergenic pads, sensitive skin period solutions, dermatologist-approved
“My period shouldn’t feel like a rash.”
If you’ve ever experienced itching, redness, or burning during your cycle—it’s not in your head. Dr. Sarah Kim, a board-certified OB-GYN in NYC, says chemical additives and synthetic top layers in mainstream pads are a leading cause of menstrual skin irritation.
“Most conventional pads contain bleach, dyes, and even traces of formaldehyde,” she explains.
“For sensitive vulvar skin, these chemicals are highly disruptive.”
Modal: Tested, Trusted, Certified
Modal’s pads are made with zero added fragrances, dyes, or chlorine bleach—and they’re OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified, the same certification used for baby clothing and surgical textiles.
In third-party lab tests, Modal pads showed:
✅ 0% fluorescent agent residue (vs. 84% of conventional pads)
✅ No skin reactions in a 72-hour continuous wear clinical trial with sensitive-skin participants
Your skin deserves better than a chemical cocktail.
