As a menstrual educator, she is dedicated to giving a new meaning to the menstrual cycle and menstruation for girls, teenagers, and women through positive, healthy, sustainable, and empowering experiences
This is achieved through menstrual education workshops and the manufacture and sale of reusable cloth sanitary pads -ECOPADS-. She considers herself a creative, disciplined woman who enjoys helping others and learning new things.
ECOPADS
- Are an alternative to single-use products that absorbs and retains menstrual blood
- Allow the vulva to breathe, which means that you will not heat up, nor have the sensation of sweating.
- Last for 2 to 5 years, which saves you money.
ECOPADS
- Do not contain plastics – the blood does not oxidize, and they do not generate bad odors.
- Help reconnect with your menstrual experiences to gain a more positive connection with your health and cyclicity.
- Can be used in combination with other types of alternative products, such as the menstrual cup.
ECOPADS
- Are friendly to nature by reducing the volume of waste generated.
- Contribute to the circular economy by supporting local handmade products.
- They are free of chemicals, beneficial for the body, environmentally friendly, and crafted entirely by hand.
