Sex with LUWI isn't only good for your heath — it's also good for the environment! Let us explain...
Recent articles have highlighted concerns about PFAS in condoms and other sexual health products, such as lube. Your health and safety is of the utmost importance when you consider your options for protection (and pleasure), so here's some insight on what PFAS stands for and can harm:
PFAS stands for per-and polyfluoroalkyl substances, which contain a strong carbon-fluorine bond that allows them to accumulate over time in the environment and in the bodies of animals and people, posing health risks. PFAS chemicals might also be thought of as "everywhere chemicals," since they’ve become so common in the products we use every day. (Environmental Health News: "What is PFAS?")
This past week, there has been an uptick in media coverage regarding the high and concerning levels of PFAS in popular safer sex products due to a study by researchers that found toxic levels of PFAS in 29 reproductive health products, tested by Mamavation. TWENTY-NINE! You deserve better.
