Go for it if you...
You want a pad made entirely of certified organic cotton, with no superabsorbent gel or plastic against your skin
You care about avoiding PFAS and want the reassurance of an independent lab non-detect on the brand's cotton line
You have sensitive skin and react to conventional or fragranced pads
You want the strongest third-party organic certification, GOTS, behind what you buy
You want an organic-cotton topsheet and a fragrance-free pad for sensitive skin
You value a brand that openly discloses what every layer is made of
You want a dermatologically tested, hypoallergenic pad for daily wear
You are comfortable with an organic claim that has strong disclosure but no published PFAS test
The main thing to know
The one thing Organyc does not publish is its own finished-product PFAS test. An independent lab already tested its organic cotton line and found none, so the evidence is strong, it just comes from outside the brand rather than from a certificate Organyc prints itself.
Cora is clean on nearly every signal, an organic-cotton topsheet, an elemental chlorine-free core, no fragrance, and full layer disclosure, but an independent lab detected organic fluorine, a PFAS marker, on Cora's line, and the brand publishes no finished-product PFAS test to rule it out. That does not mean this exact pad is contaminated; it means the one thing we could not verify is the forever-chemical question the organic label does not answer.
Skip this if you...
You want to see a finished-product PFAS certificate published by the brand itself, not just an outside lab result
You need a pad with an independently tested, lab-measured absorbency figure before you trust it
You want the lowest price per pad over a premium certified-organic option
You want a published finished-product PFAS test showing non-detect before you buy
You want a named organic certification like GOTS or OEKO-TEX standing behind the claim
You are looking for a plastic-free or phthalate-free backsheet
Neither of these quite what you're looking for?
