By that logic, couldn't you just do the same thing to the used pads?

Most sanitary are made to be single use. Cutting one and breaking it apart to understand how those are made is an interesting experience.

Reusable, washable pads exist but, to my knowledge, are not that main stream. But should.

I grew up surrounded by women recalling the time before discardable sanitary pads were a thing and every single one remembered using home made cloths made of thick and absorbent cotton, capable of being washed again and again, even for a lifetime.

Soft leather would also be an alternative, being absorbent, durable and washable.

I should have clarified, I meant the pads that she made from the jeans, therefore negating the need to harvest more.

Thanks for the info though, I didn't know about the leather fact.

There is no such thing as too many pads, even more if we consider the setting of the story. I can even imagine being used as a barter item.

They could also double as bandages which would be in short supply
