Good news for your body and your budget. You can use your Health Savings Account (HSA) and Flexible Spending Account (FSA) funds to purchase your favorite LOLA period products. We believe everyone deserves access to clean, effective products, and using your pre-tax dollars makes that even easier.
What Are HSAs and FSAs, Anyway?
These tax-advantaged accounts let you set aside money from your paycheck to pay for qualified health expenses. This lowers your taxable income, which means you save money on essentials you're already buying.
Health Savings Account (HSA)
An HSA is a personal savings account for health costs, typically paired with a high-deductible health plan. A major benefit is that your funds roll over year after year, so you don't have to worry about losing them.
Flexible Spending Account (FSA)
An FSA is an account offered by your employer for healthcare needs. These funds usually operate on a "use it or lose it" basis each year, so it's important to use your balance before your plan's deadline [1]. Both accounts cover a wide range of eligible expenses, now including period care.
Your Favorite LOLA Products Are Eligible
Thanks to the CARES Act of 2020, the IRS now officially recognizes menstrual care products as qualified medical expenses [2]. This is a huge step forward, confirming that menstrual care products including tampons, pads, and more are HSA/FSA approved.
Here are the LOLA period care products covered by HSA and FSA funds.

How to Purchase LOLA Products with Your HSA/FSA
We've made it simple to use your pre-tax dollars with two easy options.
1. Pay Directly at Checkout
Simply add eligible products to your cart and enter your HSA or FSA debit card details at checkout, just like a regular credit card. It's that easy. For more details, see our guide on how to pay with an HSA/FSA card.
2. Pay and Get Reimbursed
If you don't have an HSA/FSA card, you can complete your purchase with a personal card. Just save your order confirmation email, which serves as your itemized receipt, and submit it to your HSA or FSA provider for reimbursement.
Your Questions, Answered
Here are quick answers to common questions about HSA and FSA eligible period care options.
Do I need a prescription or a Letter of Medical Necessity?
No. Since 2020, you no longer need a doctor's note to purchase menstrual care products like tampons and pads with your health account funds [4].
Are LOLA subscriptions eligible for HSA/FSA?
At this time, subscriptions cannot be paid for with HSA or FSA funds. This benefit only applies to one-time purchases.
Can I use my HSA/FSA for postpartum care products?
Yes. Our postpartum pads and other essentials are eligible. We believe supportive postpartum care is a vital part of your health journey.
What if my cart contains both eligible and ineligible items?
To use your HSA/FSA card directly at checkout, your cart must contain only eligible products. If you want to buy both, we recommend placing two separate orders.
