In Home User Testing (iHUT) FAQs

We test a wide range of products including period care (tampons, pads, liners, etc.), postpartum care, bladder care, and baby care. We also test postpartum products such as nursing pads and underwear, bladder care products, diapers, and wipes for both baby and personal care. When you join our testing panel, the profiling survey you complete helps us match you with the products that are right for you.

We typically can’t reveal that. Keeping the brand anonymous helps us get unbiased, honest feedback.

Yes. We believe in the brands we work with and the products we help them create. All products go through safety and quality checks before being included in a study. Some may be new designs, but all are tested under safe, controlled conditions. All of our tampon studies are conducted under FDA oversight to ensure participant safety and compliance with regulatory standards.

Sometimes the products we test are already on shelves. Other times we’re helping brands make changes to existing products or develop something totally new
