The pads that you buy at the store usually have plastics in them, so they don't break down very well. But, if you make your own pads, with cotton, then yes, those will. You can also buy (or make) washable, reusable pads.

It takes 180 days if they are in proper condition of composting. Like i am using Anandi pads they get decomposed in 180days as they are 100% biodegradable and organic .But don't ask about how many days or time is taken for the chemical pads to get decomposed , you wont believe it takes 800 years to decompose a chemical pad but than also not fully. I would always go for organic pads like anandi pads
