Say Goodbye to Menstrual Discomfort: Learn How to Use Sanitary Napkins Correctly for a Comfortable Period Every Month!
Throughout a woman's life, sanitary napkins are a reliable "little helper." However, do you really know how to use them correctly? Today, let's take a closer look at this seemingly simple, yet detail-rich topic.
Firstly, when choosing a sanitary napkin, we should select the appropriate type based on our menstrual flow. According to surveys, about 30% of women experience minor embarrassment during their period due to insufficient absorption by their sanitary napkins.
On heavy flow days, you should choose sanitary napkins with strong absorption and thicker padding, such as overnight pads with extra-long absorbent cores. On lighter flow days, thinner, daytime sanitary napkins are more suitable.
When we take a sanitary napkin, we can see that it has several main parts. The front side has a soft, skin-friendly surface, which directly contacts our body, so it's important to ensure that the material is safe and comfortable. The back side typically has adhesive strips or a sticky surface.
When using a sanitary napkin, the first step is to wash your hands thoroughly. This is very important, just like a food connoisseur washing their hands before tasting a dish. Next, open the packaging and place the adhesive side of the napkin in the center of your underwear. Make sure it is securely and evenly placed. Experts suggest that you gently press down on the adhesive part to ensure it doesn't shift during movement.
Next, adjust the napkin's shape to perfectly fit the body’s curves. It’s like putting on a tailor-made piece of clothing. Some women may overlook this step, which can cause the napkin to wrinkle during use, affecting comfort and possibly reducing its absorption effectiveness.
During use, remember to change the sanitary napkin regularly. Generally, it should be replaced every 2-4 hours. This is because if you don’t change it in time, bacteria can multiply on the napkin. Data shows that after 4 hours of use, the number of bacteria on the napkin can be several times higher than if it is changed regularly. It’s like a small bacterial culture dish, which is definitely not good for our health.
When you need to change your sanitary napkin, you should roll up the used sanitary napkin, wrap it with the wrapping paper of the new sanitary napkin or a special sanitary napkin storage bag, and then throw it into the trash can. This is not only to maintain environmental hygiene, but also a manifestation of civilization.
Summary: The correct use of sanitary napkins is related to the health and comfort of women during their menstrual period. From choosing the right type of sanitary napkin, to correctly sticking and adjusting it, to regularly changing it and properly disposing of used sanitary napkins, every link cannot be ignored.
I hope every female friend can master these little bits of knowledge so that they no longer have to worry about their menstrual period and can spend each special day of the month comfortably.
