Is it better to use tampons or sanitary napkins?

Women's physiology is quite special. They have menstruation almost every month, so using sanitary napkins is necessary. However, the methods of dealing with menstruation in China and abroad are different. Foreign countries tend to use sanitary napkins, and many women want to know which one is better. So, is it better to use tampons or sanitary napkins? Let’s take a closer look below.

Let’s talk about this “foreign thing” first. I think everyone is curious about it. The advantage of using tampons is that they are not affected by clothes. They are more convenient whether for daily movements or strenuous exercise, so they are favored by many Chinese women.

But there are pros and cons. Tampons are not as perfect as we think. They also have defects. For example, tampons are not suitable for virgins because they will press on the vaginal wall during use, sometimes causing ulcers of the vaginal wall. There are even reports that some people use tampons, which causes a type of bacteria to multiply in the vagina, causing symptoms such as sore throat, fever, joint and muscle pain, low blood pressure, and even shock.

This time we are going to talk about our “own children”. Many women are accustomed to using sanitary napkins. Indeed, it has been used for so long and naturally has its advantages, such as: it is convenient to use and feels safe.

But it also has disadvantages, otherwise it would not have led to the emergence of new things. When using sanitary napkins, since they are attached to the inside of underwear, when the cotton pad absorbs more blood, it must be replaced. Especially when the weather is hot and humid, the menstrual blood seeps through the sanitary napkin, which not only easily emits odor, but also easily infects the vulva with Candida albicans, causing vulvar itching, so it needs to be changed more frequently.

The above is an introduction to whether it is better to use tampons or sanitary napkins. I hope it will be helpful to everyone’s understanding. There is no clear-cut advantage or disadvantage in using sanitary napkins or sanitary napkins. Female friends can choose according to their own circumstances, but they must pay attention to menstrual health care to prevent gynecological diseases.
