How to use sanitary napkins for women

In our lives, many women need to use sanitary napkins, because it is very convenient to use sanitary napkins when girls are menstruating. However, for those girls who have just started menstruating, they don’t know much about the use of sanitary napkins, and they don’t know what kind of sanitary napkins to choose. So how should women use sanitary napkins?

How to use sanitary napkins: One is a long strip without ears on both sides. For this kind of sanitary napkin, just tear open the packaging bag, take out the sanitary napkin and unfold it, then tear off the paper tape on the back of the sanitary napkin (this paper tape is to prevent the sanitary napkin from sticking when packed, it has no other use and can be thrown away after tearing it off), put the adhesive side of the sanitary napkin on the crotch of the underwear and stick it on the underwear, and the sanitary napkin is in place.

Second way to use sanitary napkins: Another type of sanitary napkin is a long strip in the middle with an "ear" on each side. To use this type of sanitary napkin, open the package, take out the sanitary napkin, tear off the paper tape in the middle first, and stick the glued side to the middle of the crotch of the underwear, with the two ears aligned with the narrowest part of the crotch. Then tear off the small piece of sticky paper on the back of the left "ear", fold the "ear" from the narrowest part of the left side of the underwear to stick it to the front of the crotch, and then tear off the sticky paper on the back of the other side of the "ear", fold it from the right side of the narrowest part of the crotch to fix it on the front of the crotch. Because of the adhesive adhesion at the bottom of the sanitary napkin and the fixation of the "ear" from both sides, the sanitary napkin will be firmly stuck to the bottom of the underwear, and it will be less likely to move during activities.

Not washing hands when changing sanitary napkins

We all remember clearly the rule we have been taught since childhood about washing hands before meals and after going to the toilet. However, no one pays attention to the requirement to wash hands before changing sanitary napkins. Because the process of unpacking, opening, smoothing and sticking sanitary napkins by hand will bring germs onto the sanitary napkins. Sanitary napkins are in direct contact with the female vulva skin and the menstrual period is a period when women's resistance is relatively low. If you are not careful, the risk of gynecological diseases will increase.

Put sanitary napkins in the bathroom

Where to put the sanitary napkin seems to be a problem. But more women choose to put it in a sanitary napkin because it is convenient to use. Some women buy sanitary napkins and store them in the lockers in the bathroom for easy access. Compared with other rooms in the house, the bathroom is the most humid, and some families' bathrooms are never exposed to sunlight all day long. Little do people know that bacteria are more likely to invade sanitary napkins when they become damp. After unpacking, sanitary napkins should be placed in a dry and clean place and should not be used if they become damp.

Use medicated sanitary napkins

In response to the needs of women, there are now many medicated health care sanitary napkins on the market. It is favored by the majority of female compatriots because of its antibacterial, antibacterial, antipruritic, dysmenorrhea relief, discomfort relief and vaginal acidity and alkalinity balance effects. However, if a woman really suffers from a gynecological disease, these sanitary napkins will definitely not play a therapeutic role, and if a woman who does not have the disease uses them, they will not be able to prevent the occurrence of the disease. Some medicated sanitary napkins may destroy the acid-base balance of the private parts, cause dysbacteriosis, reduce the self-immunity and cleansing function of the private parts, and make them more vulnerable to bacterial invasion. For women with sensitive constitutions, medicated sanitary napkins should be used with caution, as they may cause skin allergies and symptoms such as private itching. People with sensitive skin are best to choose cotton sanitary napkins that are soft, comfortable and less irritating to the skin.
