Beware of inflammation caused by sanitary napkins

Sanitary napkins are the most commonly used items during menstruation. They are one of the most private daily necessities, so the quality of sanitary napkins is directly related to women's health. In recent years, the media has often exposed some inferior sanitary napkins. Some unscrupulous manufacturers sell inferior products as good ones. Such inferior sanitary napkins often contain a large number of pathogens. If such sanitary napkins are used, it is easy to cause some gynecological diseases.

1. Expired or inferior sanitary napkins

We know that food has a shelf life, so of course sanitary napkins also have a shelf life. The hygiene and safety of inferior or expired sanitary napkins cannot be guaranteed. They can easily cause discomfort in the private parts after use, leading to itching, odor, etc.

Women have no resistance to discounts. Once they see something on sale, they feel they would be missing out if they don’t buy it, no matter if it’s useful or not. Sanitary napkins are a necessity for women. Some women often buy a lot of them at one time when they are on sale or when they are convenient, and then store them. Some women also place sanitary napkins in humid bathrooms for convenience.

It’s right to be convenient, but if you are lazy, you are the one who will suffer. Sanitary napkins need to be stored in a dry, sterile environment. If sanitary napkins are exposed to moisture or stored for too long, they will become contaminated even if they are not opened, breed bacteria and deteriorate.

Due to the accumulation of sweat, the private parts will easily develop odor if they are covered for a long time in hot weather. In order to cover up these embarrassing odors, some female friends prefer to use scented sanitary napkins.

In fact, these scented sanitary napkins contain different types of additives or flavors, a large part of which have not been tested by the country's strict quality standards and are the main factor causing skin allergies. If there are broken areas on the skin at this time, these allergens are likely to penetrate into the blood and cause disease.

It is recommended that women do not buy low-quality sanitary napkins for the sake of cheapness. Sanitary napkins should be placed in a clean, dry, and sterile environment, and should not be used after they expire or when exposed to moisture.
