What are the specific differences between sanitary napkins and panty liners?

Panty liners and sanitary napkins are both commonly used physiological care tools for women. Some people are not particularly clear about these two care tools, but in fact, their specific differences are quite obvious. Sanitary napkins are mainly used to absorb blood, while panty liners are better at absorbing physiological fluids. In addition, the usage time of panty liners and sanitary napkins will also be different.

First, the appearance of panty liners and sanitary napkins is different

In fact, the principles of panty liners and sanitary napkins are essentially the same, and both have the function of absorbing physiological fluids. However, sanitary pads are generally not used to absorb menstrual blood, and are more commonly used in daily life, so they are designed to be relatively small and convenient for people to use.

Sanitary napkins are generally used during menstruation and need to absorb a relatively large amount of physiological fluids. Therefore, from a design point of view, designers will design sanitary napkins to be larger and thicker than panty liners, like an enlarged version of panty liners.

Second, the use time of sanitary napkins and panty liners is different

Generally, we cannot use sanitary pads during menstruation because the sanitary pads have a relatively small absorbent capacity, so menstrual blood can easily leak out and stain our pants. Therefore, sanitary pads are generally only used when there is a lot of vaginal discharge, and sanitary napkins are divided into daily use and night use. Day use is generally used during the day, because female friends have less menstrual blood during the day, and they will be changed more frequently. Sanitary napkins for night use are generally larger because people sleep longer at night and like to move around when sleeping. Sanitary napkins for night use generally have the effect of preventing side leakage.

The above is an introduction to the differences between panty liners and sanitary napkins. In fact, panty liners and sanitary napkins have the same functions and are often used by female friends in daily life. There is no doubt that sanitary napkins are used by every female friend, while only some female friends with more leucorrhea will use panty liners. However, medically speaking, panty liners and sanitary napkins are both industrial products, so frequent use may actually cause harm to our bodies. Therefore, it is not recommended for female friends to use panty liners for a long time.
