  1. Sanitary Pads vs Other Feminine Hygiene Products When it comes to managing your periods, you have endless options to choose from, starting from sanitary napkins to menstrual cups. Among these, women pads are the most popular options for period products and are trusted by menstruators since ancient times. They offer great protection from leakage and staining, and are extremely soft and convenient, making them still going strong for women worldwide. This article explores all about these simple pads to help you make the right choice for your needs. What are Sanitary Pads and How Do They Work Sanitary pads, also known as sanitary napkins or women pads, are an aid to absorb menstrual bleeding and thereby prevent its leakage and staining of clothes as a result. They are simple devices that are made up of multiple layers of highly absorbent fabric. Together, they form a complex absorbent core that can quickly and efficiently soak up period fluid. They effectively lock in the moisture inside and don’t let it surface, thus keeping you dry and comfortable throughout the day and night. Moreover, the core can also lock in the moisture which can also help in reducing the foul smell and imparting you with a mild and refreshing fragrance. While one side of a sanitary pad is very soft and absorbent which wicks away the period fluid, its other side is adhesive. You need to stick this side on the gusset of your panty to use the pad. You must change it every 4-6 hours or when it is completely filled. You just need to peel it off from your panty and throw it in a dustbin, rolled up in a tissue. Types of Sanitary Pads You can find many different kinds of pads for periods online. The most common and important distinction lies in their absorption capacities.

  2. pick a heavy flow pad which has a large absorbing capacity. Similarly, if you usually get scanty period flow or medium flow, then you can opt for low-flow or regular flow pads respectively. In addition to these, you can also find many different kinds of pads to suit different needs and preferences. While there are very thin pads which offer great discretion, you can also buy soft and more comfortable thick pads, if that’s what you prefer. You can also find pads with special features like antibacterial protection or those with much higher absorbing capacities and a unique design to offer greater coverage and protection for overnight use. Benefits of Sanitary Pads While tampon prices and pads are comparable, there are many who prefer the latter for their sheer comfort and convenience. Pads are extremely soft and cushy which offer great comfort to the wearer. They do not even need any skills to use and can be easily used even by beginners hence are usually preferred by young women who may have just started getting their periods. They are fairly discreet and can be easily carried around in a purse, and can be discreetly disposed of too. Unlike other menstrual products which are tricky and sometimes impossible to use during nighttime, overnight women pads can be easily used during sleep without the fear of staining. They offer optimum protection for every kind of menstrual flow, scanty, medium or heavy and do a great job at preventing leaks, keeping you dry and providing comfort throughout the day and night. Other Menstrual Products Tampons- Unlike napkins which are used externally, tampons need to be inserted inside the vagina for use. Although tampon prices are comparable to pads and offer no edge over them in that respect, they surely are much more efficient than them. They stay fairly in place and therefore offer greater protection from period staining and leakage. Moreover, they also allow you to stay active and engage in activities such as dancing, running or even swimming without fear of leakage. However, they can be intimidating to use. Besides, pads are softer and more comfortable than tampons. Menstrual Cups- Menstrual cups too need to be inserted inside the vagina for use. These small silicone cups are reusable and so are eco-friendly and cost-effective options when compared to pads. You can opt for them if you want something more sustainable and do not mind emptying and washing them for reuse.

  3. Period Panties- These too are washable and reusable period products which you can make use of if you want an eco-friendly and cost-effective period product. Are Sanitary Pads the Same as Panty Liners Many confuse panty liners to be the same as women pads. However, they are very different from each other. Though their design and material are similar in nature, their fabrication is very distinct due to their distinct intended use. While sanitary pads are used for soaking period fluid, panty liners are designed for absorbing vaginal discharge on days other than menstruation. Panty liners are quite small and thin and have very less absorbing capacities therefore though they make for a great tool to catch white vaginal discharge, light urine leakage, spotting etc., they are unsuitable for collecting menstrual fluid. With cost- effective panty liner prices, you can use them every day, during your non-period days to help yourself stay clean, hygienic and fresh; and leave the job of leakage and stain protection during periods, on your trusted pads. Conclusion Sanitary pads are the most wonderfully convenient, comfortable and robust menstrual hygiene solution. As you may have seen, there are numerous benefits of using it and may even work better than other period products like tampons or cups for many. Though, they are not meant to be used every day and must only be used during your menstruation period. For other days, you must check panty liner prices and invest in them for all-day freshness and comfort. So, if you have just had your first period, or are confused about whether you must stick to pads or look elsewhere for protection, then we hope this article helped you. You must research and buy the right pads for periods online to suit your specific needs.
