Do sanitary napkins need to be changed frequently?

Jul 17, 2021

Regular replacement of sanitary napkins can ensure the health of the reproductive system. Menstrual blood is rich in nutrients, which can easily become a ‘medium’ for the proliferation of bacteria. Therefore, sanitary napkins must be replaced diligently.

Many women are prone to fall into the following misunderstandings when using sanitary napkins: When menstrual flow is low, they often take a long time to change sanitary napkins, or think that sanitary napkins with large absorption capacity can be chosen for a longer time without changing sanitary napkins. Especially when the menstrual blood is low, only one or two tablets a day are used. This is a serious mistake.

Failure to change sanitary napkins for a long time during menstruation is an important reason for the onset of gynecological inflammation. Experiments have shown that ordinary sanitary napkins become a "medium" for bacteria after 2 hours of use. The total number of bacteria on the surface can reach 107/cm2. Women's self-immunity decreases during menstruation and is more susceptible to external bacteria. Even if the sanitary napkins are qualified, when the human body moves, the special physiological structure of the anus, urethra and vagina will allow germs to move on the sanitary napkins and cause their own cross-infection. In addition, moisture tends to accumulate locally in summer and cause allergies, so it is recommended to replace it every 2 hours regardless of the amount. In addition, even if the period comes, clean the vulva with clean water every day, and the more important it is to clean during the menstrual period.
