5 Important questions to ask while choosing a sanitary pad.

Sanitary pads are one of the widely used menstrual care products to ensure optimal menstrual hygiene. There are so many brands out there each serving the basic purpose of offering leakage protection. However, we all bleed differently and we need to understand what kind suits us before we stock on them. Well, it all begins with asking the right questions. When you know the answer to them, you will find for yourself a sanitary pad that fits within your lifestyle. 

1) How is the pad made? 

Know what goes into the making of the sanitary pad. Understand the materials that form the top, middle and bottom layer? Research if the proposed material is highly absorbent or not. Know whether the pad is manufactured with medically established standards or not? Know if the materials are bleached in prescribed standards before being sewn into a pad. Know if the chemicals used in the manufacturing pads are friendlier on your skin or would pose harm to you. Also, check if the pads are made with breathable fabric so that your intimate hygiene care is maintained. 

2) How long will the pad offer protection against leakage? 

Before you choose a pad, check the number of hours before which it needs to be changed. Every pad needs to be changed at specified time periods so that it doesn’t cause infection. If you are someone who is always on a move, you need a pad that offers long hours of protection. This is also true for nighttime pads. You don’t need to lose your sleep every hour having to check on your pad. The all-night protection pads ensure that you sleep worry-free throughout the night without any leaks. 

In short, look for pads that offer high protection for long hours. 

3) Are the sanitary pad easy to dispose of? 

Whatever brand you are choosing ensure that they are easy to dispose of. You don’t want to find materials while you are on the go. You need pads that are easy to be wrapped and disposed of. Pick something that won’t cause health hazards when disposed of. 

4) What are the available sizes? 

We all bleed differently and we need different absorbency pads for our periods. Check for the sizes that a proposed brand is offering and compare it with alternatives of other brands. There are numerous sizing options available hence don’t settle unless you find the one that suits you. 

The general sizing in the markets is categorized on the basis of flow. Pick any one or two different sizes and use them based on the day of your period.
