Which sanitary napkin is better?

I believe that female friends are very familiar with sanitary napkins. Sanitary napkins can protect women very well during menstruation. Women’s menstrual period is very special and important, so the choice of sanitary napkins during menstruation is also particularly critical. Therefore, many female friends are very concerned about what kind of sanitary napkins to choose in life. So which type of sanitary napkin is better?

1 A white sanitary napkin does not mean it is clean and safe

Many brands of sanitary napkins on the market now have fluorescent agents added. This is because fluorescent brighteners can absorb near-ultraviolet light that is invisible to the human eye, and then emit blue-purple fluorescence that is visible to the human eye. Therefore, this optical property is used to improve the whiteness and gloss of textiles, paper, plastics and other products. The whiteness of paper prepared by adding fluorescent brightener can be increased by more than 10%. Therefore, the whiter the sanitary napkin is, the better it is not, because normal cotton itself will not be too white. If it is too white, it must be that the manufacturer added fluorescent agents for bleaching, and fluorescent agents are extremely harmful to the human body.

2 Allergies are not a trivial matter

Some women experience allergic sensations such as itching and discomfort when using sanitary napkins. Some people think that this phenomenon is temporary and will go away over time; some people will take anti-allergic drugs orally. In fact, the only way to prevent allergies is to avoid allergens, so once you feel itchy or uncomfortable, stop using the sanitary napkin immediately. It would be best if you can find out the ingredient that causes the allergy.

Health reminder:

People with sensitive skin should use less dry mesh sanitary napkins and choose cotton mesh instead. The dry mesh surface absorbs quickly, but the cotton mesh surface is softer, more comfortable and less irritating to the skin. I have also used mesh sanitary napkins, but they would cause rashes. Now I finally reluctantly changed to this cotton sanitary napkin. Although it is a little expensive, health is more important. In addition, allergies are more likely to occur in the summer due to the local accumulation of moisture, so you should pay more attention to changing them frequently.

Use the following three small experiments to identify which sanitary napkin is the best

Experiment 1: Identification of air permeability

Now you can test the breathability by tearing off the first absorbent layer. Fill a paper cup with hot water, cover the torn sanitary napkin on the paper cup filled with hot water, and then put the transparent cup on. After about 2 minutes, take down the transparent plastic cup and check how much fog is inside the cup. The more fog is formed, the better the breathability of the sanitary napkin. Don't be reluctant to check your expensive sanitary napkins. You should know that this is a once-and-for-all method. You don't have to worry about whether the sanitary napkins you use have quality problems. I was a little reluctant before. After all, the afternoon sanitary napkins I used were more than 19 yuan a pack, and I couldn't get them at a bargain price. But I still tried it with pain.

Experiment 2: Leakage test

Mix yogurt with water, and it is best to add a little colored solution (to see the color). This should be closer to the consistency of menstrual blood. . . Pour the mixed liquid evenly into the sanitary napkin, then you can observe the extent of your side leakage.

Experiment 3: Is the cotton layer resistant to friction and soft?

This test is to see if the chip fades. The white one will definitely not fade. Wipe it with a wet tissue. Pay attention to the sanitary napkin with a blue chip. The softer and better the cotton layer is, the less likely it is to be deformed by friction. This is to test the gentleness of the cotton layer in contact with the skin. After rubbing it hard with a wet tissue, if the cotton layer on the surface is only slightly deformed, it means that your sanitary napkin has passed the test. Through these experiments, do you all know what kind of sanitary napkin is easy to use?

I hope everyone can do these experiments so that you never have to go to a doctor or friend to ask which sanitary napkin is the best.

Ps

Regarding the choice of sanitary napkins, Ding Hui, director of the World Health Organization Collaborating Center for Research and Training in Women's Health, said that the cleanliness and hygiene of menstrual products are particularly important. Because the pelvic cavity, uterus, cervix, vagina and the external environment are all connected, this structure makes the female reproductive system particularly vulnerable to invasion by external pathogens, especially during menstruation, when the resistance of the reproductive organs decreases and they are more fragile than usual. If substandard sanitary napkins are used, infection is particularly likely to occur.

The above is an introduction about which type of sanitary napkins is better. Sanitary napkins are in direct contact with women's private parts, so you must choose safe and healthy sanitary napkins so as not to affect women's health. When choosing sanitary napkins, female friends must choose some sanitary napkins that do not add fluorescent agents and have better breathability.
