Which sanitary napkin is more breathable?

There are many brands and styles of sanitary napkins. Since every woman who has her period has to use one, it is difficult to say which one is the best and most breathable. You can only judge based on your experience of use. By then the mesh ones will be relatively more breathable and made of cotton. There are two types of sanitary napkins, one is the traditional sanitary napkin and the other is the tampon. Next, let’s talk about how to choose the better sanitary napkin between these two types.

How to choose sanitary napkins

Based on the surface material, sanitary napkins on the market are mainly divided into two types: dry and soft. There is a lot of knowledge involved in how to make choices based on personal physique and physiological period characteristics.

Dry mesh sanitary napkins are made of a chemical fiber material called "perforated membrane", which has the characteristic of fast water permeability, but chemical fibers may increase the chance of allergies. Cotton mesh is mostly made of non-woven fabric, which is extracted from cotton. It is more natural and soft, suitable for most women.

People with sensitive skin should choose products with cottony surfaces to avoid allergies and excessive friction. However, if you need to travel or sit in a car for a long time, you might as well use one with a dry surface to speed up the absorption of menstrual blood, reduce the feeling of dampness and stuffiness, and reduce the risk of infection.

How to use sanitary napkins

An internal tampon is a sanitary napkin that is placed inside the vagina during menstruation. It gently fits against the vaginal wall and can absorb all menstrual blood inside the body. Therefore, it can prevent leakage and keep the outside of the body clean and dry.

Because tampons are inserted into the vagina and form a closed space, if they are not replaced regularly, it is easy for normal bacteria in the vagina to multiply rapidly, causing infection and inflammation. When the amount of menstrual blood is too little, if the tampon is not changed frequently, long-term use may cause menstrual blood to flow backwards, causing gynecological diseases such as endometriosis. If used, it should be changed every 2 to 3 hours.

The above is how to choose sanitary napkins. As long as the sanitary napkins are breathable and made of good cotton, they can be used. Some sanitary napkins have samples in supermarkets. You can check whether the samples are of good quality and breathable, and thus judge the quality of the brand of sanitary napkins. Remember, not all sanitary napkins with the most advertisements are the best, and not all more expensive ones are better.
