How to use sanitary napkins correctly
1. Replace every 2-3 hours
Pudenda is easy to be humid, muggy, and delicate, so it needs a very breathable environment. If it is closed too tightly, moisture will accumulate, it is easy to breed bacteria, causing all kinds of health problems.
Many women like to choose a large amount of hygroscopic sanitary napkin, feel that this can not often replace, save a lot of trouble. However, menstrual blood is rich in nutrients, which is easy to become the 'culture medium' for bacteria to breed wantonly. If the sanitary napkin is not replaced for a long time, the local accumulated menstrual blood will greatly increase the humidity, and the local ventilation and air permeability are poor, which is more favorable for bacterial reproduction and easy to cause bacterial infection. It is suggested that women should replace it every 2-3 hours and should not exceed 2 hours in summer.
2. Wash hands before use
Many women do not wash their hands before using sanitary napkins. Maybe it is because sanitary napkins are packaged separately, so they think that sanitary napkins are clean and can be used safely. But in this process, they neglect that the use of sanitary napkins needs to go through a process of opening, opening, smoothing and pasting. If the hands carry a large number of bacteria, they may 'pollute' sanitary napkins, which is easy to cause bacterial infection.

3. Women with asexual experience are not suitable for tampons
Tampons have the effect of strong absorption of menstrual blood. When used, the tampons will be inserted into the vagina, which will not be affected in clothing. It is also convenient to move and exercise. It is favored by many European and American women. However, tampons are not suitable for girls who have no sexual experience and whose hymen is still intact. Or like the girl in the case, it may also cause a large number of Staphylococcus aureus in the vagina due to the use of tampons for a long time, resulting in sore throat, fever, sore joints and muscles, decreased blood pressure, and even shock and death.
4. Cotton sliver is not suitable for menstruation
If the amount of menstruation, coupled with a tampon full of blood, blocking the vagina, will lead to menstrual blood can not flow smoothly. And these can not flow from the vagina of menstrual blood, is likely to flow back into the uterine cavity, and then cause poisoning in the body.
5. Medicine or scented sanitary napkin should be used with caution
There may be two reasons for the use of sanitary napkin allergy, one is that the patient's skin is sensitive, and the other is that the sanitary napkin itself does not meet the standard and cannot meet the hygiene requirements. Some women are more likely to be medicated sanitary napkins, menstruates, and advertisements for dysmenorrhea. Some women want to cover the smell of the private parts of the menstrual period through the smell of sanitary napkins. However, there are different types of medicines, fragrances or additives in the sanitary napkins and fragrant sanitary napkins. Some of these additives have not been tested by strict national quality standards. It is the main cause of skin allergy. If there is damage on the skin, these allergens can also penetrate into the blood, causing allergic diseases in other tissues and organs of the human body except the genitourinary system.

6. Do not use pads at ordinary times
In the two days before and after menstruation, many women will use pads instead of sanitary napkins, convenient and practical. But if you're used to using a pad every day, it's not worth promoting.
A variety of microorganisms, such as Corynebacterium, Lactobacillus, Staphylococcus epidermidis and other resident bacteria can be detected in the vagina of normal women, and even a few E.coli or Staphylococcus aureus exist. Under normal conditions, they are not sick, but if you often use the pad, because the side of the pad is a layer of plastic film, airtight, these 'opportunistic pathogens' breed in a humid and warm environment, leading to vulvitis or vaginitis.
