Sanitary napkins, is a female friend of the monthly necessities and necessary good helper, in my clinic often see sanitary napkins as a treasure of female friends, in order to achieve the psychological expectations of the “clean” and long-term use of sanitary pads and other products, but it is precisely because of the use of these sanitary products on the existence of many misunderstandings, which led to gynecological diseases! The occurrence of gynecological diseases. Women’s physiological structure is special, the anus is very close to the vagina and urethra, menstruation, sanitary napkins make the anus, vagina, connected to a tight plane, the anal bacteria mixed with menstrual blood and air (serious odor is also produced from this), it is very easy to enter the vagina. In addition, some themselves have gynecological or infectious diseases, such as mycobacterial, trichomonas vaginitis or warts patients, if the use of sanitary napkins is unreasonable, it will lengthen the time of the disease or even aggravate the area of infection. In addition, the use of sanitary napkins there are other misunderstandings, today we sort out one by one, one by one, I hope to help you out of the misunderstanding, to avoid gynecological diseases caused by improper use. 1, how often to change? Due to the rapid development of science and technology nowadays, the absorption capacity of sanitary napkins is greatly improved. Some female friends because of low menstrual flow, or think sanitary napkins absorbent, so only use 2-3 pieces of sanitary napkins every day, think it looks like the surface is very dry sanitary napkins do not need to change, think as long as the sanitary napkins are not overloaded can be used all the time, but also can be more economical and cost-effective. Unbeknownst to you, this practice is a great threat to your health. Menstrual blood is rich in nutrients, loads of menstrual blood sanitary napkin environment warm and moist, it is easy to breed a lot of bacteria, at the same time, our reproductive system in the physiological period is relatively fragile, very easy to be attacked by external germs. If bacteria enter the urethra or vagina and cause urethritis and vaginitis, it will be more than worth it. Therefore, sanitary napkins should be changed every 2 hours. You can use compact sanitary napkins when the amount is low, which can also be more economical. Speaking of which, but also to remind everyone, our toilet small action should also pay attention to: women wipe intimate parts should be wiped from front to back. Many female friends habitually wipe from back to front, do not look down on such a small action, but it is very easy to lead to female urinary tract infections, because the bacteria brought by the stool is far more complex than urine, and should be gently wiped dry vulva, do not go back and forth repeatedly wiping. 2, wash your hands before going to the toilet? We all know that we should wash our hands before meals and after meals, and here I need to give you a key mention is to wash your hands before going to the toilet! You know what? Hands are our day to contact the most objects in the organ, cell phones, computers, elevator handrails, bus handles, etc. are bacteria and viruses everyone touches the place. Hand every hour residual virus or bacteria can be as many as dozens of kinds, toilet before not wash your hands, hand retained bacteria viruses can be in the physiological period of the weakest resistance to bring our external genitalia, increase the risk of infection. Therefore, washing hands before washing hands is to not let themselves infected; washing hands after washing hands is to not infect others, this is the real meaning of washing hands to eliminate infectious diseases. 3, every day pad pads on the health? Some female friends think that pads are small, convenient, hygienic and beneficial to health, some even use them every day, never stop. What is the truth? Long-term use of pads for women, the occurrence of vulvar and vaginal inflammation of many. There is a layer of plastic film at the bottom of the pad, which is designed to prevent leakage, but it is this that leads to poor breathability of sanitary pads, which is very likely to cause perineum moisture, stuffy, breeding bacteria. At the same time white hygiene products in the fluorescent agent, flavor agent and other ingredients, long-term will also lead to other diseases of the skin. Long-term use of sanitary pads, our perineum will be subjected to repeated friction, resulting in localized peeling and follicular damage, vulvar erythema, rashes, eczema, folliculitis and other diseases. Therefore, it is best to use them as needed! After the use of physiological period, usually can not be used on do not use, daily washing of underwear is far more clean and hygienic than pads sanitary pads. 4. What causes allergies? One of the causes of allergies is their own skin sensitivity, for this type of friends, it is recommended to choose the cotton mesh with less irritation to the skin, and less use of dry mesh. Another reason is the sanitary napkin itself, of which the most common is the flavorings and drugs in it. Having said that, some women prefer scented sanitary napkins in order to mask the odor of their periods, but sanitary napkins without any additives are the best to use, as these generally contain chemical ingredients, and a large part of these additives have not been tested to strict national quality standards, and are the main cause of skin irritation. Once you feel irritated, itchy, uncomfortable, immediately stop using this sanitary napkin, it is best to also find out the ingredients that cause allergies, sanitary napkins containing the same ingredients are not to be used again.
