A good fit makes all the difference in clothes, shoes and especially in sanitary napkins. Selecting the correct size and shape of pad is absolutely essential to all day comfort and leakage protection. Most day time pads come in at least three size categories: regular, XL & XL+. You also have the choice of thick pads and ultra-thin, super absorbent variants. The first step to choosing the right pad is ascertaining the level of your period flow. Some of us experience a heavy flow on the first couple of days. Others only have heavy flow at night. Some might have a heavy flow throughout. Pick the size based on your current needs. Different days may need differing sizes of pads.
Now that we know about what suits you best, how often should you change your sanitary napkin? It is advisable to change our sanitary napkin every 3-4 hours. This prevents the fear of leakage and stains as well as ensuring good hygiene, especially during the active hours of daytime. Of course, pads can be easily worn for up to 8 hours or over the night. Some variants of slim and extra-long sanitary napkins are specifically designed for overnight usage and they also provide 99.9% protection from bacteria.
To ensure proper hygiene, it is advisable to change your pad every 4-6 hours.
