Correct Way To Use A Sanitary Towel

Sanitary pads are intrinsic to a woman’s life. They need it every month, and if the sanitary pads aren’t hygienic, it leads to infection. So, it is of the utmost importance that one actually uses a sanitary pad which is extremely hygienic and disposes of it after a period of time. But also important is the knowledge of how to use it perfectly. Some disposable pads have wings that help you attach it, while the others have adhesives that help you stick it.



Step 1: After removing the sanitary towel from the package, make sure that you unfold it.

Step 2: After sitting on the loo, pull down your underwear up to your knees.

Step 3: After you are done with that, remove the patch off the pad to bring forth the adhesive that will allow you to stick it. If the pad is a winged one, then you would find three such strips for each of the three wings.

Step 4: If you are wearing thongs, then you need to make sure that the widest part of the pad is the one that should face your underwear. Before that, try pressing the sanitary cloth, with its adhesive side down onto your underwear’s crotch portion. After folding the wings to the side of your crotch, press them underneath the panties.

Step 5: Pull your underwear up to see that the pad is completely covering the vaginal opening.

Step 6: Check the pad every couple of hours to see if the pad is completely soaked at the bottom. If that is the case, change the pad.

Step 7: Wrap the sanitary pad in toilet paper/newspaper and properly trash it.
