Things to note when using tampons and sanitary napkins

During the menstrual period, you need to pay special attention to your physical health, because your body is relatively fragile at this time. If you can't control yourself, you will be easily affected by some reproductive diseases. Therefore, you must pay special attention to and know the sanitary products you use best. Now we would like to introduce to you some issues about the use of tampons and sanitary napkins.

1. Sanitary napkin: It is attached inside the underwear. When the cotton pad absorbs more blood, it must be replaced. It is very convenient to use and feels safe, so most Taiwanese women like to use sanitary napkins. However, when the weather is hot and humid, the menstrual blood will not only easily emit an odor, but it is also easy for the genitals to be infected with Candida albicans, resulting in genital itching, so sanitary napkins need to be changed frequently.

2. Tampon: When using, insert the tampon into the vagina. It has the effect of strongly absorbing menstrual blood. Using tampons will not affect your clothing and is more convenient for movement and exercise, so they are more commonly used by European and American women. However, tampons are not suitable for girls who have no sexual experience and whose hymen is still intact. In addition, because tampons press on the vaginal wall, they can sometimes cause ulcers in the vaginal wall. There have also been reports abroad of horrific cases where the use of tampons caused a large number of Staphylococcus aureus to multiply in the vagina, resulting in symptoms such as sore throat, fever, joint and muscle pain, low blood pressure, and even shock.

Therefore, sanitary napkins or tampons have their pros and cons, and the choice should be based on personal preference and physical condition. In short, developing good hygiene habits during menstruation is the best way to protect yourself.

I hope that female friends can treat these sanitary products with a scientific and healthy attitude, because only by using these sanitary products correctly can we better avoid the occurrence of some reproductive diseases, especially during the menstrual period, we should pay more attention to the recognition and understanding of these common sense.
