HOW TO USE REUSABLE SANITARY TOWELS
Step 1: Pull up your underwear to your knees while sitting on the loo.
Step 2: Face the wings upwards and press the sanitary towel on the crotch of your underwear.
Step 3: Next, try folding the wings along the crotch’s sides of the underwear.
Step 4: Change your sanitary towel after seeing that it won’t be able to get in any more fluids.
Step 5: After you are done with this pad, soak it in hot soapy water and leave it to soak under the sink till the end of the month, when you are done with all of your pads. After that, wash them in detergent water completely and let them soak for further use.
In case of disposable pads, try keeping them away from your pets. The smell of blood might attract them.
Also, it goes without saying that you need to keep your hands clean at all times by regularly washing them. If you can maintain hygiene while taking care of your body, it is you yourself who would benefit from the entire process. When buying pads, keep in mind that you only buy ones that have good certification from the authorities. And always make sure that the pad suits your skin and doesn’t lead to infections.
