Pads are an essential part of a woman’s hygiene routine, and they can be used during menstruation and are also great for light bladder leakage or any other “incidents” that may come up. Sanitary pads are made from many different materials that vary in thickness and absorption capacity. 

There are thin liners that can wick away moisture, thick sanitary napkins with good absorbency, menstrual cups that collect blood instead of absorbing it, and reusable cloth pads made from bamboo or cotton jerseys. The list goes on! But before you go out looking for the perfect pad (or tampon), here’s how you can choose the right one for your body type.

There Are Many Different Types Of Pads On The Market:

Period pads for every kind has its particular use, and each can be a good option for some people. Sanitary pads are used for light to moderate menstrual flow, and they are not for making a person feel dry or clean between periods but rather serve to absorb blood released during menstruation.

The most common types of pads include:

• Regular – This everyday pad generally comes rectangular with wings at either end. It fits comfortably between the legs and absorbs urine and blood from the vagina.
• Super – These are larger than regular pads and have extra absorption capacity if you need it due to heavy flow or incontinence concerns

Some girls and women like to use panty liners:

• While they are small, thin menstrual pads that can be worn with underwear, panty liners aren’t very absorbent. They might be a good choice for light flow or spotting.

Talk with a parent or trusted adult if you have questions about your menstrual products or what would work best for you.

Some Pads Have Special Features, Including Wings, That Can Help Keep The Pad In Place:

Of course, wings are not necessary for a pad to be effective. However, some women prefer them and find them helpful for keeping the pad in place. Some pads even have an adhesive backing that makes it easier to stick the wing on your underwear or panty liner so that it doesn’t move around as much.

Try Out Different Brands And Styles Of Pads (And Tampons Or Other Products) Until You Find The One That Works For You:

Once you have a general idea of the type of pad you like, try out different brands and styles until you find the one that works for you. Try different brands and styles of tampons, menstrual cups, sponges, and underwear. 

Each has its pros and cons, but they all work similarly. They absorb blood released from your uterus during your period. You may want to experiment with each type until you find what works best for your body type (some people prefer the feeling of wings on their hips while others don’t).

Whatever Product You Use Is Fine As Long As It Feels Comfortable And Absorbs Well:

Whatever product you use, as long as it feels comfortable and absorbs well, it’s the right choice. You might find that one brand works better than another, but remember that everyone is different, so there’s no one-size-fits-all solution.

Try different brands and products until you find the best one for your body shape and size. Feel free to try something else if a particular brand doesn’t feel right! If something seems to work better, consider buying a pack of different brands or types and trying them out before committing to one specifically.

Conclusion:

The bottom line is that there is no single “best” pad for all girls and women, and what’s important is finding the one that works best for you.
