How Do You Use A Sanitary Napkin (Pad)?
• Choose a pad of the appropriate thickness and absorbency. If you have a light period, start with a light pad, and so on. • Absorbency of pads has improved dramatically, even in recent years. Some thinner pads can be quite absorbent. Look at the rating and length, and try a few different brands and styles before settling on one you like. • Thinner pads are often more comfortable to sit on. • Remove any wrappers or boxes from the pad. You can discard them or use them to dispose of the used pad you are replacing. • Fold out the flaps, or wings open the bag and take off the long, center backing that covers the adhesive on the center. • Stick the adhesive part to your panties. You’ll get better with practice at centering the pad front to back. • Remove any backings from the adhesive on the flaps or wings and fold them around the panties so that they stick. Wear the panties as usual. Check regularly to see if the pad needs changing. You can check when you go to the bathroom. Change the pad
