To properly place a breast pad in your bra, follow these simple steps:
First, remove the breast pad from its wrapper. Next, peel off the protective sheets from the adhesive strips on the back of the pad. Then, carefully place the pad inside your bra cup, making sure the contoured edges are positioned at the sides. The adhesive strips will then stick to the bra material, which keeps the pad securely in place.

Step-by-Step Guide to Applying Breast Pads
-
Prepare the Pad:
- Take one breast pad out of its individual packaging.
- Locate the adhesive strips on the back of the pad.
- Gently peel off the protective backing from the adhesive strips to expose the sticky surface.
-
Position the Pad:
- Open your bra cup.
- Place the pad inside the cup, ensuring the contoured edges of the pad are facing toward the sides of your bra (towards your armpits). This placement ensures a more comfortable and natural fit.
-
Secure the Pad:
- Press the pad gently against the bra material. The adhesive strips will stick to the fabric, preventing the pad from shifting.
- Make sure the pad is lying flat and that there are no folds or creases.
-
Adjust and Check:
- Put your bra on as normal.
- Adjust the placement if necessary for comfort and to make sure the pad is positioned to absorb leakage effectively.
*Check in the mirror if you need to check that the pad is not visible through your clothing.
By correctly applying the breast pad, you can manage leakage effectively and comfortably throughout the day.
