The number of pads considered "normal" to use in a day varies, but a rough estimate is four or five pads if you're getting around 7 hours of sleep each night.
It's important to remember that there isn't a single "right" answer, as several factors influence how many pads you might need.
Factors affecting pad usage:
- Flow volume: A heavier flow will naturally require more frequent pad changes.
- Pad absorbency: Different pads offer varying levels of absorbency. Using a more absorbent pad might reduce the number of changes needed.
- Individual preference: Some individuals prefer to change pads more frequently for hygiene reasons.
- Sleep duration: Longer sleep periods might necessitate more absorbent pads or changes immediately before and after sleep.
