Wearing a napkin pad, also known as a sanitary pad, is straightforward.
Here's a step-by-step guide:
Steps for Applying a Napkin Pad
- Prepare the Pad: Begin by unwrapping the napkin pad.
- Remove the Backing: You peel off the paper strip that covers the adhesive. This exposes the sticky part that will attach to your underwear.
- Position in Underwear: Carefully place the pad in the crotch area of your underwear.
- Adhere the Pad: Press the adhesive side of the pad firmly onto the fabric of your underwear. Ensure that it is securely placed so that it does not shift easily.
- Wrap Wings (If Applicable): If your pad has wings, wrap these around the bottom of the crotch of your underwear to the outside. This gives extra protection and helps to hold the pad in place.
Removing a Napkin Pad
- Detach from Underwear: Gently unstick the pad from your underwear.
- Wrap in Toilet Paper: To dispose of it hygienically, wrap it in toilet paper or the wrapper from the new pad.
- Dispose: Throw the wrapped pad in a suitable bin. Never flush it down the toilet as this can cause blockages.
Key Points
- Always use a new, clean pad every time you need to change.
- The frequency of changing pads depends on your flow.
- Make sure the pad is positioned in your underwear in a way that is comfortable for you.
