I have read with dismay and concern of recent complaints about the harmful effects of sanitary pads to the v***a area. Issues ranging from rashes, infections and discomfort generally.
What is the way forward?
Do we go back to cloth pads?
Can our young girls handle tampons and menstrual cups?
Are we going to use baby diapers? Is dis not going to be a route for price hike?
What are regulatory agencies doing?
What can we do differently?
Using a soothing cream such as Vaseline and sheer butter can help with rashes from sanitary pads.
Also frequently changing sanitary pads especially towards the end of the period can help with chemical exchange that results in infections and discomfort.
Let's help ourselves dear people.
Much love πππ
