Analysis of Sanitary Pad Materials: Choose The Right One To Protect Your Health

In women's daily lives, sanitary pads have become an indispensable and intimate partner. They provide women with comfort and peace of mind on special days, and the materials used are directly related to women's health and experience.

Sanitary Pad Material

Sanitary pads are mainly composed of several key parts, each with specific materials and functions. The first is the surface layer, which is usually made of soft non-woven fabric. The non-woven fabrics of high-quality brands are as delicate as silk and gently stick to the skin, as if they were a second layer of skin, skin-friendly and breathable. When you touch the surface of the pads of those well-known brands, you can feel its softness and delicacy, which greatly reduces the friction with the skin, making it almost imperceptible for women in daily activities. However, some non-woven fabrics of small brands may be relatively rough and not skin-friendly, which may cause some discomfort to the skin when used.

Next is the absorbent core, which is mainly composed of wood pulp and super absorbent polymer. Brand A's pads excel in this regard, as they increase the proportion of super absorbent polymer, making the absorbent capacity as strong as a sponge. Even the slightest secretion can be absorbed instantly and locked firmly, keeping the surface of the pad dry. Brand B, on the other hand, has put a lot of effort into the selection of wood pulp, using natural and pure wood pulp to reduce the risk of allergies. In contrast, some low-priced brands may reduce the amount of absorbent materials used in order to reduce costs, which leads to unsatisfactory absorption and prone to leakage.

The bottom layer is generally a waterproof polyethylene film. Some brands have cleverly increased the breathability while ensuring waterproofness through innovative processes. Imagine using such a pad in the hot summer, which can prevent liquid from seeping out and staining clothes, and will not make you feel stuffy and humid, as if bringing a fresh breeze to the private parts. However, those ordinary brands may only focus on the waterproof function, but ignore the importance of breathability, and long-term use may make women feel uncomfortable.

The material of the side wings is usually similar to the surface layer, which is non-woven or other soft materials. The side wings of high-end brands are uniquely designed to fit the curves of the human body perfectly, and the material is soft and has moderate stickiness. Whether walking, running or sitting, it can firmly fix the pad in place without causing any discomfort to the skin. However, the side wings of some brands may be too sticky and easily damage the skin when torn off, causing unnecessary pain to women.

Different materials have their own advantages and disadvantages. Although the surface of non-woven fabric is soft, skin-friendly and breathable, it is not durable enough and is easy to break. However, high-quality brands will use special treatments to improve the durability of non-woven fabrics and extend the service life of the pads. The combination of wood pulp and super absorbent polymer has good absorbency and is relatively low in cost. However, wood pulp may cause allergic reactions, and super absorbent polymer may deteriorate in overly humid environments. The differences in material processing and quality between brands directly affect the overall performance of the pads. The bottom layer of polyethylene film is highly waterproof, but its disadvantage of being non-breathable may cause a stuffy feeling. The different degrees of improvement of the bottom layer material by different brands determine the difference in comfort of the pads during use.

How to Choose

First of all, you have to choose according to your personal skin type. If you have sensitive skin, you should choose pads made of natural materials and without additives. You can refer to some brands that focus on natural materials and carefully understand their ingredients and user reviews. For women with normal skin, you can consider factors such as absorbency and breathability. When choosing, you can refer to the performance of different brands in these aspects and make a wise decision. Secondly, you have to choose according to the usage scenario. When using it daily, you should focus on lightness and breathability, and choose brands that perform well in this regard to improve daily comfort. When exercising, you should choose pads that are more fitted and not easy to shift, and pay attention to the brand's side wing design and overall stability.

In short, the material selection of sanitary pads is crucial. Choosing the right material can not only bring a comfortable experience to women, but also protect their health. Among the many brands, consumers should consider various factors comprehensively and choose the sanitary pads that best suit them according to their needs. Let us start on the road of caring for ourselves by choosing a high-quality sanitary pad.
