Periods without Fear

During your period, bacteria can travel up the vagina into the uterus and fallopian tubes and cause an infection. This is more common during periods but can occur at any time during your menstrual cycle. It is estimated that 75 % of women will suffer through a yeast infection in their lifetime. Typically characterized by intense itching, soreness, and/or clumpy white discharge resembling cottage cheese, yeast infections result when the vagina’s good bacteria—specifically, Lactobacillus acidophilus—are thrown out of whack, allowing the vagina’s natural yeast to flourish. The possibility for infections is very high during the menstrual period. Most of the diseases are due to the wrong selection and usage of the sanitary napkins. Napkins with non-breathable and plastic materials are the main cause of itching, pain, rashes and other infections. However the use of Sanitary Napkins is indispensable during periods for keeping your body healthy and safe.
