Reusable pads - what are they?

A reusable pad is a feminine hygiene product that can be worn during menstruation to catch blood and can be used multiple times. These reusable pads are usually made of cotton or bamboo fabric and may contain multiple layers of fabric for extra protection. Because they can be washed and reused, these reusable pads are a more environmentally friendly option than disposable pads, which should be discarded after use. Many women also find them more comfortable and pleasant than disposable pads.

Reusable pads: sizes and models

There are several models and sizes of reusable menstrual pads. There are 2 sizes available in FemiEko's reusable pad range, S and M. Depending on your period, you can choose the right size according to how much you bleed.

For example, reusable pads in size M are designed for heavier bleeding and for bleeding after childbirth, while size S is better for light menstrual days or for daily discharge and incontinence. You can also choose a combination of reusable pads and a menstrual cup to find what works best for you and to cover all your menstrual days.

Once you have chosen a reusable menstrual pad, it is important to know how to use it correctly. FemiEko's reusable pads have wings that fasten over the sides of the underwear to keep them in place in the panty.

Reusable pads: How to use them

The bandage must be washed before first use to activate the absorbency of the material. Start by washing your hands. Then put the bandage down in the panty and fasten the wings around the bottom of the panty with the buttons. Once the bandage is in place, you can go about your day without fear of stains.

Avoid touching the absorbent material with your hands during use as this can cause bacteria to grow.

When it's time to take off your pad, wash your hands again and open the buttons. Then remove the bandage. Rinse the pad with cold water until all the menstrual fluid has been washed off, then wash it in hot or cold water, by hand or machine, but no more than 40 degrees, otherwise you may destroy the waterproof layer. Let it air dry before using again. Do not use disinfectant, conditioner or bleach, and do not iron.
