Choosing thin gaskets

Thin and ultra-thin panty liners are the best solution for women who prefer to wear beautiful tight-fitting clothes even on critical days. The minimum thickness of these hygiene products ensures a comfortable experience regardless of the level of female activity. What manufacturers offer modern women with minimal pads? How to choose reliable ultra-thin products?

Thin and ultra-thin pads are hygiene products, the thickness of which does not exceed 1 cm. Products consist of three layers:

• the top layer - the one that adjoins directly to the body, is made of a soft mesh material that allows air and moisture to pass through;
• filler - an absorbent layer, usually consisting of cellulose and absorbent material;
• the bottom layer is moisture-proof, with an adhesive strip for fixing the pad to the linen.

Like regular thick pads, thin and ultra-thin products are classified according to the absorbency, which is indicated by drops on the package. The number of drops usually ranges from three to seven:

• 3 drops (Light) - hygiene products recommended for scanty menstruation;
• 4 drops (Normal) - pads recommended for normal menstruation with a normal flow;
• 5 drops (Super) - remedies recommended for heavy menstruation;
• 6-7 drops or more (Night) - night pads for heavy menstruation with a large volume of discharge.

• Kotex ultra night - Extra long, thin night pads with wings that provide protection against leaks during sleep. The products are made of soft cotton, non-woven and absorbent material.
• Vuokkoset Normal - ultra-thin pads without wings, with increased absorbency. Products have an anatomical shape, consist of a layer of cellulose, polypropylene non-woven and polymeric superabsorbent material.
• Naturella ultra - a series of inexpensive thin pads with varying degrees of absorbency. The products of this brand are treated with a special soothing lotion Dermacrem, which gives them a subtle scent and prevents skin irritation in the intimate area on critical days.
• Always ultra - a series of thin pads with wings, differing in the degree of absorbency. The filler of the products is superabsorbent, which provides reliable protection against leaks. Additional protection is provided by special contoured SecureGuard grooves and a super absorbent gel layer.
• Libresse - a popular brand under which a series of thin day and night pads are produced in various sizes and degrees of absorbency. In the line you can find flavored, extended day and night hygiene products with superabsorbent filler.

When choosing thin and ultra-thin pads for critical days, gynecologists recommend focusing primarily on the usual volume of discharge. So, for women suffering from profuse blood loss during menstruation, doctors are advised to use hygiene products with maximum absorbency (they are also recommended to be used by women who lead an active life on critical days and who want to protect themselves from accidental embarrassment during this period).

The most convenient are hygiene products with wings, which have an anatomical shape. They follow the contours of the female body, do not move and are practically not felt during movement and other physical exertion. Wingless pads, in turn, are considered less reliable and unsuitable for active women.

Wash your hands with soap and water before attaching the pad to your underwear. Then the unpacked product should be fixed on the inside of the panties, straighten and iron the sticky wings with your fingers, tucking them under the edge of the linen.
