When 27-year-old Xiao Fang returned from a trip to Xinjiang, he used sanitary napkins on the train for a long time and the environment was stuffy, which led to an infection of his intimate parts, which eventually caused a Bartholin's gland abscess. This case is a wake-up call for all women: menstrual hygiene should not be neglected anytime and anywhere.
Menstruation is a very special period of a woman's menstrual cycle, when the body's immunity is relatively low, and the intimate parts are more susceptible to bacterial invasion. If you don't pay attention to hygiene, it can easily lead to inflammation. Especially in special circumstances such as travel, changes in the environment and uncertainty of the itinerary increase the risk of infection.
So, how should women do a good job of personal hygiene when traveling during menstruation? Here are a few suggestions for your reference:
1。 Prepare enough hygiene supplies: When you're out and about, be sure to bring plenty of sanitary napkins, sanitary wipes, and other supplies in case you need them.
2。 Change sanitary napkins frequently: Whether at home or away, sanitary napkins should not be used for too long. It is recommended to replace it every 4-6 hours to keep the intimate area clean and dry.
3。 Choose breathable clothing: Loose-fitting, breathable clothing can help keep intimate areas ventilated and reduce the chance of bacteria growth.
4。 Drink plenty of water and take rest: Drinking plenty of water can help detoxify the body, and adequate rest can boost the body's immunity.
5。 If you feel unwell, seek medical attention in time: If you have abnormal symptoms during menstruation, such as vulvar itching, pain, abnormal discharge, etc., you must go to the hospital in time and do not delay.
Xiaofang's experience reminds every female friend that menstrual hygiene cannot be sloppy. Maintaining good hygiene is a sign of responsibility for your health. Let's join hands to take care of women's intimate health, whether at home or away, they can enjoy the beauty of life easily and comfortably!
