Brief summary
Intimate protections, designed to absorb menstrual flow during menstruation, are classified into two categories: internal intimate protections (tampon, menstrual cup) and external intimate protections (disposable or washable sanitary pads, panty liner, menstrual panty). Recently, women's expectations have changed with a demand for transparency regarding intimate protection's composition and potential health risks. The choice and use of a type of intimate protection will depend on multiple factors specific to each woman. The cost of intimate protectioncould influence patient choice, as disposable sanitary pads are often less expensive.
Detailed description
