Nowadays the menstrual habit of girls has changed drastically. Instead of pads, they are opting for products that are comfortable and easy on your skin. Among those, tampons are getting more and more popular. Although they are used as alternatives to pads, there is still more to know about them.
Tampons are feminine hygiene products that are used to effectively absorb menstrual flow. It is a cylindrical-shaped device, composed of soft material that is inserted into the vagina to collect menstrual blood.
Tampons are available in a variety of sizes and absorbency levels to meet varying flow intensities. Tampons feature a string at one end that is used to remove them. SOFY tampons come with an easy-to-use applicator that sets them apart from other ordinary tampons. The tampon, once inserted, swells and absorbs the menstrual blood, preventing leaks.
- Women often express fear of pain or of the tampon getting stuck in the vagina. While that may be scary at first, once you have the proper knowledge and care to use it, you will find it more convenient and easy to use.
- Whether you use a tampon or a pad, it must be changed frequently to avoid infections.
- When you insert or remove a tampon, the bacteria and germs on your hands can enter your body. So, even if you’ve spent the day on your laptop or slept for hours in your bed, you should wash your hands before changing a tampon.
SOFY offers the most affordable tampons for you. For regular blood flow, SOFY Soft Tampons are available in a pack of 10 pieces and 34 pieces. For heavy flow, SOFY has brought Soft Tampons Super which is available in 2 packs of 9 pieces and 32 pieces.
Tampons are routinely used by women to manage menstrual flow simply and inconspicuously. They let women move freely and participate in activities such as swimming and sports throughout their periods. Once you get used to the application, you’ll find tampons an easy and effective way to manage your period.
