FAQ’s
2. How do Sofy Cool pads help prevent period rashes?
Sofy Cool pads are made with breathable materials and Cool Pad Technology that disperses heat and allows air circulation. This reduces moisture buildup and heat accumulation in the intimate area. By keeping skin cooler and drier, the pads help prevent friction and irritation that commonly cause period rashes.
3. Can Sofy Cool pads be used on heavy flow days?
Yes. Sofy Cool pads are available in high-absorbency variants suitable for heavy flow days. Their cooling technology and breathability work alongside superior absorbency to manage heavier menstrual flow while reducing heat and moisture, helping prevent rashes and irritation even during long hours of wear.
4. How often should I change my pad to avoid rashes?
To avoid period rashes and maintain hygiene, change your pad every 4–6 hours or sooner if it feels wet. Regular changes reduce moisture and friction buildup, which are common causes of rash and irritation. Using breathable, cooling pads like Sofy Cool can also help make extended daytime wear more comfortable.
5. Are period rashes the same as yeast infections?
No. Period rashes are typically irritation caused by friction, heat, and moisture. Yeast infections are caused by fungal overgrowth and may include symptoms like thick, white discharge and intense itching. If irritation persists, worsens, or is accompanied by unusual discharge, consult a healthcare provider to rule out infection.
6. Can cloth pads help prevent period rashes?
Cloth pads can be more breathable than some disposable options, which may reduce heat and moisture build-up. However, they must be cleaned and dried properly. Pads with advanced cooling technology, like Sofy Cool, offer breathability and effective absorbency, making them a convenient option for preventing rashes.
7. Does wearing tight clothing make period rashes worse?
Yes. Tight clothing can trap heat and restrict airflow around the waist and groin area, increasing moisture and friction. This environment makes the skin more prone to rashes. Choose breathable, comfortable underwear and clothing to reduce heat buildup during your period.
8. Can diet or hydration affect period rashes?
Hydration and diet influence skin health overall. Staying well-hydrated supports natural skin balance, while a diet rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants promotes skin resilience. However, localized rashes during periods are primarily related to moisture, heat, and friction, best managed with breathable menstrual products and regular changes.
9. How do I know if I have a period rash?
Period rashes typically present as red, irritated patches of skin in the vulva or groin area, often accompanied by itching or discomfort. They may worsen with sweat and friction. If symptoms include severe pain, unusual discharge, or sores, consult a healthcare provider, as this may indicate infection or another condition.
10. Can Sofy Cool pads be used every period to prevent rashes?
Yes. Sofy Cool pads are designed for daily menstrual comfort and can be used every period. Their breathable design and cooling technology reduce heat and moisture, helping prevent skin irritation and rashes throughout your cycle, especially in hot or humid conditions.
