Choose your period product smartly.

Period products should be changed on a regular basis to ensure adequate hygiene and avoid infections.

Experts recommend changing pads every four-six hours, while tampons and menstrual cups can be changed every six-eight hours.

Always wash your hands before and after handling period products.

Avoid using soap or vaginal hygiene products in the genital area.

They can disrupt the natural balance and cause irritation, inflammation, and infections.

Wearing underwear made of a loose, breezy fabric will help you maintain proper menstrual hygiene.

Showering at least twice a day is one of the best ways to stay clean and fresh.

A hot water shower might help you feel more relaxed and refreshed.

It also eases menstrual cramps and pain.

Drink plenty of water to avoid cramps and bloating, and limit your coffee and alcohol intake.

If you are experiencing odd symptoms, seek advice and help from a healthcare specialist.
