All women are different. What is good for one person can be harmful to another, and vice versa.

General guidelines:

First of all, before using panty liners, make sure they have pores and are made to breathe,  without plastic protection. If the crotch does not get air, moisture will constantly exist, which increases the chance of infections.

You need to change posts at least 4 to 6 times a day.

It is important that you wash your hands properly both before and after you have been to the toilet, as well as when handling bandages, tampons or panty liners.

1. You should not shave the abdomen, as the hairs protect the area.
2. Good personal hygiene is important, especially during menstruation.
3. Avoid powder soaps, as these can upset the pH balance of the abdomen. Neutral soaps or those sold specifically for use in this area, come in a variety of editions, and ensure good intimate hygiene.   It is best to buy those with a balanced pH value, which contributes to a healthy bacterial flora.
4. Wear cotton underwear, as this can breathe.
5. Avoid wearing tight pants for a long time, as it gets clammy and damp at the bottom, which creates perfect conditions for bacterial growth .
6. Do not wear clothes made of synthetic materials.
7. Sleep in spacious clothes.
8. Avoid sitting for extended periods.
9. Do not use intimate deodorants, as perfume can cause irritation.
10. Keep the area as dry as possible.

Prolonged use of antibiotics, pregnancy and diabetes are all factors that can increase the chances of infection.  If you belong to one or more of these categories, you need to be even more careful.

• An increased amount of discharge.
• Change in the color or consistency of the discharge.
• Bad-smelling discharge.
• Pain or burning when urinating.
• Pain during intercourse.

Many women avoid seeing a doctor, either out of fear or because they find it embarrassing. In the meantime, the infection gets worse and more difficult to treat.

If you suspect a genital infection, avoid self-medication and consult a doctor. If treated early, it is usually easy to cure.  Self-medication can aggravate the situation.

It is important that your doctor gives you the right medicine.  If you suspect an abdominal infection, you must stop using panty liners. An abdominal infection that is not treated properly can lead to a urinary tract infection, with serious health consequences. Experts claim that most women have had, or will have, some form of abdominal infection. Isn’t it better to basically prevent them?
