While pads have been around for a while, panty liners are a relatively new addition to the sanitary napkin industry, especially in Sri Lanka. While you may have heard of panty liners or even use done, you may still not know about the exact uses and benefits of wearing a liner.
So let’s start with the most important question.
What is a panty liner?
It’s much similar to a sanitary napkin, but panty liners are thinner and smaller in size. This pad can be used just like a sanitary napkin to absorb vaginal discharge or a very light flow of menstruation.
Can it be used during my period instead of a sanitary napkin?
It is not advisable to use a panty liner as a pad. Pantyliners are not designed to handle heavy flows.
So when can I use a panty liner?
Panty liners can be used on a daily basis! It can be used to ensure that you feel fresh and clean throughout the day as it can absorb vaginal discharge, prevent stains and keep your underwear clean! It can also be used on the last day of your period when you have spotting.
What do I need to know before I wear a panty liner?
