The choice of female pads is growing every year, but it is not worthwhile to determine, by experiment, which of them are really effective and high-quality. Our review will help you choose the most reliable pads for every day, for the period of menstruation and for the first days after birth.
For critical days
Silko - therapeutic and preventive pads
These Japanese gaskets have gained popularity through the use of anions - negatively charged particles. They do an excellent job of neutralizing unpleasant odors and disinfects the surface, making the napkin absolutely safe for women's health. But since the production of anions is activated in conditions of high humidity, it is impossible to store packaging in the bathroom.
Pros:
- Suitable for women with increased sensitivity to other hygiene products;
- They are an excellent means of preventing inflammation;
- Gaskets can be processed in the production of plant extracts (aloe, tea tree, peppermint), have an antibacterial effect;
- They absorb moisture very quickly, without letting it out, and remain dry for a long time.
Minuses:
- A rather big cost, reaching 200 rubles per pack.
Ola! - the safest hygiene products
After the independent tests, these cheap Russian-made hygiene products were recognized to be the highest quality and safest gaskets. The range also pleases: there are pads for heavy and weak discharge, nightly and even scented napkins, with a subtle smell of flowers.
Pros:
- Convenient packaging (both general and individual on each gasket), which opens easily;
- The complete absence of harmful substances in the composition of materials;
- Neutral pH - such hygiene bags do not cause burning or irritation of the skin and mucous membranes;

Minuses:
- The apparent savings in the purchase of these pads is crossed out by the need for more frequent replacement - they absorb very little.
Always - the best pads for night use.
Megopopulyarnye from us, though not cheap pads, many buy because of intrusive advertising. Nevertheless, Always and indeed show themselves well, especially at night and in the first days of the cycle. At the same time, most of the napkins in the range of the manufacturer are ultra-thin, so that they do not interfere with or show through the clothes.
Pros:
- Do not let moisture back through the top layer;
- There are very "roomy" pads for 6 drops;

Minuses:
- Too large mesh of the upper layer sticks to the skin and can cause discomfort.
Urological and gynecological
Seni Lady - the best for the postpartum period
Although Seni pads are stated as urological, they are surprisingly well suited to women in the postpartum period, as well as those who have undergone gynecological surgery or suffer from heavy menstruation. At the same time, their thickness is usually small (in the case of 2-3 drops) - as in standard hygiene bags, but they absorb much more.
Pros:
- Anatomically adjusted form due to which the pads do not rub the skin and do not interfere with movement;
- Fit snugly to the body, and bumpers like those that are made on baby diapers, do not allow leakage;
- Good breathability unlike many other urological pads;

- Have antibacterial impregnation;
- Securely attached even to disposable panties;
- The edges of the large pads (from 5 "drops" and above) can be wrapped around the edges of the linen;

Minuses:
- Despite the impressive width, Seni Lady is shorter than the usual "night", and if you sleep on your back, there is a risk of leakage.
Tena Lady - the fastest
These urological pads are used strictly for their intended purpose - with thick bloody discharge they cope much worse than with liquid. The manufacturer’s product range includes both daily wipes, which solve minor leakage problems, and highly absorbent products. It is only necessary to choose the right type.
Pros:
- The soft and nice on the touch top layer, not causing allergies or irritation;
- The high absorbency reaching 400 ml, and the moisture penetrates inside instantly;
- The absorbent is located across the entire width of the gasket, and not just in the middle;
- Do not let the smell out;
- A wide adhesive strip on the back of the gasket, but it is well attached only to cotton underwear;
- Always on sale.
Minuses:
- Usually they go without wings because of what they are fixed not reliably.
Daily
Discreet - the thinnest
Everyday Discreet is really as thin as napkins. This is especially noticeable when peeling off the protective tape, because of which they appear thicker. The manufacturer has several types of such gaskets, but there is not much difference between them - more often they differ from each other only by their fragrance.

Minuses:
- Ultra-thin pads have to be changed more often than other daily;
- For women with sensitive skin, it is better to stop using flavored products, choosing the odorless version (Discreet Air).
Kotex - for those with sensitive skin
Due to the bright design, the hygiene products of this brand are automatically ranked as youth. In fact, they are not much different from other pads - at least, there is no age limit for Kotex daily napkins.
Pros:
- Most of the presented species are odorless and do not cause allergies (however, flavored versions are also available);
- Those pads that come with a scent exude a subtle scent;
- Notches along the contour of the napkins allow you to easily attach them to the panties, slipy or tanga;
- Soft and pleasant surface;
- Thin enough not to interfere, but at the same time well absorb secretions.
Minuses:
- There are napkins in individual packaging, but they are thick and more suitable for the last days of menstruation.
