Patient's question:
I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? What are the bad effects of using sanitary pads for a long time on the body?Doctor's answer:
Long-term use of sanitary pads can significantly increase local humidity and temperature, especially in humid and hot climates. This not only creates favorable conditions for the growth of bacteria and fungi but also disrupts the pH balance of the vagina, reducing the local protective barrier function, which can lead to vaginitis. The occurrence of gynecological diseases not only affects a woman's life but can also lead to the development of gynecological conditions. Therefore, it is best to visit the gynecology department of a hospital for a check-up, identify the cause, and receive targeted treatment. In daily life, it is important to drink more water and pay attention to personal hygiene.
