1. Why medical gauze is ideal for postpartum pads?
100% cotton medical gauze is the best option for postpartum because it is soft and more breathable, making it perfect for recovering skin. The medical gauze surface does not adhere to stitches or wounds, avoiding discomfort and facilitating healing. In addition, its delicate texture minimizes friction, allowing greater comfort and reducing the risk of infections.
2. How many boxes should I buy for postpartum?
The number of pads you will need will depend on your bleeding. It is usually most abundant in the first few days and then gradually decreases, usually lasting between 10 and 20 days. We recommend starting with at least 3 or 4 boxes to cover the first week. If your flow is heavier, you may need more. Remember that each box contains 8 compresses.
3. Are they suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, they are designed specifically for sensitive postpartum skin. They are breathable and free of irritating fragrances and chemicals.
4. How many pads come in a package?
Each package includes 8 pads.
5. Are they absorbent enough for postpartum bleeding?
Yes, their absorbent core is designed to handle postpartum bleeding without leaks, but we recommend changing them every 4 or 5 hours for the first few days especially.
6. Do they have adhesive to hold them on underwear?
Yes, they feature non-toxic adhesive for secure attachment without compromising comfort or breathability.
7. Can these be used with postpartum disposable underwear?
Yes, their ultra-thin and flexible design makes them compatible with most disposable panties and postpartum underwear.
8. Can they be used for other stages of the menstrual cycle?
Yes, although they are optimized for postpartum, they can also be used for heavy bleeding or during the night due to their high absorption.
