Few decades back, women were told "don't use cloth, because germs would stay even after multiple washes, so it can cause various health problems." To prevent it, sanitary pads were introduced. Now you are telling to switch back from pads to clothes!!! Giving cloth a shape of pad doesn't make it a pad!!!

Cloth pads are so unhygienic , the reason we shifted from cloth to disposable. There are biodegradable disposable options for pads too, or you can switch to cups.
I use a fine disposable organic cotton pads (not made of cloth, as those are unhygienic and messy) and intimate wash recommend from a good gynaecologist. Never had issue… for the other points she made, agree with her.
Kyunki agar chalo humne cloth pad use kar bhi liya to fir usse dhup mein sukhana bahat jaruri he to killing the bacterias par hum apne society ki logon ko to dikhake nehin sukha sakte na 🥲🥲🥲
Clothe pads are very inconvenient. During periods all we need is little comfort. Which we will definitely wont find in clothepads. There will always be wetness. And we would have to change the pad more frequently than those commercial sanitary pads.
Yeah n my doctor told me that cloth pad is very bad to use because after use we wash it n even if we use detol or any other thing to clean it perfectly it won't clean as much as it should bee the germs will grow more n more after every use soo its not hygienic
I'm afraid of tampons cuz I think that if their string snaps off, I'm done for 😂😂 But cups make your period easy breezy.. You'll have to get accustomed to it though.. Watch LOTS of videos online then purchase them. It'll take time to get used to it, but once you get accustomed to the cup, you won't even feel like going back to pads 😂

I understand that the Satvic movement aims to encourage a natural, holistic lifestyle, which is a positive direction. However, some areas might not be as practical to apply these changes, such as menstrual hygiene products. While there are concerns around chemicals in disposable pads, cloth pads, which absorb blood, can be difficult to clean thoroughly and potentially unhygienic. Washing them is not always practical, especially in shared bathrooms where it could leave behind odors and stains that are uncomfortable for others. For those of us with conditions like PCOD and heavy flow, the frequent changes required would mean constant washing, which is simply impractical. The idea of needing to buy and wash dozens of cloth pads for each cycle, then drying them in small spaces like apartments, can be overwhelming. Our homes may not have the private space needed for this, and openly drying menstrual products isn’t always possible or comfortable. Instead, promoting biodegradable sanitary pads made from materials like banana fibers would align well with Satvic principles. These eco-friendly pads provide a sustainable alternative without compromising on hygiene. Many startups are using natural fibers that would otherwise go to waste, supporting both sustainability and hygiene. Menstrual cups are another option that provides both convenience and aligns with the Satvic philosophy of simplicity. Science has created these innovations after extensive research, and not all modern solutions are against nature. It’s essential to respect scientific advancements in areas where hygiene and health are top priorities.
I don't deodorants,nail polish,intimate wash but i use those pads and i will use them in the future. I dont want to have those infection by using those cloth

Dear ladies, they are saying for your good to use cloth pads but yeah, it may become breeding ground for germs and fungus. so, their are alternative organic cotton pads available in the market with no harmful chemicals and scents. Please research well and buy them ❤:)
To all those who think cloth pads are unhygienic, no they are not. I have used everything that's there in the market for periods. Commercial pads give me rashes and itchiness everytime I use them. For menstrual cups, I like them but have never been able to find a perfect size for myself. So now I sometimes use a cup along with the cloth pads and the other times just the cloth pads. These days the cloth pads are so well absorbent and easy to use. But of course you need to clean them and sundry them. I have been using the same set of cloth pads from last one year and they are perfectly clean except the wear off. I follow a strict cleaning routine with them (wash it once, soak in hot detergent water, wash again, soak in antibacterial liquid water, then dry in direct sunlight for a few days and then pack and store in the cupboard which is free from any moisture. This has now become a habbit. The best feeling for me is not leaving an imprint on the environment. And yes I never had a single rash since I have started using them. Generally I change twice a day.
Menstrual cups are the best option for reusable period products. The cloth pad just doesn’t makes sense, you need to wash it now and then, let it dry and keep on repeating the tedious cycle. Whereas for menstrual cup, you just rinse the cup and reuse it, best part, they last easily upto 3-4 years. I’ve tried all of the options and after the cup, I’ve never looked back♥️
Though i am a guy but cloth pads arent hygienic, courtesy of auntis, and dadi in family. There was a guy(Arunachalam muruganatham) who appeared on tedx who made sanitary pads for rural women. I think his method is far more viable because the women can make their own pads

@@sonali.gokani Okay! 👍🏼 Thank you for sharing! 🙏🏻 Well! Which type of essential oils to buy? You may have used, so which brands are good, and offer skin-friendly products? ☺️
Cloth pads! Really? I don't understand this nonsense. We always used clothes which were disposed later but that was termed harmful. But re using this used cloth pads and washing it. Do u think its practical ??
We came a long way and changed to sanitary pads but it looks like again we need to time travel back to use those cloth pads... ! Convenience, cost effective and frequency of changes are also the factors that really matters!
I would suggest using menstrual cups instead of cloth pads. The reason I switched to cup was the same as above. I had some issues using pads and menstrual cup solved all of them. AND it's damn comfortable to wear with 10 hrs usage before washing and wearing it again.
Even though our reproductive system are self cleaning but we do not clean them as we go through period, hormonal changes and what not and it leads to irritation and odour.. In that case initimate washes helps a lot.
I use cloth pads since 8 yrs. I don't get any infection. There ll be a drastic difference in the flow after u switch to cloth pad. Anybody who is cursing the cloth pad seems to have not used it. Cloth pad is hygiene until u know how to wash it.
So true. Reduced cramps, less flow, completely got rid of rashes happening during period are the benefits I saw. It’s not that difficult to wash as well. I have been to office with cloth pads and used to change every 4 hours, carrying them in a separate bag. They don’t even smell as bad as disposable pads. I am surprised to see the comments section full of ignorant people talking about not able to use when outside, cannot clean it properly, cannot sanitize it, unhygienic etc. People, please read about reusable cloth pads and get to know the benefits.
Exactly! I have been using them from last 3 years, sometimes coupled with a cup. I am never going back to commercial pads, which are a curse for the environment. I get no rashes, no leaks, no bad smell, and they are so cost effective. I change the set every year because of the wear off, not because of becoming dirty.
We are indebted to you for all the awareness you have been creating. Wish doctors will also be as sensible as u and create this awareness. Live long, happily ❤
I use it only on my left hand and not on my right. If I ever need to use it on my right, I just remove it before eating. Also using transparent nail polish reduced the chipping of nail polish and it stays longer too. But I still don't use it on my right hand just to be safe
Out of these 4, intimate washing it is totally bad because it is going cause ph imbalance instead of acidic vaginal ph which prevents other bac from growing with repetitive washings it is going to change to alkaline! And rest all are not that harmful to be considered not to use! :) pads are used only during periods and they are not that harmful rather if u use non disposable ones if proper hygiene is not maintained it is going to cause allergic rashes and also other infections. And about deodorant it is too less when compared to harmful pollutants u inhale daily. And about nail paint better to avoid it as it also cause ur nails to chip off and make them dry and brittle. :) hope this helps!
I have one thing about the pads. You say that we should use cloth pads, but is it long lasting? Can it even last for 6-7 hours? Females with heavy bleeding can face problems as they're as most of us are school or college going students and working females. So, pls introduce a healthier alternative and which is long lasting.
Consider cloth pads on low flow days when there is too little blood I hate using pads in the last days it comes as irritation I will use pads in the first 2 days and then cloth pads by this I am doin what I can
Using cloth as pad increases the cgances of bacterial infection much more. It is advised to change pad after ever 4 to 5 hours. Using it longer can cause toxic shock syndrome. And last pads are much more convinent than cloth
Suno sabki karo apni mujhe jo comfortable lagta hai jaise jab pehela period hua tha to mummy kapda di thi aur uske baad sanitary pads but jese 3 yrs ke baad 6 months clothe pad acha tha experience se kyuki us time pure din ghar mei rehna tha lockdown ke samay... Phir jab jab ghar mei rehna ho to clothe pad is better agar heavy bleeding nhi ho to😊
I usually have heavy bleeding... So to prevent stain i use pad as the lowest base, above that, i put big cloth folded. As the cloth is little thick, it helps with heavy flow, and the pad below prevent staining. But the most important part is, i always throw these in 3 to 4 hours, and change again. This way lots of good old cotton clothes are used and disposed. Also i always wash them with dettol before use.
The girls who got their periods early like 9 or 10 years old they have to use normalpads these cloth pads are not that good and they can't even. Use mensuration cups or tampon
Exactly I do same but it definitely looks boring weird to me. Also we can apply to legs. Instead of preaching easily on youtube ticktoc why don't these people go out and destroy all companies who sell these products like nail polish from 10 rs to branded ones ponds lux all lipstick companies even moisturizer brands in india or make a petition to save womens health.
Dear girls if u are worried about the pads ..... I do use pad but over it we keep a cotton cloth so that our skin is not in direct touch with it and when it gets dirty we throw it and we don't wash and use it , just a better option can try it...... We tear old well washed cotton cloth and fold it according to the need and use it Hope it helps
I live in Japan and in Japan there is no cloth pad so I have to buy it from store but in my country there is clothe pad but now a days it's so rare to use it I totally can't find cloth pad and I go to school I have so many class that we go outside and mostly in sports class I have to run a lot one time I wore really small size of pad and there was blood in my pant it was good that I had a long skirt so I could hide it
I'm shocked how dump people are in the comments... i get it people were used to use unhygienic cloth in older days... but we're using undergarments which are also made of cloth right?... Or are you using undergarments made of stainless steel?... we have advanced so much now we can sundry the cloth pads use detergent which are antiseptic antifungal ect... Back in the days they didn't had those things... However i complety agree that cloth pads are a headache to use....
cloth pads are not easy to wash as we bleed alot during periods and these can absorb the blood and will take alot time to wash plus it is not convenient for a school going girl
@@doorhandle251 I completed agree, I don't use them personally either. even my mom doesn't use it what I was trying to say was, a lot of people in the comments are saying that cloths pads are not hygienic blah blah but we use the same material as our panties so what's the point of saying it's unhygienic I'm not saying to use cloth pads dear just because it isn't convenient it doesn't mean that we have to be negative about it when in fact it's not
Deodorant and nail polish is definitely not a hygienic options, but sanitary pads?!!! And I started using intimate washes after doctor's advice and definitely got improved after using them❤❤
Guys go for organic and biodegradable pads like the womans company pads...good for health and environment both👍🏻 if you can then use menstrual cups but i cant use them personally so i go for organic pads..
Important fact : Do not use cloth pads without a big emergency,cloth pads cause irritation because you have to wash the bloody thing and dry it and then wear it again whereas if you use disposal/sanitary pads,you don't need to wash or anything,just use and throw it.Sanitary pads are more hygienic than cloth pads.My mother used cloth pads and she told me that washing and wearing was really hard,imagine washing a bloody cloth...terrible!..so ladies out there....DO NOT USE CLOTH PADS,ONLY USE SANITARY/DISPOSAL PADS IF IT IS NOT SO URGENT....
some people may experience sensitivity to certain chemicals in perfumes, majority can use them without harm. be cautious if you have specific sensitivities and opt for fragrance-free or hypoallergenic alternatives.
U must change ur pads every 6 hours otherwise they become culture medias for harmful bacteria... So using cloth pads are not practical at all... Im a doctor so im saying from a medical point of view... Using cloth pads are also very unhygienic...
Intimate washes should be used but not regularly. Some people like me who on travelling uses outside washrooms suffer from rashes n infection and that time intimate washes are a blessing. So , please tell people these products are for occasional use. Don’t befool people by saying a strict no.
For the pads, women get many vaginal/cervical or uterus problems starting with these chemical filled pads. After using them for most of our lives we end up with abnormal cells, cervical cancer or tumours in the womb. Deodorant is used very close to our heart, Again chemical Release into our body. Nail polish is used for nails on hands and feet, our nerves and veins are connected to the back of the nail beds, so the chemical still get into skin and into vital points in our brain and the smell lingers for almost an hour. Make up is also the same, everything we use has chemicals and finds it’s way into our body throughout life.
Out of all these, I just use sanitary pads Can never imagine to shift to cloth pads 🫣 it was a hard time when I had to use cloth pads during early days and it was worst experience … 🙌🏻
I never loved those four unwanted products of mankind even nail colours I don’t like to wear….. now I got another knowledge about sanitary pads thanks 😊
I use non of thses products except period pads. I am allergic to perfumes & body spray. Or anythings thats has strong smell. I use nailpaints in feet but very rearly. I like white nails in hand.
I've been using cloth pads for 2 years now and its much more gentle on my skin compared to sanitary napkins. For those who are saying its unhygienic... you're supposed to change it every few hours, wash it properly (can use dettol liquid as well) and dry it properly.
Agree with everything but using cloth pads ?? Mam kindly don't suggest things you don't have any idea about cloth pads are much more dangerous than normal sanitary pads . Everything that contains chemicals ain't bad and everything natural ain't good
@@s_n_e_h_aaaa koi brand name nahi hai market se cotton clothes lo or pad bana lo itna bhi muskil nhi h or branded hi chahiye toh Amazon pe bahut ache ache brands h
Imo, menstrual cups are a better option than cloth-pads in many ways. It might be tricky to use in the beginning but after some time it gets super-easy and much more comfortable.
I dont like deodorants or mists or perfumes cause i get terrible headaches even when someone else uses these. Instead of pads i use menstrual cup. Intimate washes are a big no no. And nail paints we generally dont apply on our right hands in case we are eating with our hands.
Instead of deodorants use perfume its doesn't cause any harm to skin cause we use it on clothes so it's a better alternative as well as instead of pads use menstrual cup which can be used upto 10 years and does not cause any harm to the intimate area and for the nailpolish one just use fake nails which are easy to remove🙃
Compared to a cloth pad sanitary pads are way better because even if you wash it as someone said germs will stay yes thats true and if you want to use clotmh pads ones and throw, getting a new cloth pads are not affordable. You can use the commercial sanitary pads for 3-4 hours this is way safer option, because the chemical reactions take place if you use them for more than 10 hours. The cloth pads could stain your clothes mainly for the kids basically they carry heavy bags for weight and they run were surely the cloth pad will stain and even while sleeping it will stain unless than sanitary pads this won't take place. Think about this
We can us roll on deodorants.Anti perspirents block the pores.and essential oils should be diluted before application on the skin as they are very strong and can cause damage.. Thanks.
All who say cloth bads are unhygienic, it absolutely wrong. You can wash them properly so its no issue. Other wise you can use menstrual cups. But fanric pads are important because not every woman can wear the cup. These modern pads are very different to just wrapping a old cloth in the underwear.
You dont need intimate wash, but EVERYONE MUST wash/rinse yourselves after doing business 1 n 2 in the bathroom. Very important for hygiene as you will feel fresh n confident always😊
I only use nail paints in my left hand! As I think I may ingest nailpolish if it was in my right hand. I don't wear nailpolish nowadays😅 I only wear henna from my garden. The orange crescent look looks like an nail art to me don't know why
Initially in my grandmother’s generation they used Cloth pad but then people came up saying it’s unhygienic and umpteen no of products came into market and now we are back to cloth era the only difference is they used to used old cotton clothes already available at home now it is being sold by some companies 😂😂😂😂
I use Nua sanitary pads. They're expensive, but at least they don’t give me rashes like Stayfree, Whisper & Sofy used to give. Also, they're eco-friendly & use less chemicals, I guess.

Whereas for menstrual cup, you just rinse the cup and reuse it, best part, they last easily upto 3-4 years. I’ve tried all of the options and after the cup, I’ve never looked back♥️
Does hymen will block?
Not everyone can use cups, and cloth pads aren't comfortable!
Menstrual cups are the best
They save your money, save you from harsh chemicals and they are eco-friendly ❤
kya menstrual cup use karna health ke liye shi h
@@bablyjat4968 Yes, They are safe for our health too.
Though i am a guy but cloth pads arent hygienic, courtesy of auntis, and dadi in family. There was a guy(Arunachalam muruganatham) who appeared on tedx who made sanitary pads for rural women. I think his method is far more viable because the women can make their own pads
Nail paints seep into the body through nails n affect internal organs too
Just use menstrual cups they are better than anything or even menstrual discs..it can be little difficult at first but they are great ❤😅
People use deos as armpit antiperspirants. I use alum water sprays made at home with rose or plain water. Add your favorite essential oil only if you wish, else not needed. Anyway deos are not made for fragrance, perfumes are.
How do you make alum water? May you share the method?
And what does it do, what are its benefits? 🤔
@@saurabhkesharwani6143 200ml rose water or distilled or filtered water. 1 spoon of alum. Fill in a spray bottle and move it around till it dissolves just like salt. Add your favorite essential oil only if needed, i don't. Go minimal.
@@sonali.gokani Okay! 👍🏼
Thank you for sharing! 🙏🏻
Well! Which type of essential oils to buy?
You may have used, so which brands are good, and offer skin-friendly products? ☺️
@@saurabhkesharwani6143 I never add it. I go minimal. I tried once but it burns my armpit pores so i chucked it. :)
I have been using period cups since 3+ years and it's the best thing to use during periods.
Cloth pads!
Really? I don't understand this nonsense.
We always used clothes which were disposed later but that was termed harmful. But re using this used cloth pads and washing it. Do u think its practical ??
We came a long way and changed to sanitary pads but it looks like again we need to time travel back to use those cloth pads... ! Convenience, cost effective and frequency of changes are also the factors that really matters!
I would suggest using menstrual cups instead of cloth pads. The reason I switched to cup was the same as above. I had some issues using pads and menstrual cup solved all of them. AND it's damn comfortable to wear with 10 hrs usage before washing and wearing it again.
So many people have suggested menstrual cups I m sure she will come up with a reel mentioning that cups are also toxics 😂😂 then what will we use??😂😂
Even though our reproductive system are self cleaning but we do not clean them as we go through period, hormonal changes and what not and it leads to irritation and odour.. In that case initimate washes helps a lot.
I use cloth pads since 8 yrs. I don't get any infection. There ll be a drastic difference in the flow after u switch to cloth pad. Anybody who is cursing the cloth pad seems to have not used it. Cloth pad is hygiene until u know how to wash it.
So true. Reduced cramps, less flow, completely got rid of rashes happening during period are the benefits I saw.
It’s not that difficult to wash as well. I have been to office with cloth pads and used to change every 4 hours, carrying them in a separate bag. They don’t even smell as bad as disposable pads. I am surprised to see the comments section full of ignorant people talking about not able to use when outside, cannot clean it properly, cannot sanitize it, unhygienic etc. People, please read about reusable cloth pads and get to know the benefits.
How to clean cloth pad if u share it....will be helpfull for me
Which cloth pads are you using can you send the link please
Exactly! I have been using them from last 3 years, sometimes coupled with a cup. I am never going back to commercial pads, which are a curse for the environment. I get no rashes, no leaks, no bad smell, and they are so cost effective. I change the set every year because of the wear off, not because of becoming dirty.
@@rupalgupta5084can you please explain in detail, how to clean it and from where to buy it
We are indebted to you for all the awareness you have been creating. Wish doctors will also be as sensible as u and create this awareness. Live long, happily ❤
Haha ha pls check wt she says before believing it and questioning the sensibility of doctors
That's why I don't use nail paint😅
Me too
Use mehendi
I use it only on my left hand and not on my right. If I ever need to use it on my right, I just remove it before eating. Also using transparent nail polish reduced the chipping of nail polish and it stays longer too. But I still don't use it on my right hand just to be safe
Out of these 4, intimate washing it is totally bad because it is going cause ph imbalance instead of acidic vaginal ph which prevents other bac from growing with repetitive washings it is going to change to alkaline! And rest all are not that harmful to be considered not to use! :) pads are used only during periods and they are not that harmful rather if u use non disposable ones if proper hygiene is not maintained it is going to cause allergic rashes and also other infections. And about deodorant it is too less when compared to harmful pollutants u inhale daily. And about nail paint better to avoid it as it also cause ur nails to chip off and make them dry and brittle. :) hope this helps!
I have one thing about the pads.
You say that we should use cloth pads, but is it long lasting? Can it even last for 6-7 hours? Females with heavy bleeding can face problems as they're as most of us are school or college going students and working females.
So, pls introduce a healthier alternative and which is long lasting.
Consider cloth pads on low flow days when there is too little blood I hate using pads in the last days it comes as irritation I will use pads in the first 2 days and then cloth pads by this I am doin what I can
@@Rain272-v6v Pls cloth pads are so unhygienic
Using cloth as pad increases the cgances of bacterial infection much more.
It is advised to change pad after ever 4 to 5 hours. Using it longer can cause toxic shock syndrome. And last pads are much more convinent than cloth
I use nail past in the past very much...but now i stopped using them!
Suno sabki karo apni mujhe jo comfortable lagta hai jaise jab pehela period hua tha to mummy kapda di thi aur uske baad sanitary pads but jese 3 yrs ke baad 6 months clothe pad acha tha experience se kyuki us time pure din ghar mei rehna tha lockdown ke samay... Phir jab jab ghar mei rehna ho to clothe pad is better agar heavy bleeding nhi ho to😊
I usually have heavy bleeding... So to prevent stain i use pad as the lowest base, above that, i put big cloth folded. As the cloth is little thick, it helps with heavy flow, and the pad below prevent staining.
But the most important part is, i always throw these in 3 to 4 hours, and change again. This way lots of good old cotton clothes are used and disposed. Also i always wash them with dettol before use.
The girls who got their periods early like 9 or 10 years old they have to use normalpads these cloth pads are not that good and they can't even. Use mensuration cups or tampon
Just don't apply nail paint on the right hand you can obviously use it on left hand
Logic ??
Exactly what I do!
@@creativemoments7869we eat with our right hand so we can apply nail paint on our left hand.
Exactly I do same but it definitely looks boring weird to me. Also we can apply to legs. Instead of preaching easily on youtube ticktoc why don't these people go out and destroy all companies who sell these products like nail polish from 10 rs to branded ones ponds lux all lipstick companies even moisturizer brands in india or make a petition to save womens health.
Dear girls if u are worried about the pads ..... I do use pad but over it we keep a cotton cloth so that our skin is not in direct touch with it and when it gets dirty we throw it and we don't wash and use it , just a better option can try it......
We tear old well washed cotton cloth and fold it according to the need and use it
Hope it helps
Now i know why my mom tells me to paint the nail in my left hand only
I live in Japan and in Japan there is no cloth pad so I have to buy it from store but in my country there is clothe pad but now a days it's so rare to use it I totally can't find cloth pad and I go to school I have so many class that we go outside and mostly in sports class I have to run a lot one time I wore really small size of pad and there was blood in my pant it was good that I had a long skirt so I could hide it
I'm shocked how dump people are in the comments... i get it people were used to use unhygienic cloth in older days... but we're using undergarments which are also made of cloth right?... Or are you using undergarments made of stainless steel?... we have advanced so much now we can sundry the cloth pads use detergent which are antiseptic antifungal ect... Back in the days they didn't had those things... However i complety agree that cloth pads are a headache to use....
cloth pads are not easy to wash as we bleed alot during periods and these can absorb the blood and will take alot time to wash
plus it is not convenient for a school going girl
@@doorhandle251 I completed agree, I don't use them personally either. even my mom doesn't use it what I was trying to say was, a lot of people in the comments are saying that cloths pads are not hygienic blah blah but we use the same material as our panties so what's the point of saying it's unhygienic I'm not saying to use cloth pads dear just because it isn't convenient it doesn't mean that we have to be negative about it when in fact it's not
Deodorants are not used as perfumes, they are used under arms.
Do you know someone our body is self detoxifying you don't need to detox it unless you have some liver or kidney problems
If you don't want to use cloth pads so you can use menstrual cup
Edit : my English is weak sorry if any mistakes
Using cloth pads as a working woman is going to be pure torture. Instead use menustral cups and Tampons
Deodorant and nail polish is definitely not a hygienic options, but sanitary pads?!!! And I started using intimate washes after doctor's advice and definitely got improved after using them❤❤
Guys go for organic and biodegradable pads like the womans company pads...good for health and environment both👍🏻 if you can then use menstrual cups but i cant use them personally so i go for organic pads..
Important fact : Do not use cloth pads without a big emergency,cloth pads cause irritation because you have to wash the bloody thing and dry it and then wear it again whereas if you use disposal/sanitary pads,you don't need to wash or anything,just use and throw it.Sanitary pads are more hygienic than cloth pads.My mother used cloth pads and she told me that washing and wearing was really hard,imagine washing a bloody cloth...terrible!..so ladies out there....DO NOT USE CLOTH PADS,ONLY USE SANITARY/DISPOSAL PADS IF IT IS NOT SO URGENT....
You applied so much makeup that too is toxic
Destroyed😂
Poor observational skills you have. She just just eyeliner/kajal and lil bit of bb cream or concealer.
@@Cherry_picked00 just eyeliner ,bb cream , concealer is too much toxic
Hair straightener to harm hai😂
some people may experience sensitivity to certain chemicals in perfumes, majority can use them without harm. be cautious if you have specific sensitivities and opt for fragrance-free or hypoallergenic alternatives.
U must change ur pads every 6 hours otherwise they become culture medias for harmful bacteria... So using cloth pads are not practical at all... Im a doctor so im saying from a medical point of view... Using cloth pads are also very unhygienic...
True😊
Intimate washes should be used but not regularly. Some people like me who on travelling uses outside washrooms suffer from rashes n infection and that time intimate washes are a blessing.
So , please tell people these products are for occasional use. Don’t befool people by saying a strict no.
And what about the Kajal that you are applying ? I mean is this home-made. If Yes, then please share the method to make it at home.
Ask your mom or grandma to make it for you if you are an indian cuz indian moms make best kajal
For the pads, women get many vaginal/cervical or uterus problems starting with these chemical filled pads. After using them for most of our lives we end up with abnormal cells, cervical cancer or tumours in the womb.
Deodorant is used very close to our heart, Again chemical Release into our body. Nail polish is used for nails on hands and feet, our nerves and veins are connected to the back of the nail beds, so the chemical still get into skin and into vital points in our brain and the smell lingers for almost an hour. Make up is also the same, everything we use has chemicals and finds it’s way into our body throughout life.
Use menstrual cup instead of pads. it is the best alternative. 😊
Out of all these, I just use sanitary pads
Can never imagine to shift to cloth pads 🫣 it was a hard time when I had to use cloth pads during early days and it was worst experience … 🙌🏻
Essential oils are very concentrated they should not be applied on skin directly without diluting them with some carrier oil...
Absolutely 💯 right 👍 Radhe Radhe 🙏💐☺
Kaya passand hai
I never loved those four unwanted products of mankind even nail colours I don’t like to wear….. now I got another knowledge about sanitary pads thanks 😊
I use only stay free pads,✌️
Intimate wash is a life saver when u have nasty discharge …. Or infections
Alum stone makes a great deodorant
Is it to be placed in the armpits?

I use non of thses products except period pads. I am allergic to perfumes & body spray. Or anythings thats has strong smell. I use nailpaints in feet but very rearly. I like white nails in hand.
Relax guys she uses at least most of it behind the screen 😅
Docs say even fragrance from essential oils can irritate sensitive skin so best to go fragrance free altogether.
Itni garmi meh kaise use karu oils
I've been using cloth pads for 2 years now and its much more gentle on my skin compared to sanitary napkins.
For those who are saying its unhygienic... you're supposed to change it every few hours, wash it properly (can use dettol liquid as well) and dry it properly.
Its not convenient for students and working people
Thanku didi aapki bato se meri aajke kul gai
Misty deodorants block sweat glands , then where does essential oils remain?
Agree with everything but using cloth pads ?? Mam kindly don't suggest things you don't have any idea about cloth pads are much more dangerous than normal sanitary pads . Everything that contains chemicals ain't bad and everything natural ain't good
Use cotton clothes pad 😊
You can used cotton pads they are not harmful i used that
@@Tales_of_pinki me too
i always use cotton clothes pad
Even when I have to go to work

I don't how can someone have gust to wash blood soaked cloth pad to reuse it again .I can never.
I use none of these products 😌✌️
Imo, menstrual cups are a better option than cloth-pads in many ways. It might be tricky to use in the beginning but after some time it gets super-easy and much more comfortable.
Agar English m hi video bananie h to alag sa channel bana do uske liye
I use menstrual cup. It's life saver truly. No itchiness, no odour.
So you just bought one to show us 😂 ?
There are eco-friendly sanitary pads like peesafe,carmesi.you can also use menstrual cups.
I dont like deodorants or mists or perfumes cause i get terrible headaches even when someone else uses these.
Instead of pads i use menstrual cup.
Intimate washes are a big no no.
And nail paints we generally dont apply on our right hands in case we are eating with our hands.
I use sanitary pads when outside, cotton cloths when at home. Iam comfortable with both. Mostly i myself wash my cotton clothes.
Instead of deodorants use perfume its doesn't cause any harm to skin cause we use it on clothes so it's a better alternative as well as instead of pads use menstrual cup which can be used upto 10 years and does not cause any harm to the intimate area and for the nailpolish one just use fake nails which are easy to remove🙃
Cloth pads are really good for mother nature and earth which are actually made with cloth which is good and is rash free and hassle free
I use lavender essential oil on my dress but skin noo2222 can irritate they r very concentrated
Always thankful to you for providing this information
Compared to a cloth pad sanitary pads are way better because even if you wash it as someone said germs will stay yes thats true and if you want to use clotmh pads ones and throw, getting a new cloth pads are not affordable. You can use the commercial sanitary pads for 3-4 hours this is way safer option, because the chemical reactions take place if you use them for more than 10 hours. The cloth pads could stain your clothes mainly for the kids basically they carry heavy bags for weight and they run were surely the cloth pad will stain and even while sleeping it will stain unless than sanitary pads this won't take place. Think about this
We can us roll on deodorants.Anti perspirents block the pores.and essential oils should be diluted before application on the skin as they are very strong and can cause damage.. Thanks.
All who say cloth bads are unhygienic, it absolutely wrong. You can wash them properly so its no issue. Other wise you can use menstrual cups. But fanric pads are important because not every woman can wear the cup. These modern pads are very different to just wrapping a old cloth in the underwear.
You dont need intimate wash, but EVERYONE MUST wash/rinse yourselves after doing business 1 n 2 in the bathroom. Very important for hygiene as you will feel fresh n confident always😊
Please use mensural cup during periods..Its eco-friendly, comfort and not cost effective ❤
Menstural cup is a life changing product once you use u feel why u not used it before❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Be safe sis... since we're in a place called world, but full of devils from hell
Cloth pad and cup are dangerous if we didn't clean it properly, it should be cleaned and sterilized porperply otherwise it will cause great damage
I only use nail paints in my left hand! As I think I may ingest nailpolish if it was in my right hand. I don't wear nailpolish nowadays😅 I only wear henna from my garden. The orange crescent look looks like an nail art to me don't know why
Thank You Very Much for this Knowledge
Initially in my grandmother’s generation they used Cloth pad but then people came up saying it’s unhygienic and umpteen no of products came into market and now we are back to cloth era the only difference is they used to used old cotton clothes already available at home now it is being sold by some companies 😂😂😂😂
I use Nua sanitary pads. They're expensive, but at least they don’t give me rashes like Stayfree, Whisper & Sofy used to give. Also, they're eco-friendly & use less chemicals, I guess.
