Ever woken up to a dreaded stain on your sheets during your sleep? You're not alone!
Nighttime period leaks are one of the most common (and annoying) problems women face during their menstrual cycle. Tossing, turning, and worrying about leaks can rob you of a good night's sleep and let's be honest, periods are exhausting enough without sleep deprivation added to the mix. However, there is one secret for sleeping soundly during periods; finding the best menstrual pads.
Butterfly high absorbency pads keep you dry, comfortable and stress free throughout the night. How? Let’s find out together in this complete guide to your top pads for night needs.
Why Night Leaks Happen: How to Stop them
Night leaks during periods are among the most common problems faced by women. During your sleep, chances are your blood flow will fall on the side or not properly on your period pads. Similarly, due to heavy shifting and shuffling, your irregularly placed pads can also shift, causing stains and leakages. Here are the common reasons why night leak happens:
-
Heavy Flow: Your body might release more menstrual blood when you're relaxed at night. For this reason, it's essential to use heavy period pads, like our Breathable Maxi Thick Fabric soft top sheet, for maximum absorbency.
-
Sleeping Positions: Sleeping on your back or shifting frequently can cause pad slip or blood to fall on the sides. This is why our menstrual period pads come with leak guards and side cottony wings for secure placement.
-
Wrong Pad Choice: If your flow is heavy, using a regular pad at night simply won't cut it. To help prevent this, you must track your flow pattern and choose the right absorbency pad. We have a vast collection of both breathables Maxi Thick and Ultra Thin pads for heavy and light blood flow.
-
Pad Placement: If your pad isn't positioned correctly, it won't absorb effectively. Our sanitary pads for night ensure maximum adhesiveness with side wings, long size, and leak guards for complete protection.
How to Stop Leakage-Best Menstrual Pads
One guaranteed way to stop leakage at night is by finding the proper sanitary napkin for your overnight needs. For instance, our Fabric Soft Maxi Thick Pads overnight is a suitable collection for heavy blood flow days. They help prevent leakage by providing maximum coverage, high absorbency through the fabric soft top sheet, and leak protection by leak guards and side cottony wings.
Top Tips to Find Best Menstrual Pads for Overnight Use
Here is a helpful checklist to find the right hygiene sanitary napkins for your overnight period needs:
Absorbency Level
Absorbency level is the most important factor to consider when choosing your menstrual products. Usually, menstrual pads come in various types catering to your blood flow pattern (mild, light, and heavy blood flow). This is how you choose:
Thin: They are usually ultra thin to avoid bulking for light flow days. For instance, our breathable ultra thin cottony sanitary pads with a cottony top sheet. This lets your skin breathe while providing maximum coverage
Thick/Heavy: Thick period pads are usually ideal for days with heavy blood flow. For example, our Maxi thick fabric soft top sheet with a longer size, a breathable back sheet, and fast absorption.
Tip: Use Maxi thick period pads for the first few menstrual days with heavy blood flow to avoid leakages. Also, use cottony sanitary pads for sensitive skin, like our breathable Cottony Maxi thick and Cottony top sheet ultra-thin pads.
Length and Width
An ideal night pad is usually thicker and wider for proper coverage and absorption. Such pads cover well during shifting and tossing during sleep, hence preventing leakages and stains.
For instance, our menstrual pads usually come in long sizes. This covers well and ensures air circulation to prevent dampness and skin irritations.
Wings vs no Wings
Furthermore, to prevent overnight period leakages, it is recommended to use sanitary products with secure side wings. This ensures better adhesiveness and keeps the pad intact during constant shifting. For this, our breathables collection ensures soft cottony wings on each side for maximum stickiness and security.
Leak Protection Features
Lastly, for night usage, prefer pads with leak protection features such as anti-lock technology, leak guards, etc. Luckily, butterfly pads ensure proper anti-leak protection, with leak guards, side cottony wings, and wider backs.
