JAKARTA - Women who are tentatively advised to change sanitary napkins to three to four hours to prevent bacterial infection in reproductive devices. This change needs to be done to reduce the risk of bacterial infection in reproductive devices.

"Most women replace their sanitary napkins based on blood volume," said obstetrician and gynecologist from Bijnor, India, Sharma, quoted from the health shots on Saturday, November 11.

In fact, said Sharma, both high and low menstrual blood volume, sanitary napkins must still be replaced every four hours.

In addition, Sharma also said that not changing sanitary napkins every four hours can also trigger other problems in reproductive devices, such as itching, excessive whiteness, skin rashes, and even urine tract infections.

In line with Sharma, Marketing Manager of Hers Protex Stella Eidelina also recommends women who are menstruating to change sanitary napkins to three to four hours to keep reproductive equipment clean.

"Most people just change when taking a shower in the morning and taking a shower at night, morning and evening," said Stella, quoted from ANTARA, Saturday, November 11.

Especially, said Stella, when her menstruation is fast. Changing sanitary napkins once every four hours should be done to prevent the growth of bacteria that threaten the health of reproductive devices.

Therefore, even though the sanitary napkins are not full, it is better to replace them every four hours to maintain cleanliness during menstruation.
