How to maintain hygiene during periods | Menstrual Hygiene Day 2022 | AakashHealthcare

Dr. Shilpa Ghosh, Director of the Obstetrics & Gynaecology department at Aakash Healthcare, Dwarka is talking about maintaining menstrual hygiene during periods. Many patients often ask how to take care of hygiene during the period. Firstly, one should know what to use for menstrual hygiene? You can use disposable items such as sanitary pads, tampons, or menstrual cups. You should store it in a clean place, wrap it and keep it in your purse. Storing in an unhygienic place can be a source of bacterial infection. ► The cotton layered sanitary is better, or else can cause irritation. What are the precautions before using sanitary pads? Wash your hands thoroughly before and after using a pad or a tampon. You should wrap it in paper and dump it in a dustbin. You should not flush these items. ► Now, let’s understand how to wash the perineal area. You can use warm water to clean the perineal area. There is no need for any strong chemical for this. Please wash it from front to back. The bacteria around the anus can infect if you wash from back to front. ► The Patients ask about vaginal douching i.e., should the vagina be cleaned from the inside. The answer is no, you should not do vaginal douching because it cleans itself. Patients also ask how frequently they should change their pads or tampons. The Pad should be changed every 4-6 hours. ► Should it be changed even if the bleeding is less or it is not full? The answer is yes; it should be changed because the chances of getting infected are more due to moisture and blood products. You should not use tampons for more than 4-6 hours because the probability of toxic shock syndrome may occur which is very dangerous for the female. ► Many patients use menstrual cups these days. It can be sued for 10-12 hours but you should wash it thoroughly, clean it thoroughly, and see the guidelines written on the menstrual cup. So, I want you to be confident. I don’t want anything that keeps you down during your periods. So, go on. The World Menstrual Hygiene Day is on the 28th of this month. Please take care of yourself. #Menstruation #MenstrualHygiene #AakashHealthcare #menstrualhygieneday2022 #MenstrualCycle #MaintainingHygieneDuringPeriods #FeminineHygieneTips CHAPTER 0:00 Intro 0:31 Using Disposable Items 0:38 Menstrual Hygiene tips 01:00 Precaution 01:11 Disposing sanitary pad 01:21 Washing Perineal area 01:58 Changing Tampoons & sanitary pad 2:31 Using Menstrual Cups Dr. Shilpa Ghosh, Director Obstetrics & Gynaecology at Aakash Healthcare -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Visit Website: www.aakashhealthcare.com Write your concerns at: [email protected] To Book Appointment: +91 88000 15905 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Like, Share, and Subscribe to our channel for health-related information    / aakashhealthcare   -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Follow for daily updates: ► Facebook:   / aakashhealthcare   ► Instagram:   / aakashhealthcare   ► Twitter:   / aakashhssh
