3 troubles with clothes that are common during menstruation

Here are three things to keep in mind when it comes to fashion during menstruation.

Especially on the 2nd and 3rd days, when there is a lot of menstrual blood, you should pay attention to the fashion. Sometimes you don't have time to change napkins; before you know it, your clothes are stained with blood.


Also, daily napkins with a lot of menstrual blood tend to avoid wearing tight pants and skirts with a tight silhouette. Furthermore, if you wear shorts or wear a bellyband to prevent the cold, you probably choose clothes that don't look bulky or bulky. In this way, during menstruation, you have to devise coordination by assuming everything. While paying attention to these points, we will explain the points of choosing clothes according to your worries.


How to prevent menstrual blood from leaking

The most important thing that women want to avoid during menstruation is leakage of menstrual blood. Not only do you get stains on your clothes, but even if you have blood on your clothes, it's hard to notice, and you may notice it when people around you point it out. Even if you use a lot of daily napkins, blood may leak due to napkin misalignment or a large amount of menstrual blood.

Just in case, it is better not to wear light-colored or white-colored bottoms. Try to choose dark-colored bottoms as much as possible so that leaks won't stand out.

If you want to value a good fit of the napkin, we recommend wearing trousers because it will increase a good fit of the napkin. In addition, if you wear spats or tights under the bottom, the napkin will fit better than if you were wearing only one pair of shorts. It prevents the napkin from slipping due to movement, so you can rest assured even on days when you have a lot of menstrual blood.


How to hide napkins and shorts marks

During menstruation, you worry about the silhouette around the buttocks seen from behind. If you wear a large napkin, your waist will look stiff, and the shorts line for the napkin will stand out, making you conscious of the line of sight from behind.

During menstruation, be aware that the shape of shorts and napkins is not as transparent as possible. It is better to avoid tight pants and enjoy fashion with skirts or wide pants. It can also relieve the feeling of tightness in the body, so there is no need to worry about swelling during menstruation. Among them, dresses and salopettes are recommended because they do not show the lines of the body.

Let's devise not only clothes but also sanitary goods. Using a tampon or a menstrual cup can help prevent menstrual blood from leaking due to the pad slipping and avoid the pad from becoming stiff. Consider using sanitary goods other than napkins, such as sanitary shorts designed to prevent menstrual bleeding by increasing the tightness of the napkin.


How to prevent the body from getting chilled

It is important not to cool the body during menstruation. Try not to cool the area around the navel and the waist, and warm the uterus.

It is a bellyband that is recommended there. The bellyband can cover the uterus and waist well, which helps prevent coldness. Depending on the material, it can be used comfortably even in the summer, so it is also effective against the cold caused by air conditioning.


In addition, if you add heat-generating innerwear or heat-generating stockings that support warmth from the inside, you can further protect your body from the cold. Some designs are not visible as innerwear, and innerwear made of materials that do not interfere with the silhouette of the clothes, so be sure to check them out.


Choose clothes that suit your needs!

Points to be aware of are the odor and stuffiness of menstrual blood. Skirts are more suitable than pants style if breathability is important.

It is also important to choose loose-fitting clothing that does not constrict your body during your period. Tight clothing can lead to poor blood circulation and make menstrual cramps worse. If you usually prefer clothes with a tight silhouette, it is a good idea to bring clothes that are one size larger for menstruation.


Lastly, you may worry about whether to wear pants or a skirt. If you are worried about the napkin slipping, choose the pants style. On the other hand, if you want to avoid feeling breathable and tight, choose a skirt or dress. Please choose according to your troubles during your period.
