Abstract

During menstruation pain, anxiety, menstrual hygiene, timely changing of sanitary pads and a lot of other problems have to be dealt with besides the grueling everyday routines. We are looking into the details of pad related problem which have been gathered by a huge survey of girls within the age group 17-23. In particular, the low absorbency of the pad, itchiness, and rashes caused, and discomfort caused via current pads in an affordable range are some of the issues we have tried to focus upon for our design of the sanitary pad. State of the art core-sheath yarn technique using super-absorbing microfibers and biodegradable bamboo fibers are the major components of our re-designed pads – both of which are a major upgrade from the existing solutions while still being affordable.
