No sweat!
Experts say exercise in your period is absolutely good – and even useful – because the fitness of the gym can reduce menstrual pain, strengthen your mood, and potentially relieve bloating.
If you are planning to embrace outdoor workouts this summer, you may want to take extra care by choosing feminine products that offer protection while also helping to manage sweat, smell and chaffing.
nevertheless It is generally sure to exercise while wearing a buffer, founder and CEO of care brand for the non -oxic, sustainable period, for your V warnings on a possible issue of sweaty, high -impact hygiene.
“Sweat tends to accumulate around the vagina and interior, creating a damp environment, making the buffer string wet,” Katie Diani Post told. “A wet range can lead to an increase in the growth of bacteria and higher risk of uti and yeast infections.”
Pads, menstrual cups, discs or interior of the athletic period can be better options.
For their part, tampons have recently set fire to concerns about their safety and potential health risks.
A shocking study of 2024 found lead, arsenic and other heavy toxic metals in some buffer brands, causing an investigation by the Food and Drug Administration.
Initial review of the agency’s literature did not identify security concerns with the use of the buffer and exposure of pollutants.
The FDA is also performing laboratory tests to determine if the metals are released from the buffer materials in the body.
Dr Alessandra Hirsch, an OB/Gyn in Newy York-Preresbyterian/Columbia University Center Medical Center, stressed that the 2024 study did not research if the metals were absorbed through vaginal lining.
“A substance is only” toxic “if it reaches vital organs in a sufficient amount of enough to cause damage, which this work did not investigate,” Hirsch the post told.
“The American College of Medical Toxicology issued a statement last year in response to this paper to provide individuals with menstruation that there is still no evidence that buffers cause metal poisoning.”
As its investigation continues, FDA “continues to recommend FDA cleared tampons as a safe” for menstrual use.
“Much more study and research is required, and there are currently no recommendations not to use tampons,” said Dr. Mitchell Kramer, director of obstetric and gynecological strategy and clinical integration at Northwell Hospital for The Post.
“There are certain ways to minimize the risk,” he added. “Use 100% organic cotton tampons that do not contain any coloring or aroma, avoid synthetic fiber tampons, often change tampons (this also minimizes the risk of toxic shock syndrome), and use tampons for the minimum amount of time that is comfortable during the period.”
Toxic shock syndrome (TSS) is a rare but potentially threatening disease caused by bacterial toxins.
A remaining tampon in a long time can become a breeding soil for bacteria that cause TSS, bacterial vaginosis and infections of the vaginal yeast.
FDA recommends changing tampons every four to eight hours to maintain good hygiene and reduce the risk of bacterial growth and TSS.
That is why buffers may not be the best solution during sleep, walks and play out for a long time, Diancade said.
“These situations can make your buffer change more difficult in time,” she added. “Menstrual cups and drives are great alternatives – they offer longer clothing time and more ease for prolonged periods without access to a bathroom.”
Menstrual discs are created to sit in the space behind the cervix, while the menstrual cups are usually positioned slightly below the cervix.
The cup should fit well. The diar said a wrong cup may flow or move during physical activity, especially for those with a high or low uterine neck.
Hirsch warns that a properly cleaned menstrual cup can increase the risk of fungal infections, while pads or underwear can cause local allergic reactions such as redness and itching.
“All this means that, unfortunately, the products produced all carry an unknown danger, which we believe are quite small,” Hirsch said. “For now, the best way to decide for a period product is to choose the best fit for your lifestyle.”
If none of these options work for you, there is always free bleeding.
