We recommend starting with a set of 4-6 pads and eventually increasing as required.
To wash your cloth pad, soak them in cold water for 15-20 minutes after use, hand wash them with cold water and detergent or soap, and dry them in a ventilated area, in sunlight (acts as a disinfectant). Cloth pads should be completely dry before reuse. Use of an iron to dry cloth pads may affect its shelf life.
Boondh’s cloth pads offer an environmentally friendly alternative to disposable sanitary napkins (DSNs). Layers of cotton are stitched into a shape that resembles a DSN, except that as compared to the latter’s lifetime utility of 4-6 hours, cloth pads can be reused for upto 5 years with proper maintenance. Each pad can be used for anywhere between 120-150 washes (approx. 5 years for an average 3-5 day bleeding period.
