A Femi.Eko® menstrual pad is the safest way to protect against leaks when inserted correctly. To prevent leaks, make sure the menstrual pad is placed behind the pubic bone and inserted high and deep enough to reach the cervix. You should empty the menstrual pad at least once every 8-12 hours, depending on your bleeding level, to avoid leaks. You can also empty the menstrual pad yourself when you go to the toilet, but read the instructions for this self-emptying method – SELF-EMPTYING.

In the beginning, we recommend that you take out your menstrual pads after 5 hours to see how much blood the pads have collected. Over time, you will know exactly when to change your pads. It all depends on your body or your menstrual days.

When you go to the toilet, you may experience some blood coming out. This is because you are tensing your pelvic muscles and the menstrual pads change position to the self-emptying method: SELF-EMPTYING. This is a feature of Femi.Eko® menstrual pads that helps to keep the pad in place in the vagina, so that it is used to its full capacity, without it being stressful to use the menstrual pad (remember not to use menstrual pads for more than 12 hours at a time without washing it, even though it is very easy to get used to this self-emptying method). You should always have clean hands, as it may be necessary to insert a finger to push the menstrual pad into place behind the pubic bone. In most cases, menstrual pads, when self-emptying, will just automatically put themselves in place, but to be best protected, you should check it.
