Dear guys – this post is made solely for girls only. This is going to be some real girl talk. You probably know what a sanitary towel is and how to put it on [between your underwear and vulva].

There are two types of these towels out there, the ones with adhesive tape that need to stick on your panties in order to stick them so they don’t move, and second type are the ones with the wings on the side that you wrap on your panties on the side.

It’s important to know that you need to change them every four to six hours.
