Beware of Dangerous Women Bandages








Have you ever thought that the pads that we use for this is safe? It turns out from the many outstanding pads almost entirely unsafe and toxic.

According to WHO, Indonesia is a country with cervical cancer NO.1 in the world, and one of 62% due to the use of sanitary products are not qualified. In RSCM: 400 new cervical cancer patients every year, and that was just from one hospital and deaths from cervical cancer is approximately 66%. The majority of patients come in an advanced stage of the condition. The level of awareness of early detection is low. Every hour there is the addition of cervical cancer in Indonesia.

Area of ​​femininity that we care about all this turns out we inadvertently poisoned. And that makes us surprise is that the pads that we use apparently made of paper / recycling bin and contains DIOXIN. Congress (House of Representatives) in the United States is preparing legislation banning the use of bleach on the pads and the use of recycled materials (http://womenscancercenter.com/cancercosts/hr890.html) about the Tampon Safety and Research Act of 1999 (Introduced in the House ) HR 890 IH. And in some developed countries such dressings banned.



In Indonesia, we are not informed of the danger, and the sanitary industry keep selling their products at very cheap and low quality because they do not wear cotton material instead of paper-based waste recycling and bleach.

Sanitary napkin is a very vital thing for women has become a staple even when a woman is menstruating. Without realizing it, it turned out to be one of the causes of disease DIOXIN femininity with the discovery of a substance on the woman's best friend thing. According to the World Health Organization that DIOXIN substances can cause cancer.

Throughout history, women use a variety of menstrual protection, starting from the time of ancient Egypt, the ancient Egyptians had known that at the time the pads are made of papyrus leaves are softened and shaped like a tampon. Then developed in ancient Greece by using soft cotton material and a small timber and wrapped.

A wide range of materials used for sanitary napkins as hay, wool, cotton, cloth, fiber and vegetables. Yiaitu shape is inserted into the bag and tucked between the legs.

Some examples can be seen at the Museum of Menstruation among others, is a kind of pads are sewn and menstrual aprons, The Inuit (Eskimo) using rabbit skin while in Uganda used was papyrus. A fairly common way is to use a piece of old cloth.

In 1867 discovered menstrual cups (menstrual cup). The bowl is put into a cloth bag which is connected with a belt tied at the waist. At that time, women did not use anything behind her skirt, so if you are menstruating, they wear these pads.

In 1876, the material of the menstrual cup is replaced rubber material is a material that allows menstrual blood can hold, and then continues to flow through the hose into the storage bag that is used outside the body. However, using a menstrual cup that only certain people only. Poor people are still using fabric that is washable so it can be used repeatedly, because they can not afford to buy a menstrual cup.

It was only in the first world war, the forerunner of the disposable pads (pads today) found. Disposable sanitary napkin that was first distributed in the world is the product of Curads and Hartmannâ € ™ s. Kotex was the first brand to bandage dilaunched in America in 1920.

The idea for this product came from the nurses who wore bandages from wood pulp to absorb menstrual blood. This type of bearing is considered cheap enough to be discarded after use and raw materials easily obtained. A nurse first World War, when they realized that the pads they used to dress wounds turns armies they could use when menstruating. Then in the 1900s, disposable pads made.

Some manufacturer's first disposable sanitary napkin is also a manufacturer of bandage (dressing the modern woman can be used for first aid wound dressings because if there is no ability to absorb high sanitary napkins and sterile).

Innovation occurs. In the 1960's, using a belt pads being replaced with pads that use glue. Glue is working to hold on the bottom of the underwear. The material is also changed, initially using materials wood fiber and cotton fiber, to other materials such as gels.

Until now, innovation continues napkins, tailored to the needs and development of women.

Every woman uses 15,000 sheets pads for life, meaning that every woman at risk CONTAMINATED MATERIAL DIOXIN 15,000 times that found in normal pads that use recycled materials.

What is DIOXIN? DIOXIN is a byproduct of the bleaching (bleaching) used in paper mills, including factory sanitary napkins, tissue, sanitary pads and diapers.

From the research, materials and fiber Synthesis Dioxin substances that exist in sanitary napkins and other similar products, high-risk women's health, including risks related to Cervical Cancer, Endometriosis, Infertility, Ovarian Cancer, Breast Cancer, Immune system deficiencies, pelvic inflammatory disease, toxic shock syndrome, and others.

How Dioxin can seep into the uterus? When the menstrual blood (is hot) falls to the surface pads, the substance dioxin is released through the process of evaporation. The vapors will first surface of the vagina, and then absorbed into the uterus through the cervix and into the uterus, through the fallopian tube and end up in ovarium.Sehingga cause: cervical cancer, gatal2, myoma etc..

According to dr. Rachmad Poedyo Armanto, SpOG, there was not a specific category in the selection of sanitary napkins. But most importantly, these pads can optimally absorb menstrual blood.

According to Dr. Boyke, provision of bleach or artificial fragrances on the pads, it is feared there will be an allergic reaction, which can lead to vaginal discharge and inflammation or infection.

FACTS ABOUT sanitary napkins:

1.There pads are not using 100% cotton material

2. There are pads that use raw material waste paper and sawdust (pulp) are recycled to make basic materials to save production costs.

3. Raw materials ranging from newsprint, cardboard and cardboard filled with bacteria, germs and odors.

4. In the recycling process many chemicals (DIOXIN) used in the bleaching process.

Sanitary napkins are disposable products. that's why the producers of the raw material recycling pulp and paper and make a basic raw material for production cost savings. Dioxin bandage contains a very dangerous substance.

Dioxin effects:

- Vulvar Cancer

- Ovary Cancer

- Cysts

- Myom

In the world, every 2 minutes, a woman dies from cervical cancer in Indonesia, every one hour (Ferlay J et al. GLOBOCAN 2002. IARC 2004). While ignorance of the women of the threat of cervical cancer have also helped many women who die from this disease.

Found Main Cause Cervical Cancer in Indonesia is poor quality Bandages, Bandages Beware you, Check Quality of The Usual You Wear Bandages. According to WHO (World Health Organization), Indonesia is a country with cervical cancer (cervical) World no.1 and 62% is caused by the use of poor-quality pads! In the RSCM, 400 patients with cervical cancer each year. In the RSCM, deaths from cervical cancer is approximately 66%

Did you know that according to research as many as 107 bacteria per square millimeter was found in the sanitary napkins, sanitary conditions that make the ordinary into the source of nest growth of harmful bacteria, although regular pads used only for 2 hours. Imagine the number of bacteria on the surface area of ​​the pads, especially if used for more than 2 hours.

Note to the ladies:
1. It's perhaps an infected adult female vaginal infection was 83%. Means of 10 women there are 8 women who experience vaginal infections!2. 62% of statistics are due to the regular use of pads!3. i'ts abaut  average every woman needs at least 3-6 days a month for the treatment of vaginal infections!4. If a woman from contracting vaginal infections since the age of 20 years, it takes at least 6 years of his life just for the care and treatment of vaginal infections!

Most women never know about regular pads they buy and wear over the years. And they never suspected and never tried to rip or observe the usual sanitary materials they use. Many women prefer to buy regular pads in the market only think cheap and pretty good use, without knowing anything of the health risks of the use of pads or regular pantyliner.

Sanitary napkins, including the classification of fast-food consumer products and disposable products. That's why the producers used frequently sanitary waste material recycling waste paper and waste paper used to make this a basic materials to save production costs. In the process of recycling waste paper bin is, of course, many chemicals used in the bleaching process again, deodorize waste paper bins and bacterial sterilization process contained in the waste paper bin.


Waste paper as base material pads former regular

The raw material used pads of paper used by the bleaching / bleaching materials with hazardous chemicalsRecycled paper that has been processed with chemicals is then wrapped and ready to be marketed as regular pads that we find in the market. The women bought cheaply and used without misgivings, but potentially bad for women's health.

Menstrual problems due to poor quality sanitary napkins

When menstruating and wearing regular pads, unwittingly liquid is absorbed by normal pads that have been mixed with chemicals and mixed with sterile materials from regular pads. And when a woman sat down without realizing the dirty fluid out of the pads will come out again because of a pressure and rise to the top and back into the female organs. This will lead to infection and the incidence of female issues. Be careful if you feel while wearing the bandage was muddy / not dry.

Signs of infection for women menstruation:
1. Fever
2. Frequent urination
3. Dizziness
4. Upset stomach / Nausea
5. Whitish
6. Lumbago
7. Pain when urinating

How to Test Quality

Myum, cysts, and cervical cancer does not come suddenly. There must be a cause and process. Infection and femininity these problems could have been prevented. To test whether made from pulp / paper recycling, you can test whether the pads that you buy is safe or not in a way like this:
1. Scratch your sanitary product, take the core inside.
2. Take a glass of water. Try to use a transparent glass so it is more clear.
3. Take some of the core sheet your pads and dip them in the water. Stir with chopsticks.
