In case of disposable pads, try keeping them away from your pets. The smell of blood might attract them.

Also, it goes without saying that you need to keep your hands clean at all times by regularly washing them. If you can maintain hygiene while taking care of your body, it is you yourself who would benefit from the entire process. When buying pads, keep in mind that you only buy ones that have good certification from the authorities. And always make sure that the pad suits your skin and doesn’t lead to infections.
