The colour of the blood that is being discharged is visible on a white surface. If the discharge colours are yellow, green or pink – these indicate infection and the menstruator will need to see a doctor.
How to wash the Uger pad
Soak the pads and napkins in cold water, then use soap and wash them like one would wash other clothing. Do not use hot water.
