Bleeding After Miscarriage

Thursday, January 7th, 2010

There are no precise numbers and descriptions of what will happen in every case after a miscarriage. Every situation is different, depending on how far the pregnancy was and how each body handles it. But there are still some general guidelines that can give you an idea about what to expect.

What happens after a miscarriage?

Whether you have a D&C or a natural miscarriage, you may experience mild menstrual-like cramps afterward for a couple of days and light bleeding for a week or two.

  • Use pads instead of tampons
  • You can take acetaminophen or ibuprophen to ease the cramps pain
  • Avoid sex, swimming, douching and using vaginal medications for at least a week or two and until the bleeding stops.

We recommend that you use the Anion Love Moon Sanitary Napkins because of their:

  • high absorbency
  • anti-bacterial and deodorization functions
  • special bottom layer which allows air flow, prevents irritation and helps you feel comfortable.

How much bleeding should I expect after miscarriage?

The bleeding associated with a miscarriage can be heavy with large clots without meaning a medical emergency. But if you are soaking a sanitary pad in an hour, have any signs of infection (fever, achiness, or foul-smelling vaginal discharge) or feel excessive pain, call your practitioner immediately or go to the emergency room.

How long does bleeding last after miscarriage?

The duration of bleeding associated with a miscarriage is different for every woman, but the bleeding should not remain heavy for more than a few days and should stop within about two weeks in most cases. If you have had bleeding heavier than an average menstrual period for more than two or three days, it is a good idea to see your doctor to rule out complications.

Our First Winalite Year Overview

Tuesday, December 15th, 2009

I cannot believe it’s almost Christmas! Where did this year go?! And now, that we are getting to the end of it, it is a good time to take a moment and look back to evaluate things.

We started working with the Winalite at the beginning of this year. We were very excited to see the great results of our experiments and wanted to share them with everybody. Few people have heard of the Anion Sanitary Napkins at that time.

Now, almost a year later, the Winalite has sperad a lot, not only in the US, but also to many other countries and more and more people are using it. In February and March we were showing people what the Anion Sanitary Napkins can do for them. Now, we have many testimonies of what the Anion Sanitary Napkins did for women. These pads are no longer only a new great product, but also something that has been tried and works!

Women who have been using the Winalite pads for more months now report the following:

  • lighter and shorter periods
  • no cramping
  • no odor
  • no worry :)

One of my friends who has an ovarian cyst used to be in terrible pain when she was having her periods. That is all gone since she is using the Anion Sanitary Napkins. Many other women who used to have very bad cramps tell us how grateful they are to have found these pads which give them great relief from menstrual cramps.

I’ve just browsed through my previous posts, looked at the videos and pictures and read some of the articles. It’s a great satisfaction to be able to look back and see that the things you believed in really work! This was definitely a good year for our Winalite team. We hope it was the same for you and we wish you an even better one!

Happy Holidays!

The Winalite Team

How well is your sanitary pad doing its job?

Thursday, February 26th, 2009

Probably the most important quality of a sanitary pad is ABSORBENCY. Actually that is why we use them -to keep us dry. How well do different sanitary pads manage to do that job?

Here is an easy test we suggest. You can do it yourself or, if you don’t want to spend your money on several different kinds of pads, you can just take a look at how our tests turned out.

After carrying out the tests I realized we gathered so much material that it cannot all go into one post, so I will just show you the results of one test today.

ANION LOVE MOON SANITARY NAPKINS versus ALWAYS

You can see how we filled two different glasses with some blue colored water (5o ml. each) and then poured the water over the pads.

Then we took two dry paper towels and pressed them against the pads.

In the above pictures you can see how wet the towel got after pressing it against the Always pad. Actually it did not only get wet when pressing the hand against it, but even at a simple light finger tap.

Let’s see how the Anion did:

And here you saw how the towel pressed against the Anion Love Moon Sanitary Napkin remained dry, though I did press it hard! See how the finger goes deep in, pressing hard against it (above picture). And then, I pressed my hand so hard that the print of my hand can be seen on the towel, and it still remained dry.

In conclusion, you can obviously see the difference in between Anion and Always pads. Anion Love Moon sanitary napkin has a much higher level of absorption and that is what you need if you want to stay dry and feel comfortable.

My next post will be about Anion versus a different famous brand pad, so keep following us for more interesting tests results.
