Abstract: A sanitary product for use by women for the absorption of menstrual fluid has a plug and a pad joined by a sheath. The plug is substantially cylindrical so that it fits comfortably in a vaginal cavity. The pad remains outside the vaginal cavity, but has an absorbent layer on an inward side proximal to the plug and a liquid impermeable layer on an outward side. The sheath includes a tube of absorbent material for drawing excess menstrual fluid from the plug to the pad and has a layer of liquid impermeable material on its inside surface. It extends from an outward end of the plug, proximal to the pad, both to and through the pad. In use, a wearer can insert a finger into the sheath from the outward side of the pad to assist with insertion of the plug into the vaginal cavity.

Abstract: A sanitary product 1 for use by women for the absorption of menstrual fluid has a plug 2 and a pad 3 joined by a sheath 4. The plug 2 is substantially cylindrical so that it fits comfortably in a vaginal cavity. The pad 3 remains outside the vaginal cavity, but has an absorbent layer on an inward side 9 proximal to the plug 2 and a liquid impermeable layer on an outward side 10. The sheath 4 includes a tube of absorbent material for drawing excess menstrual fluid from the plug 2 to the pad 3 and has a layer of liquid impermeable material on its inside surface. It extends from an outward end 6 of the plug 2, proximal to the pad 3, both to and through the pad 3. In use, a wearer can insert a finger into the sheath 4 from the outward side 10 of the pad 3 assist with insertion of the plug 2 into the vaginal cavity.

Abstract: This invention relates to a sanitary product for use by women for the absorption of menstrual fluid and such like. The product comprises a plug and a pad joined by a sheath. The plug is substantially cylindrical so that is fits comfortably in a vaginal cavity. The pad remains outside the vaginal cavity, but has an absorbent layer on an inward side proximal to the plug and a liquid impermeable layer on an outward side. In use, a wearer can insert a finger into the sheath from the outward side of the pad assist with insertion of the plug into the vaginal cavity. A string is provided that extends inside the sheath from the outward end of the plug to aid removal of the product. A line of weakness extends along the major axis of the pad, about which the pad is disposed to fold in use. This encourages the pad to fold around the plug to accommodate the plug during removal of the product, thus improving hygiene.
