Ukuba ufana nabasetyhini abaninzi, xa ixesha lakho liqala, unokufikelela kwi-pad okanye ufikelele kwi-tampon. Leyo yintetho intle kakhulu yonke intombazana ekwishumi elivisayo eMelika inikwe ukusukela ngeminyaka yoo-1980 xa iipads ezibhantiweyo zatshintshwa ngamadiapers ancamathelayo esiwathiyileyo sonke namhlanje. Kodwa ngoku, enye yezona zinto zinkulu ezicocekileyo ezimalunga nococeko lwabasetyhini ehlabathini zizisa into encinci eyaziwayo kodwa ethandwa kakhulu kukhetho lwethu lwesithathu kwivenkile yamayeza: Indebe yokuya exesheni.

I-Tampax isandula ukukhupha iNdebe yeTampax, iphulo lokuqala lebhrendi ngaphandle kweetoni. Ngokutsho koshicilelo lweendaba, i-Tampax ijuba kwiminyaka yabo ye-80 yophando kunye namakhulu abafazi malunga nokukhusela ixesha kwaye yasebenza kunye ne-ob-gyns ukuphuhlisa inguqulelo egcwalisa isithuba kwimarike yekomityi yokuya esikhathini. Zimbalwa izinto eziphuculweyo? Ikhululekile kwaye kulula ukuyisusa, kwaye ibeka uxinzelelo oluncinci kwi-bladder kunezinye iinketho ngaphandle, ngokutsho kwezazinzulu ze-brand.

Masicace: Uninzi lwabasetyhini sele betshintshisene ngomqhaphu wabo ukuze bafumane ukhetho oluzinzileyo, olungenakhemikhali, nololongo oluphantsi. Kwaye ukuba ukhwele uloliwe wekomityi yesilicone, ezi ndaba mhlawumbi zi-NBD. Kodwa kuninzi lwabasetyhini baseMelika, oku kuvula ihlabathi elitsha lokhetho abangazange bacinge ngalo ngaphambili. Emva kwayo yonke loo nto, ukuba i-brand ye-tampon esetyenziswa kakhulu ithi iikomityi zokuya exesheni ziyindlela efanelekileyo yokuyisebenzisa ngexesha lakho, kuyafaneleka ukukhangela, akunjalo?!

Kwaye kuninzi lwabasetyhini, ukuyizama kanye kunokuba yiyo yonke into abayidingayo ukuguqula okulungileyo (kwaye uxelele wonke umfazi owaziyo ukuba enze okufanayo). "Uninzi lwezigulane zam ngokuqinisekileyo azisebenzisi, kodwa abo bazenzayo, bayabathanda kwaye bathi abanakuze baphinde babuyele kwi-pad okanye i-tampon," kusho uG. Thomas Ruiz, MD, i-ob-gyn ekhokelayo kwiSikhumbuzo se-Orange. Iziko Lonyango Lonxweme eFountain Valley, CA. Ngapha koko, ngama-91 eepesenti abasetyhini abazama indebe yokuya exesheni bangayincoma kubahlobo babo, luthi uphando ku Ugqirha waseKhaya waseKhanada.

Ukuba ucinga ukuba indebe yenzelwe kuphela i-organic, i-granola-y gals, cinga kwakhona: Kumfazi ophakathi, indebe yokuya exesheni kunokuba yinto elungileyo, utshilo uGqirha Ruiz. Apha, izizathu ezimbalwa zokuba kutheni.

Izinto Eziluncedo Zokusebenzisa Iindebe zokuya exesheni

Ukuqala, ungashiya ikomityi ukuya kuthi ga kwiiyure ezili-12, kuxhomekeke ekuhambeni kwakho. Oko kuthetha ukuba kuya kufuneka udibanise nayo kusasa nangokuhlwa, kwindawo yangasese kwindawo yakho yokuhlambela-kwaye awubambekanga kwisicelo esingaphezulu kwesitali sokukhangela isikhwama esingxamisekileyo.

Ngaphezu koko, ngelixa iikomityi zokuya exesheni zingathathi isifo esothusayo kodwa esibi kakhulu etafileni, bayawanciphisa amathuba okuphucula usulelo oluqhelekileyo oluza neetampon kunye neepads. Kwabasetyhini abanokuthi ngokwemvelo bachaphazeleke kakhulu ekukhuleni kweebhaktheriya (i-yeast infection), elona xesha liqhelekileyo lokufumana oku ngexesha labo, utsho uDkt Ruiz. "Inxalenye yalonto kungenxa yokuba iiphedi kunye neetampon azifunxi igazi kuphela kodwa nazo naziphi na ezinye izinto ezingamanzi kwilungu lakho lobufazi, ezinokuphosa iintsholongwane zakho kwinqanaba."

Ukuthathela ingqalelo ukuba uqhuba ubuncinci i-4 yebhokisi yeetoni kumjikelo ngamnye, uya kuba ugcina imali usebenzisa ikomityi yokuya esikhathini phantsi konyaka.

Kwaye kunye nokusingqongileyo. Phantse ama-20 eebhiliyoni zeepads, iitamponi, kunye nezixhobo zokusebenza zilahlwa kwindawo yokulahla inkunkuma yaseMntla Melika minyaka le, kwaye abasebenzi bokucoca ulwandle baqokelele ngaphezulu kwe-18,000 yeetamponi ezisetyenzisiweyo kunye nezifakeli kwiilwandle kwihlabathi liphela-ngosuku olunye. (Kwaye i-FYI, nokuba usebenzisa i-eco-conscious applicator-free ezahlukeneyo, i-tampon ngokwayo ayinakuphinda isetyenziswe kuba inenkunkuma yabantu.)

Iikomityi zokuya exesheni zinokugcina kakhulu ii-oe zakho zomsebenzi, nazo. “Iimbaleki ziphantse zisebenzisa iitamponi, kodwa indebe inokubonelela ngokuvuza okuncinci kuba inetywina elingcono,” utshilo uGqr. Ruiz.

Ugqirha Ruiz uthi akaboni nto imbi ekusebenziseni le ndebe. Ewe, ukususa nokuhlamba ikomityi encinci ezele ligazi lokuya exesheni kungangxola. Kodwa, "abantu abasebenzisa iitamponi sele besetyenziselwa ukufaka iimveliso kwilungu labo lobufazi, kwaye iitamponi nazo ziyangcungcutheka, utshilo.

Indlela yokufumana indebe yokuya exesheni eLungileyo kwixesha lakho
