What is a "cloth menstrual pad"?

A cloth menstrual pad is a reusable and eco-friendly alternative to disposable menstrual pads. It is made of soft, absorbent fabric and comes in various sizes and designs. Cloth menstrual pads are worn in underwear during menstruation to collect and absorb menstrual flow. They typically have a waterproof or water-resistant layer to prevent leaks and are fastened in place with snaps or wings. Cloth menstrual pads are washable, durable, and can be reused for multiple menstrual cycles with proper care. They offer comfort, reliability, and reduce waste, making them a sustainable option for managing menstrual flow.
