Description

ALWAYS ULTRA EXTRA LONG DUO HERBAL

PRIMARY USES

1. Value Duo Pack for Heavy Flow Day and Night Protection with Herbal Freshness
Primary Use: Provides a value duo pack combining Always Ultra Extra Long pads infused with herbal freshness technology, offering maximum absorbency with ultra-thin comfort for heavy flow management both day and night, with the added benefit of odour-neutralising herbal infusion.
How it helps: For the gynaecologist and primary care physician, patients with heavy menstrual bleeding often require maximum protection that also addresses odour concerns without compromising comfort. The Always Ultra Extra Long Duo Herbal pads feature Ultra Gel Technology that absorbs liquid instantly and locks it into a gel core, preventing leaks while maintaining an ultra-thin, flexible design. The herbal freshness infusion provides a delicate, pleasant scent that helps neutralise odour throughout the day. The duo pack format provides two quantities in a single economical purchase, specially formulated for heavy flow during both day and night. For the patient managing heavy periods, this means comprehensive 24-hour protection with odour confidence in a cost-effective duo pack.
2. Extra Long Coverage for Overnight and Extended Protection
Primary Use: The extra-long variant provides significantly extended front-to-back coverage (approximately 40% longer than ordinary pads), specifically engineered for overnight protection and for women who experience leakage at the back of the pad when lying down during heavy flow.
How it helps: For the gynaecologist and sleep medicine specialist, patients with heavy menstrual bleeding often experience significant sleep disruption due to anxiety about overnight leakage. The Always Ultra Extra Long pads feature an extended length offering more coverage, especially for overnight or heavy flow use, with the extra-long design providing maximum coverage for day or night. The unique extra-long shape and anti-leakage barriers ensure protection stays in place regardless of sleeping position. For the patient, this means uninterrupted sleep, reduced anxiety about morning stains, and the confidence to wake up feeling secure and protected, with the duo pack format ensuring adequate supply for an entire cycle.
3. 3in1 Protection: Leak, Odour, and Wetness
Primary Use: Delivers 3in1 protection combining rapid absorption (Ultra Gel Technology), odour neutralisation (herbal freshness infusion), and leak prevention (anti-leakage barriers), providing comprehensive menstrual protection for women with heavy flow who are concerned about multiple aspects of period management.
How it helps: For the gynaecologist addressing patient concerns about multiple period-related issues, patients often worry about leaks, odour, and skin wetness simultaneously. The Always Ultra 3in1 Herbal Freshness pads combine three essential actions: Ultra Gel Technology absorbs liquid instantly and locks it into a gel core, preventing wetness; herbal oils lock not just wetness but also odour to keep users fresh all day; and anti-leakage barriers provide maximum coverage to prevent accidents. For the patient managing heavy periods, this means comprehensive protection that addresses the three main concerns of period management in a single, ultra-thin, extra-long pad.
4. Ultra-Thin, Flexible Design with Herbal Freshness for All-Day Comfort
Primary Use: Features ultra-thin, flexible design that maintains high absorbency while remaining discreet and comfortable under clothing, infused with herbal freshness for odour control, making it ideal for women who prefer thin pads but require heavy flow protection with extended length for day and night use.
How it helps: For the gynaecologist addressing patient concerns about pad bulk and visibility, many women avoid adequate protection for heavy flow days and nights because traditional thick pads are uncomfortable and visible under tight clothing. The Always Ultra Extra Long Herbal pad offers an ultra-thin fit that facilitates daily activities without compromising on protection, with the flexible design moving with the body. The herbal freshness infusion provides a delightful scent for all-day freshness, with 500 air-fresh pores allowing air to pass through while absorbing wetness. For the patient, this means heavy flow protection with extended length that remains comfortable, discreet, and fresh-smelling throughout the workday, evening activities, and overnight sleep.
5. Anti-Leakage Barriers with Flexible Wings for Secure Protection
Primary Use: Engineered with anti-leakage barriers for maximum coverage and flexible wings that wrap around underwear to secure the pad in place, providing ultimate protection even during intense physical activity, exercise, or restless overnight sleep, with extra-long length ensuring coverage during position changes.
How it helps: For the sports medicine physician and physiotherapist, heavy menstrual bleeding is a common reason women reduce or avoid physical activity during their period, impacting fitness routines and athletic performance. The Always Ultra Extra Long Herbal pad features anti-leakage barriers that provide maximum coverage, with flexible wings that wrap around underwear to secure the pad in place regardless of movement intensity. The extra-absorbent gel-based core instantly locks in menstrual flow, providing secure protection for up to 8 hours. For the active patient, this means the confidence to continue exercise routines, sports participation, and daily activities without pad-related anxiety, even during heavy flow.

SECONDARY USES

1. Postpartum lochia management following vaginal delivery or caesarean section: The Always Ultra Extra Long Duo Herbal pads provide maximum absorbency, extra-long length, and ultra-thin comfort for the initial heavy flow days following delivery, with herbal freshness helping manage postpartum odour concerns while the flexible design remains comfortable against sutures or incisions.
2. Post-gynaecological procedure bleeding management: For patients recovering from endometrial biopsy, cervical biopsy, colposcopy, LEEP, cone biopsy, hysteroscopy, or dilation and curettage (D&C), these pads provide reliable, maximum-absorbency protection with extra-long coverage for overnight security and herbal freshness for odour confidence during recovery.
3. Management of menorrhagia in perimenopausal patients: For perimenopausal women experiencing unpredictable, heavy, and prolonged bleeding episodes as oestrogen levels fluctuate, the Always Ultra Extra Long Duo Herbal pads provide maximum absorbency, extra-long length, 3in1 protection, and 24-hour coverage needed to manage unpredictable heavy flow day and night, with the duo pack format ensuring adequate supply during this transitional period.
4. Extended wear for long work shifts, overnight shifts, and travel: For women working long or overnight shifts (healthcare professionals, flight attendants, emergency responders) or travelling without easy access to changing facilities, the extra-long length, maximum absorbency, and up to 8-hour protection provide reliable coverage for an entire shift or journey, with herbal freshness maintaining confidence during extended wear.
5. Bleeding management in patients on anticoagulant therapy: For patients prescribed anticoagulant medications (such as warfarin, apixaban, rivaroxaban, heparin, or enoxaparin) who experience significantly heavier menstrual bleeding as a side effect, these pads provide maximum absorbency and extra-long coverage needed to manage increased flow day and night, with anti-leakage barriers minimising accidents.
6. Endometriosis and adenomyosis symptom management: For patients with endometriosis or adenomyosis who experience heavy, prolonged, and often painful menstrual bleeding, the Always Ultra Extra Long Duo Herbal pads provide reliable heavy-flow protection with extended length for overnight security, plus herbal freshness for odour confidence, allowing patients to focus on pain management rather than leakage concerns.
