I wore the same pad for more than 24 hours, it was last day of period n im at fren's hse, inconvenient to chg. now having itchiness. am worried. :(?

Possible irritation.: The pad often traps moisture and can cause irritation in the perineal area. In some cases, it can cause urinary tract infection . Just make sure you wash with warm water and soap and keep the area dry. If the itching persists, see your pcp.
