FAQs

When should I use the Long Plus rather than the Long?
+

Use the Long Plus on your very heaviest flow days — when the standard Long pad is consistently saturated before you are ready or able to change it. The Long Plus provides the highest absorbency in the core Always Ultra pad range, giving more capacity between changes on the most demanding days. For moderate to heavy flow days, the standard Long is generally sufficient — reserve the Long Plus for the days when you genuinely need the extra capacity.

Is this pad suitable for overnight use on heavy flow nights?
+

Yes — the Long Plus is one of the most appropriate Always Ultra pads for overnight use on heavy flow nights, combining maximum absorbency with extended length for broad overnight coverage. Apply immediately before sleeping, ensure wings are firmly secured, and replace with fresh protection in the morning. For the very heaviest overnight flow, a dedicated always night pad provides maximum overnight-specific capacity.

How does this compare to the Always Maxi range for heavy flow?
+

The Always Ultra Long Plus delivers maximum absorbency in the slim, ultra-thin Ultra format. The Always Maxi range provides comparable or greater absorbency in a more traditional, thicker pad construction. If ultra-thinness and discretion are priorities even on heavy flow days, the Ultra Long Plus is the better choice. If you prefer a fuller, more traditional pad for your heaviest days and are less concerned about thickness, the Maxi range is the alternative.

How often should I change on a very heavy flow day?
+

On the very heaviest days, change every two to three hours or whenever the pad becomes saturated — do not wait until it is completely full. Changing promptly on heavy flow days prevents overflow, supports hygiene, and maintains skin comfort. No pad should be worn for longer than eight hours regardless of absorbency level.

How do I dispose of used pads?
+

Wrap in the backing paper from a fresh pad or toilet tissue and place in a bin. Never flush sanitary pads — they cause serious drain blockages and are not designed to break down in water.
