FAQs

What is the difference between this and the Secure Night without wings?
+

The pad construction, overnight absorbency, and Secure Night features are the same — the key difference is the addition of wings on this variant. Wings anchor the pad to the outside of the underwear gusset, preventing sideways rotation during sleep. If you currently use the non-winged Secure Night and experience overnight leakage caused by the pad shifting position during sleep, this winged version addresses that specific issue directly. If the non-winged version stays in position reliably for you, there is no need to switch.

Why are wings particularly important for overnight use?
+

During sleep, the body moves through multiple positions — each movement creates lateral force that can shift an unsecured pad sideways in the underwear. A pad that drifts off-centre leaves part of the gusset unprotected, which is the primary mechanism of overnight leakage for many people. Wings anchored firmly to the outside of the gusset counteract this lateral force, maintaining correct pad positioning throughout the night regardless of how much the wearer moves during sleep.

How do I get the best overnight result from this pad?
+

Apply immediately before sleeping with the full pad length centred precisely front to back. Fold both wings completely around the gusset and press each wing firmly along its full length — ensure no part of either wing is lifting or partially unattached. Wear close-fitting underwear over the pad. Avoid applying the pad earlier in the evening — fresh application at bedtime ensures maximum overnight absorbency capacity is available from the start of sleep.

Can I use this pad for both day and night use?
+

This pad is specifically designed and sized for overnight use. For daytime use, the range of Always Ultra daytime pads with wings in Size 1, 2, and 3 provides the appropriate format. Night pads are longer and shaped for overnight wear — they may feel uncomfortable or overly long for regular daytime use, though they can serve as a heavy flow daytime pad in situations where the heaviest daytime coverage is needed.

What if overnight leakage still occurs despite using this pad?
+

If leakage occurs despite a correctly applied winged Secure Night pad, check that both wings are completely and firmly adhered and that the pad is positioned centrally with the full length front to back. If positioning is correct and leakage persists, the Secure Night Extra provides a further step up in absorbency and coverage. For very heavy overnight flow that consistently overwhelms ultra-thin overnight pads, the Always Maxi Night provides a traditional deep-core overnight alternative. Very heavy overnight flow is also worth discussing with a GP — it can sometimes be improved with appropriate medical management.

How do I remove and dispose of this pad?
+

Peel back each wing from the underwear fabric to release the adhesive, then remove the pad from the gusset in one smooth movement. Fold the pad inward, wrap in toilet tissue or the backing paper from a fresh pad, and place in a bin. Never flush — sanitary towels cause serious blockages in the sewage system and are not designed to break down in water.
