Abstract
A separate entity, or wick, that works in conjunction with the user's sanitary pad of choice to help absorb, direct, channel, and contain blood or fluid directly from the vaginal vestibule area onto the sanitary pad. The small wick device fits comfortably and snugly in the vestibule area, and is attached to the top of the sanitary napkin by means of an adhesive border around the bottom portion of the wick. The wick may also either permanently or temporarily attach to a thin, flexible, appendage strip of absorbent material, which is placed between the buttock cheeks to facilitate absorption of blood or fluid leakage particularly while the user is reclining or sleeping.
