independent device for protection against pollution of clothing for use between underwear and absorptive article

摘要

A protective device (10) for improved hygiene is removably attached to the undergarment (26) of a user. The device has a top side and a bottom side. The bottom side includes an adhesive material (24) for attachment to the undergarment. An absorbent article (26), such as a disposable menstrual pad, is removably attachable to the top side of the device. The device includes at least one hydrophobic layer that acts to repel moisture and thereby save the undergarment from being soiled. The user can change the pad (26) as required by removing it from the top side of the device without the need to remove or replace the device itself at each pad-changing interval.
