Why do Kotex pads cause itching and irritation after a few hours of use?

Itching and irritation from Kotex pads after a few hours are usually caused by moisture buildup and friction, which can irritate sensitive skin over time.

When pads stay damp, they create a warm environment that can lead to discomfort or even mild skin reactions.

Another common reason is sensitivity to materials used in the pad, such as fragrances, adhesives, or synthetic fibers, which may trigger allergic or contact dermatitis in some users.

Switching to fragrance-free, cotton-based, or hypoallergenic pads often helps reduce this reaction.
