Breast pads refer to a type of absorbent product that is designed for women who are experiencing discharge or leakage from their breasts. These pads typically have an adhesive strip on one side, allowing them to be attached directly onto the skin underneath the breast. They are meant to provide protection against any leaks or spills, and can help prevent staining of clothing as well. Breast pads come in various sizes and absorbencies, depending on individual needs, and they are typically worn inside a bra for convenience and discretion.
