FEMININE COOLING PAD

摘要

A feminine cooling pad configured for cooling a vulva and/or adjacent region. The cooling pad may include a non-adhesive outer liquid permeable layer configured to be oriented toward the pubic area during use. A liquid absorbent layer forming or adjacent to the outer layer absorbs bodily fluids or discharges during use. A cooling layer adjacent to the liquid absorbent layer provides cooling for at least about 15 minutes when the cooling pad is placed adjacent to the pubic area of a woman. An optional adhesive layer adjacent to the cooling layer can adhere the feminine cooling pad to an undergarment or clothing during use and maintain the cooling pad in a desired orientation. A feminine heating pad may include a microwavable material that becomes warm or hot when placed in a microwave oven. A feminine cooling pad can operate as a heating pad when heated instead of cooled.

1. A feminine cooling pad configured for comfortable application to a pubic area of a woman's body, comprising:
a non-adhesive outer surface or layer configured to contact the pubic area of a woman's body; a liquid absorbent material forming a liquid absorbent layer having an exterior surface configured to be oriented toward a user's skin and absorb bodily fluids or discharges during use and an interior surface; and a gel pack comprised of a gel material enclosed within a liquid impermeable polymer casing and forming a cooling layer adjacent to the interior surface of the liquid absorbent layer, wherein the gel pack can be repeatedly placed in a cooling environment prior to use and will subsequently provide a cooling effect for a period of time of at least about 15 minutes when the cooling pad is in contact with the pubic area of a woman's body, wherein the cooling layer remains flexible when cooled to a temperature below 0° C.
