ABSTRACT:
An inexpensive washable reusable catamenial pouch or sanitary napkin pad is formed from a single sheet of absorbent fabric, such as flannel, into a generally rectangular strip with a bottom and folded over sides forming top flaps overlying the bottom. These flaps overlap each other along the length of the pouch at the longitudinal central portion of the bottom in a closed position of the pouch. Stitching secures together the flaps and bottom at each end of the pouch. The pouch is openable to receive liners such as impervious plastic and absorbent strips on the bottom thereof by lifting and spreading the flaps apart. Tapes extend from the ends of the pouch to be attached to a support belt or the like and when pulled away from the ends, the tapes are effective to close the pouch by pulling the top flaps into their overlapped position. The inserted absorbent liners may take the form of overlapped strips of the same material as the pouch and these strips may be pinned or otherwise secured to the bottom of the pouch.
