「[生理](https://eikaiwa.dmm.com/uknow/questions/4080/)用のナプキン」はアメリカでは、"sanitary napkin" や "sanitary pad" と言います。生理用品売り場で店員さんに「羽付のナプキンはありますか?」"Do you have pads with wings?" と訊くなど、文脈によってわかるときは "pad" だけでも通じるでしょう。
生理用ナプキンは、[ドラッグストア](https://eikaiwa.dmm.com/uknow/questions/67192/)やスーパーなどいろいろなところで売っていますね。"Feminine hygiene products" 「女性衛生用品」などのサインを探すといいでしょう。大きな街であれば、日本のスーパーやアジア系のスーパーで日本のナプキンも買えると思います。
例:
Where can I find sanitary pads?
生理用ナプキンはどこにありますか?
ご参考になれば幸いです。
We would refer to any feminine product that is used for period a, "tampon," but specifically we can call these a, "sanitary pad," "maxi pad," or even just a, "pad."
Feminine hygiene products are a series of products that are used specifically by females in order to keep her clean. This particular feminine hygiene product is commonly referred to as a maxi-pad, or a more polite term is a sanitary napkin.
Sanitary towel or sanitary pad are the terms used to describe
the napkin that women use when they are having their menstrual
flow. A shortened version is simply "pad".
Example sentence:
I need to go to the store as I've run out of pads.
You cannot use the term napkin on its own as these
can also mean the napkins or serviettes that are given out
at restaurants to wipe your hands and mouth after you
have eaten. To make it clear what you are referring to,
you should use the term "sanitary napkin".
A pad is used by women during the time of the month that they have their periods. They are used to keep them clean and hygienic. Example: I need to go to the store to buy some more pads, I ran out of pads yesterday.
In the United States, these pads are most commonly known as Tampons and they are used precisely when women are having a period.
I have also seen them referenced to as Feminine Towels (such is the case in Mexico - toalla feminina - feminine towel), and sanitary towels (the more formal application of the word "Tampon".
You could use any of the above three words to describe what a woman uses when she is on her monthly period.
Examples;
- I need to go to the shop to get sanitary towels.
- I am out of pads.
