As a necessity for women's daily life, there have been early prototypes of products similar to sanitary napkins. In the 15th century BC, Egyptian women used soft papyrus to meet their menstrual needs. The founder of Western medicine, Hippocrates, once wrote that the Greeks used tampons made by wrapping a small piece of wood with cotton strips in the 5th century BC. In ancient China, women used long white cloth towels to cope with menstruation. After each change, they were washed with water and alum. The Romans used wool, and other materials similar to "sanitary napkins" included paper (Japan), plant fiber (Indonesia), sponge, and grass (Central Africa).
