Are menstrual pads, which replace the use of a sanitary napkin or tampon, considered waterproof?

I listened to the podcast Sexe Oral where the pharmacist Alexandre Chagnon went to answer many questions about sexuality, etc. In the information that Dr. Chagnon shared, he talked about how underwear should not be waterproof since this is often what causes vaginal infections.

Hello,
Indeed, wearing tight underwear that does not breathe is a risk factor for developing vaginal infections.
However, menstrual panties are for the most part designed with materials that breathe and avoid this problem!
I hope that I have answered your question correctly,
