Showering while on period

[anoverthinker]

Salam,

I suffer from OCD and tend to overthink everything regarding najasah. I also take a shower basically everyday and get extremely paranoid when doing so on my period because of the bleeding. My problem lies when leaving the shower and drying. What I do: no matter how wet I am, I quickly wear my pad and underwear and then trouser. However I keep thinking when I wear the pad and trouser and it obviously gets wet, and there’s bleeding too then because everything is wet, the najasah travels everywhere when I move and the pad shifts. I don’t know if im overthinking this. I can’t dry up because then in the duration I’ll start bleeding again especially on my first few days and it’ll get on the towel and around.
 

I would really appreciate if other girls could help out and tell me what they do.

my wife who is also a Shaikh but also a woman said : 

sit on the toilet to put the pad and underwear on. Wash the legs and thighs lightly with water, then dry them as a precaution then put the pants on and dry the rest of your body. If you see something in the towel, put on a plastic bag and wash it in the washing machine by itself the second rinse purifier, the towel and the washing machine.
 

She also adds the general rule if you have more than three doubts, you can ignore the fourth doubt unless there’s very clear proof.
