Ok i looked & i didnt find one about this.. or i missed it i dunno.. But has anyone tried those playtex sport tampons? I was just wondering if there good cause im in track & i hate running on my period..

I use the regular Playtex, and they work very well. I guess since Playtex Sport is for athletic girls, then it should work? :/ Just buy a pack.

ick. tampons.
when i was on vacation, i used the playtex ones. it never leaked when it was really heavy.
they're pretty good, but they hurt me really bad. but that's most likely because i'd never used them.

You never know until you try. Well, I had my first tampon experience a few days ago. The regular one stopped leaking a lot. So, I'm pretty sure the sport tampon will be extra duty.

i wear playtex gentle glide and it works well.

im in track, too. =]

You might have not stuck them in far enough. If you don't, they hurt like HELL. X_x

I dont you so just go out and puy a pack i mean what can it hurt? Anyways i use the playtex gently glide and they work very well.

a bit of digression, but once i ran out of tampons and i had to swim, so i borrowed ones from my friend? i usually use the slim ones, but my friend who is uh..sexually active , had like this HUUUUUUGE ONE. long story short: it was the most friggin painful thing ever.

Someone told me Tampax Pearl has a higher chance of causing TSS... which is why I never use it. Rumors or not, it's better to be safe than sorry! :)

EDIT~ I just Googled it, and this website said it was a false myth. I still prefer Playtex because it doesn't hurt like a motherf**ker when I pull it out.

I use Tampax. I like them better because they have the absorbing string on them... which is always nice to have. I haven't tried the Sport ones, but who knows they might be really good. Everyone's different so what works for someone else might not work the same way for you.

^YEAH! When I've used Tampax Pearl, pulling the tampon out was uh... a bit more uncomfortable.
Didn't know about the TSS rumors though... heh I'll stick to Playtex now.

Hm personally I'm in track too and I just use the regular tampons... ? They work well for me. But I guess if you have a heavier flow or are concerned about it, Playtex Sports could work well for you.

Ah yes, I've used Playtex Sport. It works the same as any other tampon, I would say. The insertion is comfortable, though.

I didn't feel it while I was running, either. I'm on track too.

Tampax pearl all the way. I tried playtex once, they're cheap. Tampax are easier to slide in ;x

Yeah , I went out and bought some. The fact is the work really well for people in sports.. maybe its the way it absorbes or something but there really comfortable

i hate running being on my period! it just intensifies the cramps! x[
