yea, get the overnight pads, i think there orange, i think they are longer in the front and back so if your moving around a lot, you wont leak. and i dont know for sure about this but if you drink water i think the flow is better or something.

Overnight pads.
 I think excersizing makes your flow a little less. It does for me.

actually, i think you should use a tampon and an overnight pad for extra protection...if you're not going to be skiing for 6 hours straight...

^ That's a good suggestion. You'll be pretty sure you won't leak.

What I do is wear the biggest tampon you can find, with the biggest pad you can find...and you're good to go...mine used to be really really heavy so i have experience with those situations.

^^ Don't double post just edit your last one
Just wear a heavy tampon and a heavy pad, then you only have to change it every 6 hours if you are going for that long. |

Okay... well, no matter what DO NOT TAKE ASPRIN!!!!!!
Just in case you didn't know... asprin thins your blood out so it gives you a heavier flow. But there's not too much you can do about it. You can't change your flor or anything. But I'll tell you what I do. Errr... well, I don't just use one tampon.  I know it sounds weird... but I have a heavy flow and in class I don't have enough time to change between every period or anything. So yeah... I use two.  It doesn't hurt. Just gotta get used to it I guess. But yeah... two super Tampax Pearl for me. Works well.
