I am here to convince you that TAMPONS WILL MAKE YOUR LIFE 100000000X BETTER when you are on your period. Girls, there is nothing to be afraid of. If you use a tampon properly for less than 8 hours (or whatever your brand of tampons recommends) you will be FINE. Tampons DO fit comfortably (you should not be able to feel them while you are wearing them). If you do feel discomfort, it is not in far enough. There are specific instructions as to how far inside it should be. Tampons are much better than wearing female diapers, especially for sports. Sweat + pads = messy ew-iness. I recommend Playtex Gentle Glide for beginners. They are comfortable and do not hurt as much as Tampax Pearl when you pull them out (although I do admit the Pearl ones do not leak as much). Wearing tampons with a thin pantyliner is the way to go! What are pads good for? For when you're sleeping more than 6 hours. Wearing tampons during the day and a pad during the night (when you're sleeping) is the way to go! :] Plus tampons are easier to hide. >_> |

I agree that tampons make the hassle less...hassling. But I've had 2 bad experiences with tampons. I'd have to go with pads. Oh, me too. I've only used a tampon twice, and I'm sure with more use I'd eventually get used to it and begin to prefer it buuuut the second time sprouted a panic attack that I am not willing to risk repeating. I'll use a tampon if I have to, like if I'm going swimming, but otherwise, pads are for me.![]() Buuut I don't want to scare anyone into being like "OMG what went wrong with you MUSSST go wrong with me i don't want to try ittttttt". Because really, what went "wrong" was my fault, I'm just being paranoid more. Even though I prefer pads, I do encourage to at least give tampons a try. (: |
