Hey their boys and gals I’m recently on my period and for those of you gals what do you think of tampons? My virgin self can’t bring my self to use a tampon but I hate sitting in my own blood. Though I’ve tried to use a tampon but it hurt. And in general what do you think about periods.
Another option is a silicone cup. I can’t use a tampon, because I feel like I’m sitting on a stick, and a pad feels so unclean. While a cup is still something you put inside you, I find it much more comfortable. But you have less garbage to throw away, saves money as it’s reusable, and I can tell you is so comfortable I forget about it and ma...... reply
I literally love tampons I started using them at 11 they kinda hurt when I first put them in maybe it was because I was young, but ever since then they’ve been my best friend 3 reply
Periods are pretty shitty, and an inconvenience. Pads are annoying, and tampons are fucking scary (in my opinion) but they're necessities (or so I tell myself). Anyways, I'm pretty new when it comes to tampons, but since I've resumed my swimming lessons I realized I need tampons. One thing I learned is if it isn't in far enough, it'll hurt, but if ...... reply
Pads are just really annoying, tampons are really scary (search about toxic shock syndrom) and both of them are really wasteful (your great great grandmother pads or tampons are still on this earh in landfill). I really recomend you trying out menstrual cups, they are amazing. You will have to get used to the correct way of putting it in so they wo...... reply
Cups > Pads > tampons to me, although you should use whatever you prefer. :) No need to be scared of tampons, even if you're a virgin, those with applicators are much easier to put. You should make sure you change them often as it can become a health issue and usually it dries your body. Pads are sure less comfortable but def better for your wellbe...... 1 reply
I love seeing the environmentalists here. I switched to cloths pads that are much softer and more absorbent than the plastic ones and when I'm home I just toss them in the washing machine and presto they are clean and ready to go again. After reading about the diva cup though, I think I might try it, I have always been too nervous to try a tampon b...... reply
lol I'm also uncomfortable to use tampons, I wouldn't mind trying them but my mom is kinda a prude on buying me stuff like that, when she buys pads she just leaves it on my bed, she never even had the birds and the bees talk with me lol. My stepdad, well I find it uncomfortable to ask him but, I would like to try tampons though. reply
menstrual cup. I just survived a three week period straight from hell.
menstrual cup. my savior. my holy grail. (/TДT)/ I was raised in a pads only household, so I didn't start using tampons and cups until I was an adult, but wow, they work so well. especially the cups. I put it in and don't need to worry about leakage for the next 4-8 hours. li...... reply
