Are you a pads or tampons person?

Question

WHICH DO YOU PREFER

Answer 1

Im a tampons person and so is my daughter

Answer 2

I'm only 14 and have yet to try tampons. So I am going to stick with pads for now.

Answer 3

I only use tampons. I used pads for my very first period 16 years ago and it felt like a diaper so I have been using tampons ever since. They are way more comfy....and less messy.

Answer 4

Pads, tampons give me allergies in that area.

Answer 5

Well, now that i recently tried tampons, i'm pretty balanced with both. When i'm at home doing nothing, or when i go to sleep...i wear pads because its less worries. But when i go out, i prefer wearing tampons so i guess i'm in between=P

Answer 6

Tampons they're more comfortable and don't show through tight clothing like pads do

Answer 7

I like pads because I like to be able to feel when I need to change, plus it's easier to keep track of the amount of my flow.

Answer 8

well, i have only had 2 periods and im 15, and have only used pads so I guess Ill pick...........pads, for now.

Answer 9

Oh I hate pads...but since I haven't gotten the tampon thing right yet...i'm going with pads. haha

Answer 10

pads... I always obsess that the tampon is going to leak and I do that obsessive mirror check. Also tampons have bleach in them. And pads won't give you toxic shock.

Answer 11

I'm a swimmer, so I kinda have to use tampons lol. When you get them in the right way, they are a lot nicer than pads in my opinion. So I'm gunna have to go with tampons. :)

Answer 12

PADS ALL THE WAY I PREFER NOT STIKEN STUFF UP THERE IF U KNO WAT I MEAN

Answer 13

I've never tried tampons and don't want to for a while. I really don't hate pads as much as some people. So I'm a pad person.

I prefer tampons way more than pads. They are much more comfortable, and you are able to do more activities with them.

Answer 16

I don't use pads or tampons...... I use (and prefer) my divacup menstrual cup! A divacup is basically an environmentally friendly tampon that you buy once and use for up to 10 years before replacing it wih a new one. It's made out of medical-grade silicone and it's shaped like a bell - sort of. To insert it you fold it up, insert it into your v****a, grab the base of the cup, spin it around a few times so it opens up, and then you're done! It never leaks because it has a suction protection seal and there is no pesky string for you to pee on. The divacup will collect your blood instead of absorbing it, so when you take it out you dump it into the toilet or sink, wash it, and re-insert. It may sound gross at first, but I promise that they are so much better than tampons and that they really aren't as messy as it sounds. I currently switched to the divacup last summer and I absolutely love it! I'm a young teen and a virgin so inserting it was really difficult at first, but after practicing with it for a week or two I was able to insert it with ease just in time to try it out with my period. (Oh yeah.. did I mention that you're able to safely insert it BEFORE you even get your period? No more stained undies!) I've been using it ever since July 07 and have been really really really happy with it - actually, it's a total lifesaver! It has never leaked on me and it's very comfortable when inserted correctly. You shouldn't even feel it when it's inside. Removing it can be a little messy at first, but it's not as bad as I'd pictured it being. When I was first learning how to remove it I found it easiest to just remove it in the shower so any messes would be washed away, but it isn't messy at all after you've learned how to use it properly. Sure, you may get a little bit of blood on your fingers from time to time - but it's nothing to worry about. It also helps if you remove it earlier on before the cup is completely full. The divacup can be safely left inside for up to 12 hours! Most women find that they only have to empty it in the morning from when they were sleeping and at the end of the day when they get home from school or work. You usually don't have to empty it in a public restroom unless you suffer from EXTREMELY heavy periods (example: you'd soak through a super tampon within an hour or two!). The divacup is so amazing that I can't talk this product up enough! It's healthier than tampons, it doesn't have the risk of TSS, it has better protection, it's better for our wallets, and it's better for our environment. I'd say at least give it a try. With all of these benefits you don't have anything to lose! Best of luck!
