Do you prefer tampons or pads? ?

Question

When I was younger I chose tampons because I hated the feeling of the pad and bleeding in my underwear. But after having a child I choose pads because it feels like the bleeding is "cleansing" it out, and a tampon seems like it would block things up. Am I weird or can anyone relate?

Answer 1

I prefer tampons too :-P lol jk ima dude.  

Answer 2

Well I like the pad better, and by the way I never put a tampon in my life, simple I don't like it, some girls they like some girls not, just depend if your body feel comfortable for that.

In my personal case I'm only wearing pads since I was 10 anyway I think I will be all my life with pads, and tampons, well I like only the colors of the decorative boxes! lol!

Answer 4

Tampons.  I haven't had a child, but this has worked for me since late high school.

Answer 5

I can't wear pads; I feel like I'm wearing a diaper.  

I understand the thought of the pad though being more

cleansing.  But, then you have the blood all over the

outside of you; and that I just can't get used to.

Answer 6

PADS!!

Answer 7

I prefer tampons, but I can't wear them anymore. I have an intestinal disease that flares during my period and it makes wearing tampons extremely inconvenient so I get stuck wearing pads. Also when I wear tampons I have to wear a liner or pad anyway because I leak fast. Sucks.

ALSO, I used to get a bacterial infection EVERY month as soon as my period was over when I was wearing tampons all the time... Now that I've stopped wearing them, I haven't had a single infection so I think that has something to do with it.

Answer 8

it all comes out either way personally i like tampons cuz less chance of leaking

Answer 9

Tampons are just easier to deal with, when I was little I first used a pad it felt like I was wearing a diaper so my vote is for

Tampons!

Plus when you pee it cleanses anyways so you should think of it like that!

Answer 10

i see what you are saying, it does make sense, but i still would go with tampons.  Interesting though!

Answer 11

Topaz sweetie, I do see where your going with this. I do prefer tampons though. I cant stand that diaper wearing feeling. Tampons are more discreet and more comfortable.

Answer 12

I prefer tampons.  I used to use pads a long time ago when i was a virgin.  But i was way heavier then and also the blood would get everywhere and be all messy and it would feel like I was wearing a diaper!  Then as I got older I started to switch out.  Tampons during the day, Pads at Night.  Because I tried to be careful of getting Toxic Shock syndrome.  But now I only wear tampons when i am on my period but then again I am not as heavy as I was then

Answer 13

TAMPONS.

Answer 14

i prefer tampons and i;m 13!
