Girls, how do you hide pads, ect. at school?

I never really took them to school.
If I thought that I'd be on my period then I'd wear the pad before going to school and check at break or lunchtime and use toilet roll.
Though if it started at school then I would usually be able to feel it (sounds gross but I could tell) and I'd use the toilets at school and use toilet paper.
The reason I didn't take any to school is because I was inclined to forget to remove the plastic wrapper from my bag when I changed my pad at home so I figured "what's the point in having it if I'm going to end up forgetting about it anyway?".

It depends on what I'm wearing that day. If you're in the middle of class and need to use one, I recommend putting it into a jeans pocket, boot/shoe, or in your bra. In a backpack or bag, I put it in a small zipper pouch that looks similar to a pencil case.

If I'm on my period or nearing it, I keep one in my pencil pouch so that way if I have to go to the bathroom to change my pad in the middle of class I don't have to look all weird and take my whole back pack with me to the bathroom. Carrying a pencil pouch with me to the bathroom looks less ovvious

I don't hide them. I've had purses with small pockets in them, i'd just put loose tampons in there. I've had purses with no pockets, so I got a small bag with tampons in it that I placed in my purse. Don't hide it, there's nothing to be ashamed of.

I've had boys pull them out and be like "OH" and awkwardly place them back. I'd just laugh.

Girls getting their period is a natural thing so I never felt that anyone needs to hide their pads or tampons. But you can hide it in your book bag, a small travel bag, in your locker, or in your pocket. Also don't forget that your bra can be your storage place for other things as well

We have school-issued jackets with inside pockets in the form of fleece and windbreakers which easily conceal sanitary things, and other things like lipgloss and such. Some people keep them in their backpacks and go to their locker when in need. It's not all that hard, really.

But also, some people keep them in their pencil pouch and at this point we don't even care because guys already know we go through, so if they see one they just look away. Some of our nicer female teachers will actually keep a drawer empty in their desk for the sole purpose of keeping them for other girls.

I don't go to school anymore but I've never really felt the need to hide my tampons or pads. Every girl has their period at some point. Why hide it when it's such a mundane thing.

Hide them in a backpack or start to carry a small purse around if you aren't able to go to your backpack throughout the day.

I usually bring another "pencil case" and keep everything in there

[fluffyassunicorn]

I keep my tampons In the waterbottle pouch of my backpack. Easy access that way

[katiesmuff]

I've never really hid them. It is a natural part of life and what are we hiding.

[justpleaseanswer]

I don't hide them sometimes but otherwise the bra is the way

In my rucksack. Inside an inner zipped compartment. Difficult to find if you do not know it is there.

I was a swimmer in high school, I kept them in my swim bag as well as my backpack.

[fauchelevent]

I just kept them in my bag.

I usually put mine in a pencil case or something so it's not overly obvious
