Cup all the way, occasionally period underwear if heavier than normal but Iβm actively making an effort to lessen my consumption of disposable products. I started using a cup a few years a ago and it stopped all cramps and lessened my period from 5-6 days to 3 so Iβd never go back. Once you get passed the ick factor there are no negatives

I'm definitely a tampon girl during the day and a pad girl at night.
What Girls Said
Since having a baby a few months ago I don't want to go back to using my tampons just yet. So I use pads and I look gorry when I go to pee I hate it. I'm really surprised many girls say pads I've always hated them. Tampons are super comfortable and leave your crotch cool not warm and swampy. Plus I do not like looking down and seeing all my blood or feeling it drip down into the pad just yuck.
Since I'm new to pads how long do you ladies keep these things on for? Cause last time I just changed them every 4 to 6 hrs because fear of sweat and bacteria growth.Pads for when I'm at home, tampons when I go out. Tampons are a life saver, for years I've despised the feeling of sitting down then having tons of blood leak out at once the moment I stand up and not being able to clean up immediately because I'm outside or when I'm walking. Sadly tampons gotta be changed often when the flow is heavy and that's sometimes not really ideal in certain situations. I feel too scared to sleep with one because of possible toxic shock. But damn do I wish I could! I hate the surprise leaking in the morning.
Pads but mine hasn't been on since July. It just won't come on 🤦ββοΈ It keeps skipping like 6 months after coming on once a month, three months in a row
I go with pads all the time. No hate on tampons but I've tried them and just feel more comfortable with pads. You won't have leaks if your size is right, and I just worry less with pads.
I use tampons and period panties. I've tried the cups but those dont feel right inside me. Pads are like wearing a diaper so only thing that works for me is tampons.
Pads cause I know there's some tissue in there as well lol and I feel weird plugging the hole up when I wanna get that shit out.
pads! I've used a tampon once in my life. I wear a pad with period panties and it gives me 110% confidence that I'll have no leaks.
Pads at night. Then a mix of pad/tampon through the day.
I just let it flow all over the place. The bed, the pavement, my jeans, the seat on the bus...
I use to wear tampons when I was in school because it's was convenient but now I only wear pads.
