What Girls Said
Pads
Never used anything else and i don't want to try anything else. I feel more comfortible with pads.
pads aren’t the most sanitary 😳 you GaG girls here are scaring me 😂
What's your preference?
I don’t have a period anymore but when I did I used tampons. Never had a problem with them and they kept me at the peak of health
Well, I've never had a problem with pads either. 🤷♀️
It’s just easier to get an infection with them and most of the name brand ones have some really harmful chemicals in them
But doesn't tampons feel like a small dick stuck inside?🤔
@Hangry22 No, not at all. Most of the ones on the market today are slim and flexible and absorbent. They do the job without the user noticing.
Can they be used for heavy flow?
@Hangry22 yeah absolutely. You can change them as many times as you wish and they’re virtually mess free. Never had a heavy flow but that sounds as if it would be ideal to me
Thanks🙂
@Hangry22 sure
@Hangry22 Lmao.. I swear that's how it felt when I tried them. 😂
@babysteph It's easy to get an infection from tampons too, considering that they are literally holding blood that's supposed to be coming out inside of you. You can't exactly keep them in over night either. You can keep a pad on for a longer time and not have to worry about getting a life threatening infection.
sitting in your own blood is more likely to cause an infection than inserting something that absorbs it and then removing it. and if a tampon felt like a penis to you then.. wow.
Honestly, I don't know why you're being judgy about this. It's common knowledge that pads are safer and I'm sure that's why a lot of women prefer them over tampons. The main complaint I hear about pads is that it feels like you're wearing a diaper, so I understand why some women choose tampons. But I would rather use something that carries less of a risk.
I’m not judging at all. Each woman is entitled to do what she thinks is best for her, of course. I’m just expressing my support of tampons as someone who’s had a great experience with them and thinks they’re safer and more sanitary than pads.
Since I can choose when to have my period with my birth control it’s lighter so tampons I use to wear a cup but I got tired of it.
Right now pads. Before when I had a heavier flow I used tampons.
Tampons.. because you don't feel them and you can do all activities without worrying about leaking pads and wet ass discomfort.
Pads, 100%. I don't fancy the thought of getting TSS and going to the hospital!
The solution is cotton tampons.
Pads, lol I’m too afraid to stick a tampon or anything else in there 😅
I feel like I’d hurt myself trying to do that. Pads are just easier for me.
I have only used pads
#PadGirl4ever
I do pads when I’m at home, but tampons when I’m out, since I’m always paranoid that my pad outline is showing.
Pads mainly buy they can be annoying if they don't sit properly with the panties.
