Girls, do you use tampons or sanitary towels?

Just curious :smile:

!
Personally, I find tampons so much easier. But a few people I know won't/don't use them - if this is you, why not??

Sanitary towels, I always think tampons would be uncomfortable after a long time. :smile:

I recently started using tampons and they're far easier than pads..... Pads are so messy and i never feel clean...

Tampons ftw

I never have used tampons (I sort of tried once).. I want to though, god it would be so much easier! I guess I'm just kinda scared? Yeah I'm an idiot...
Definitely going to give it another go, when I have my next period!

Thought one was a polite way of saying the other. Huh.

That means they are not inserted far enough. When they are inserted properly you cannot feel them at all :smile:

A thread with a lot of anon going on :tongue:

I use both - tampons only when it's REALLY heavy like gushing and gushing out of me like a TAP like it always is at the start of my period. :biggrin:

Then after a couple of days when there's hardly anything left only smidgens I use towels becasue it's not good to use tampons on a really light flow, and I'd forget to change them often if I didn't need to.

I tried to make that post as disgusting as possible by the way. :colondollar:
