What do you use for your period?

I chose "Menstrual Cup" but I use menstrual cups with cloth pads as back-ups or for lighter days.

I was using tampons + liners until a few cycles ago when I started using a DivaCup. I love it!

Pads. I've tried just about everything except for cloth pads (for some reason they kinda skeeve me out) and this is what I'm comfortable with. I'm dying to pick up a box of RepHresh tampons.

I'm lucky enough to have very light (and very regular, due to being on the pill) periods, so tampons are fine for me. I want to try the divacup really badly but... To be honest I find other things to spend my money on. Someday...

O.O . . . it's like, you know I was on my period. Freaky. Kidding, well no, I am on my period but you knowing before I blabbed about it. I use pads most of the time ( hate them ) unless I go swimming and then I use tampons. But sometimes, rarely, I'll use tampons and panty liners. I'm curse with heavy periods so I have to be well guarded. I am not repeating that sixth grade incident all over again. lol.

I have endometriosis that causes a heavy flow and extreme pain so I use pads only. Tampons are banned in my house because they hurt so bad. (I know it's not the angle because of the health issues that cause chronic pain).

I use a cup and hand sewn cloth pads as back up or when I just don't feel like using the cup.

I couldn't get used to the menstrual cup, though I wanted to. I probably need to try a different brand or size. But then, I have trouble with tampons too. You aren't supposed to be able to feel them, but I always do, even the really slender teen size ones.

I prefer to keep the blood off my panties so I usually use both a pad and a tampon, though it doesn't help that my 'time of the month' comes whenever it damn well pleases instead of keeping to a normal schedule.

I use tampons and pads. I use tampons mainly with pads as a backup in case I leak. I always feel 100 times better when I wear a tampon than when I wear a pad.
