Your period... DO you prefer tampons or pads?

Contributor: Sassybunny85 Sassybunny85
I've had difficulties wearing tampons since my son, so I've stuck with pads, although I was more of a pad girl the past few years just for the simple fact that my pelvic pain gets worse if I use tampons.

Sometimes there are days that a tampon won't do the job, so if I could, I would vote "both".

Pads only, I can't stand the way tampons feel.

I've tried cups and pads but always go back to tampons.

I've switched to using both. Tampons when I work and pads the rest of the time. I've been getting cramps with tampons.

Pads. I won't use tampons ever. I have an awful experience with one.

I use both. I've been cursed with a chronically heavy flow. I'm interested in the diva cup, but I need to do some research on it first.

I can't stand using pads....I feel like Im wearing a diaper lol. I don't care how thin they come, how much they hold or if they have wings or not...it still feels weird. A tampon I never feel, doesn't bunch.

Tampons mostly but I am always soooo heavy I have to wear both most of the 7-9 days. :-( That's one of the greatest things about being pregnant...no period for another 8 months or more!

None of the above, I use a menstrual cup and it is da bomb!

I definitely prefer my Diva Cup over anything else. It's been with me for a long time and has paid for itself several times!

Tampons. Less of a hassle.

Since tampons stopped hurting for me to use, I prefer to wear them unless I'm at home. Less leaky!

Tampons if I'm working/running around. If I'm just lounging around the house I'll wear pads to give my vagina a break.

Diva cup or Disposable instead cups.

PADS. Tampons don't agree with me. Do you know what kinds of chemicals they put into your body?! They bleach those things! I'd really like to switch to the diva cup but I'm having problems with that too. Cloth pads may be in my future...
