In my opinion tampons are better than pads for various reasons.

I like everything that goes on in there to stay in there. I don't like the worry of blood leaking through my pants and worrying that people will see. Plus when you stand up from sitting in a chair you wont feel the blood flow increase and rush down :) Its all good :)good luck!!

It all depends because if you are more active Tampons are right for you. If you don't do sports you have more of a choice. Pads are easier but you need a tampon for swimming. Try them both see whats right for you.

It's a matter of opinion which is best, although personally I'd opt for cups over both. Tampons pose health risks like TSS and vaginal infections so there are lots of precautions to follow, this makes them a little inconvenient. Pads can be uncomfortable but don't add to cramps like tampons, they are safer and simpler too. You have to use pads with tampons anyway so it's not like it's one or the other.

Pads are safer than tampons and simpler to use, some people also prefer to stick with external options due to personal reasons or just because of comfort. Whereas some people prefer to use tampons or other internal options like menstrual cups as it allows them more freedom to do activities such as swimming. Which menstrual product is better comes down to personal preference.

Do all girls have to wear tampons?

No, not all girls have to wear tampons and in fact there's little reason to use tampons when there are other options like pads or menstrual cups available. Girls often use tampons because they prefer them to pads and may not know that options like cups exist and can be much better than tampons. Some people cannot use menstrual cups so will use tampons when they need internal menstrual products.


Which is better tampons or pads?

The choice as to whether tampons or pads are better is a personal one. Some people find tampons more convenient, and some prefer pads. There is no health reason to use either unless you have previously had toxic shock, or are in a situation where hand washing or other hygiene aspects are difficult, in which case pads would be preferable. Both can be used throughout the period.


Is it better to use pad's then tampon's?

Well, tampons you can't really feel and pads it feels like you are wearing a diaper. Sometimes people just prefer tampons because when you get up with pads, it feels like there is a rush of blood flowing out. Tampons are more disposable and there's less chance of a leak. Then again to prevent leaks with a tampon is to wear a panty liner. But a way to feel alittle more fresh when your on your period is to bring some compack wet wipes from a brand such as always or playtex. It will just make you feel more clean and wash away all of the left or dried blood.I know it sounds revolting but no need to panic. And you can also swim with tampons rather then pads. So there for tampons are more disposable then pads. Thank you for listening to me blabber on. :)

How do you feel comfortable with period without tampon?

One option would be to use menstrual cups. Menstrual cups are internal like tampons but safer and more hygienic so can be worn for 12 hours, including with any flow and overnight without need to alternate with pads. Cups are more comfortable than tampons or pads and don't leak like tampons or pads.


What is better a tampon or a pad?

It's a matter of opinion which is better between tampons and pads - although when you're using tampons you still have to use pads, also there are other options like menstrual cups and softcups.Pads are a lot simpler than tampons and don't have health risks like Toxic Shock Syndrome like tampons. Tampons are internal so more discreet but have various health risks which means they're also inconvenient as there are a lot of precautions you have to follow, including still using pads.


Are tampons cheaper than pads?

They're CLEANER - wearing a pad is like wearing a diaper! * Tampons are not cleaner, the opposite is true, and only disposable pads feel like diapers. also you can get TSS from tampons which obviously isnt healthy :P


Do you where tampons or pads when your doing long activities?

You have more options than tampons and pads, you can use menstrual cups and softcups which can be worn for up to 12 hours (tampons and pads need to be changed after 4-6 hours or sooner if full), also they don't leak so more convenient than tampons or pads. If using tampons and pads you may want to use both so that the pads can act as back-up if your tampon leaks before you can get to the bathroom. Otherwise use as you would normally and just make sure to change often so it doesn't leak.
