Pads and tampons are two different types of menstrual products.
Pads are absorbent pads of material - disposable pads are made from either synthetic materials or cotton with a plastic backing, cloth pads are made from cloth. They are put into the bottom of a menstruating persons underwear and stay in place thanks either to sticky backing on disposable pads or snap fasteners on cloth pads, they college menstrual flow as it leaves the vagina.
Tampons are absorbent wads of material - disposable tampons are made from cotton or rayon and shaped a little like a rocket, soft tampons are made from a soft sponge and disk shaped, sponge tampons are made from natural sponge, and cloth tampons are rocket shaped made from cloth. They are inserted vaginally to absorb menstrual flow before it leaves the body.

"Always"pads and "Tampax Pearl Tampons"
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.
In my opinion I would say no
You wear pads of tampons
No it's not
There's no reason why they wouldn't. Presumably the rate at which Chassidic women use tampons v. pads is similar to the general American populace.

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
ask the nurse for pads or call your mom and tell her for pads or tampons.
