Actually pads are a lot more hygienic than tampons - tampons prevent vaginal cleaning while allowing bacterial growth, thus why tampons commonly cause vaginal infections and are linked to TSS, also why tampons have to be alternated with pads to allow your vagina a chance to clean itself.

Tampons shouldn't hurt as long as you're using them correctly - use correct absorbency for your flow and relax during insertion, remember too that they can't be used with light flow. It would be much better to use menstrual cups or softcups as they are more hygienic than tampons and no need for pads.

How do you ask your mom for ubykotex tampons?

You say something along the lines of the following:'Mom, can you please get me X brand tampons? Thank you!'Do remember that rayon tampons like Kotex pose much greater health risks than cotton tampons, so your mom may not agree to buy you these - that's not a bad thing, you can always use cotton tampons or use safer products like menstrual cups or softcups. You can also just try buying these yourself or put them in the basket when you're next at the store with your mom.

Yes, I'm not sure what makes you think it wouldn't be okay. Having knee surgery doesn't have any effect on whether or not you can use tampons.


How old were you when you started wearing tampons?

There is no good age to start wearing tampons, you don't even have to use tampons at all - generally speaking it's best to start with pads, and if you want to use internal menstrual products it's best to use menstrual cups or softcups which are safer than tampons and make your periods easier.Tampons are not recommended to pre-teens or teens, this is because even if you're mature and responsible enough to understand risks and follow precautions to reduce those risks, younger women are at higher risk of TSS as they're less likely to have TSST-1 antibodies. It's also not recommended to use tampons for at least the first six cycles, this is because it's unlikely you'd even have a regular flow let alone know your flow well enough to know what absorbency is safe to use.


Does it hurt to get blood drawn?

What are better tampons or pads?

It's a matter of personal preference. Tampons allow women more freedom to be more active such as participating in swimming and gymnastics, however they are not very healthy or hygienic so pose multiple health risks and can increase menstrual cramps - due to health risks like TSS there are also many precautions to follow, including having to wear pads, so they aren't very convenient. Pads can be more uncomfortable depending on what type you wear, but are simpler to use with fewer risks. There's a lot of variation between different types of tampons and pads too - for example a commercial pad is far different from a cloth pad, or a conventional tampon is far different from a soft or sponge tampon. There are also other options too such as menstrual cups and softcups which are internal like tampons but safer and more hygienic so no health risks and fewer precautions to follow, also with cups there's no need for pads at all.
