I dont know which ones to use, Tampons or pads?

Teresa	Mmmmmmm................Depends!!!!

Blu	tampons, pads are gross and uncomfortable.

kristine	It's up to you, really. Tampons let you do more things like play sports, go swimming, etc. Pads are nice too, since you can't get diseases from it, like TSS that's associated with the tampon.

cari210kel	i use tampons during the day, and pads at night. it's not good to sleep in tampons. but it really is based on personal preference.

Oshiznit	Tampons

Darlene	whatever makes you feel comfortable...

cooker_upper1	How old are you? How heavy is your flow? Its really up to you. Some women with really heavy flow use both. Tampons are not so cumbersum and you stay drier but anything you put up there, if its not clean, could cause an infection. If you are not moist enough, it could cause an irritation. Pads are non-invasive and will never give you an infection but you could encounter leakage. Depends on your personal preference

♥~Paki_G1rL~♥	i use pads because they are easy to use!

Shea S	I'd say if your staying at home pads, because there more comfortable. But if your going out maybe tampons.

Damn it Stubby ™!	Tampons in my opinion are the best! Thy dont feel like diapers and dont listen to what some people say they dont hurt if they are inserted up far enough you dont even feel them! Congrats on your period and welcome to womanhood!

Wisenheimer	Tampons. Pads are outdated and just gross!

tevballer44	if it is your first period then it might be better to were a pad thats what i did for my first period but it is totally up to you whatever is more comfortable.

Steph	Don't use tampons for your first period, use a heavy pad. If you are going swimming or going to do something where you are active and can't concentrate on making sure you're not bleeding, wear a tampon.

brianna	Tampons would be best becuase thers like pretty much a guarantee it wont leak

volleygirl909	if you are active or r playing a sport i would use a tampon but other than that i would use pads.

moonsky	Use a tampon and wear a pad as-well because the tampon will leak at one unexpected point and you will need to change your tampon and pad once again. This way your clothes will be safe!

shey l	tampons. pads make you have bad smells and are just nasty. do you want to be wearing a diaper and sitting in your blood???????????

loveny	i think you should use pads tampons arent that safe use tampons if your going out if your staying home use pads

jeepiegurl	I like tampons...the pads are a pain for me. They never stay put and they are messy and nasty. If you are comfortable using tampons then use them. If you have never used them before give them a try, once you get the hang of it its really easy!!!

An G*	depends on how heavy your menstral flow is, if it is heavy enough and you are comfortable with it, then use a tampon it is your preference not ours

durux_03	i'm not a girl, but from sex-ed I learned that most people start out by using pads and then later turn to tampons.

e13333	Its really a personal choice, but tampons give you a little more freedom since there are things you can't do with pads. (Like swimming and running)

manfromblueriver	pads are better because they let it flow, but for some activities you will need a tampon

L♥VE	i just started wearing tmapons and if you get them in right they are sooo much better than pads

♥ Bethany ♥	I use pads.. but its all based on personal preference.

angela11894	Whatever fells confortable to u I prefer Tampons though!

Kayla	Pads! My period last longer when I use tampons.

Candy	If this is you're first period I'd start with pads before you get used to it and t hen use tampons.

EZ 2 B ME	tampons are much more comfortable, but thats totally up to you.

link00777rl	for a heavy period both. for a light period use a tampon it wont show through your clothes.

Jackie	i prefer tampons but would reccommend for your first couple periods to use pad. tampons can be used for up to 8 hrs. and it is ok to sleep with one in and yes they do cause tss but it says right on the box of tampons that tss is very rare. you cant get any other diseases from tampons and they are more comfortable than pads. but like i said for your first couple periods i would use pads or they do make slim tampons which are more comfortable than regular tampons.
