what would you chose pads or tampons?...

what would you chose pads or tampons?

Ashley N	i use both, you shouldnt use just one thing because tampons can cause tss if used to often or for to long. pads can be uncomptorble so use them if your in the house and then tampons when you go out. but i prefer tampons there more comptorble.

Verona	for me, any thing external is better than use internal things ... but i think tampons are not bad ... although i never used them before ... use what ever you feel more comfortable with ...

amy.	I usually use both, because I have heavy periods.

ummmmm	Pads. Tampons can cause a deadly syndrome.

SASHA M	Tampons

melc	everyone is different.. i prefer pads..dont want to stick anything up there that can get stuck..only if i want to lol

sylar's girl	both, pads are more comfortable though

Chichi	pads are good for you as it fits well on you.

Medical Assistant	I wear both. I wear a tampon because its just cleaner and I wear a thin every day pad in case there is a bit if leaking. Tampons are the best thing ever created

ELSY M	Well wat i would choose is pads. I'm telling u this cause i use them and they r so comfortable!!

Sandra D	definitly tampons unless you like to wear diapers....you cant even tell that your wearing anything....you only get TSS if you leave them in to long....

Misty	Tampons....I feel much cleaner.

Luvly	I only use pads because I find tampons to be uncomfortable, especially for light days. Also, tampons have been known to cause (in rare cases) Mastitis and toxic shock syndrome. Unless you need to swim, go with the pads because they pose no risk to your body.

Tosha W	definally tampons- much cleaner- and less bulky- I feel like I have a mini diaper on with pads- And the extra thin tiny panty liners always seem to leak. And the thicker one's make me feel selfconscious.Like people can see them through tight pants.

Tif	Tampons; I feel cleaner.

soccerlover1721	I've always used pads, because I can't quite figure out tampons yet! :) Even though I will admit they kinda ruin the week of my period because they're so messy. I'm only being honest here. I almost wish my mom had started me off on tampons though because then I might not be having such a hard time with the emotional breakdowns. :)

mii iz good	i use pads i want to use tampons.the bad thing of pads it that the blood mite get on your under ware or worse ur close. when i sleep I'm scared because i feel that blood comes out so wen u sleep u should use big pads. well dats all in my opinion

justpeachee22	I use tampons during the day, but pads at night. Leaving a tampon in for more than 8 hours and/or overnight can put you at a higher risk for Toxic Shock Syndrome. (the leaflet is included in most tampon boxes) Other than that, it's mostly a personal preference---pads are too messy for me, although those new ones with the wipes attached are great! You don't have to change a tampon as often and they work better when your flow is heavy. Whatever you decide to use, find a brand that you like and works well for your flow--I like Kotex tampons and the new Always stay-clean ultra-thin pads with wings. Good luck :)

racey dweik	I like pads. But if you have it heavily and work or go to school its good to use both at the same time.

Queenie Peavey	i only use tampons

daniella	tried tampons and it does not suit me so i am on pads now.

just_looking thanx	both day or night depends

Brutally Honest	I only use tampons. The last time I used a pad was when I gave birth to my son almost 15 years ago.

=dominique=	i dont feel comfortable with tampons..i have always used pads...

carolyn	I have to use both, because I leak with tampons no matter what. But what I really recommend is the Diva Cup (www.divacup.com). It saves you money and you can keep it in for up to twelve hours. It also feels a little more natural because you're letting your body bleed. Sure, it seems a little archaic, and I occassionally use a tampon, but I like it better overall.

Popsicle_1989	pads

Erin	i use pads

Future FBI	It depends on what feels more comfortable to you. I usually use pads. Even through pads are a bit bulky, tampons freak me out. You read about toxic shock syndrome as a result of leaving your tampon in to long. When it is to long? So I stick to pads.

sunshine8113	i use tampons but sleep with pads...i dont think its always good to use tampons...TSS...but if i had to choose i would use tampons

Missy	tampons, but u have to b careful putting them in.

Ariel 128	My periods are so heavy that I have to use both. Maybe that's why I'm always so anemic and tired.
