Are you a girl that just got her period and you would like to know 10 pros and cons of using a pad for your period?
Are you terrified of using tampons because of TSS and you would like to know just how much you will be benefiting (or not benefitting) from those pads? Well, below, I am going to help you out by giving you 5 pros and 5 cons of using pads for your period…
First, I am going to share some person advice with you. I hate tampons simply because I do not like to have to wear the pantyliner. I mean, you might as well be wearing the pad if you have to wear a pantyliner as well. Besides, tampons have a tendency to leak and I absolutely HATE that.
Pros:
Pro #5
The pads are definitely reliable, as long as you put it on right.
Pro #4
Despite what you may have heard, pads can be comfortable. They make ultra thin pads that do not let leaks through.
Pro #3
They are easy to use and change. They do not take much time to put them on and they do not require having to touch down there and get blood on your hands. (ew).
Pro #2
There are many different brands to choose from. Many of those brands are high quality and are super absorbent.
Pro #1
I really like the fact that you do not have to worry about TSS when you wear a pad!
Are there any more pros that you can think of right now?
Const on the next page …
With a pad it certainly feels like you’re wearing a diaper.
I totally hate them!!!
They are smelly and show through most of my pants and dresses.
Tampons are my version of comfy and it feels as if I don’t even have my period. I use pads at home and surely tampons for my outings.
For me wearing as pad during my period have more cons than pros.
But still thanks the same mel for listing those toughts with us.
Who is having his first periods and is trying to decide which of pads and tampons are the best, these posts surely help.
Xannyy,
You are so right about that! I wish someone would have shared these thoughts back when I got my first period. My mom was helpful but I could have used other opinions. And I was too shy to talk about it with other friends because I was an early bloomer…
i just hate that when you have your cycle… you can have an ACCIDENT with tampons or pads… or BOTH at the same time lol

Jen,
If you are more comfortable with tampons, then that’s what you should stick to.
Thanks for stopping by :)
