Whenever i wear a tampon (regular) i end up getting blood on my underwear even if i just put the tampon in 5 minutes ago. I make sure after i put one in i wipe around there so it won't but it still does. I don't want to wear a pad and a tampon because i don't like pads that much and that's why i prefer tampons but it keeps getting blood on my underwear. Why is this?
You could be the type of girl who has a heavier flow. If you DO have heavy flows, try getting a larger size tampon. Or just wear a panty liner and a tampon. Panty liners are thinner than pads but still basically do the same thing.
Or:
It's not placed correctly when you insert it; thus blood is sneaking around it.
Pull it down slightly after you push it in until you can feel the tip of the bottom of it with your finger in up to its first joint. That's how I insert mine and mine don't leak.
It takes a while to figure out how to get it in the right position.
Try using a different brand of tampon?
I use OB tampons because they are round, not stick-like, and they fit a little better as they get soaked. Changing more frequently will help, but if you are getting 'leak by', like your tampon is not entirely soaked and still you have bled through, you need a different style of tampon.
Hope I helped, let me know. =]
