period
This is a question for the girls. I have to wear white pants tomorrow at school and just my luck i got my period today! And of course when i get my period i get paranoid about having leaks. My sister has tampax pearl tampons that are super and i dont think thats the size i need and i cant get ahold of her to ask. But my question is which is better to prevent leaks pads or tampons?If tampons which is best to use? If any of you use tampax pearl have u ever had any leaks? Thanks a bunch!!

Just a warning before I give you advice, since I'm assuming you're a teen, try to avoid the SUPER SIZE tampons. There's a warning on the instructions that come with the box of TSS syndrome which can be deadly. So just try to stick with the regulars :)
But my advice to prevent any sudden mishaps is to use both! Use a tampon (the Tampax Pearl is great) and stick a thin pad on your underwear so it doesn't bulk up. Make sure to have extras handy in your purse just in case you feel it coming down.
Hope this helps!

just wear both! tampax pearls are awesome, i am really picky and only use those. super ISN'T bad for you at all, but it's best to choose the tampon that's right for your period flow. super is for a heavy flow, and so on.

Wear both. Tampax Pearl tampons are the best.
Super ones are bad for you, though. Use regulars and change them often.

Both. Wear both. I've had leaks from just tampons, but if you wear a pad that'll catch any small leakage.

i always use tampax pearl, and the only times i ever get leaks is if i don`t change it often enough. if your period is heavy get the supers and change them as often as you can, if not regulars should be fine but still change it often. and if you`re still really worried just wear a tampon and a pad. that way if you do leak it won`t show through on your clothes.

i personally would go with the tampon. i've never leaked (well maybe once with a really light one on a normal day) try a regular one and you should be fine. just check it often. <3

I would have been paranoid too. I would wear both. Tampax and pad.
Of course I was always a big chicken. :)
