How many?


Question Posted Monday June 26 2006, 10:24 pm

Hi, this is embarassing. umm I've had my period for 2 years now and I'm going on a trip and I can't carry much luggage. I know I will get my period while I'm away, (it lasts for about 5 days) and I want to know about how many tampons I need to bring. (I can't remember) Thanks.

okay five days and you need to use one at least three times a day (when you wake up, during the day and bed time) now you do the math. i dont know if you use it 3 times a day but i do

I'd bring about 20, If I were you, just to be safe. Maybe more. It's definitely better to be safe rather than sorry when It comes to this subject, especially on a trip.

I know that this sounds like a lot but i bleed normal and i use about 15 each period cause i bleed for 5 days to and i have normal bleeding so but it really depends on how much you bleed in each period well GOODLUCK !!!

if you have it heavy, normal, then really light
get the tampax pearl multipack
if its just regular, i would get a box of 20 regular, but you may want to get 40 jsut to be safe

i always make sure that if im going somwhere that i cant buy more to bring a lot more then i will need

Well it really depends on the flow of your period because if you have a heavier flow you will need more tampons, but say your flow is regular I normally use about 2-3 tampons a day ( or more ) because I'm really cautious about changing them. =]( And hopefully your wearing a pad to bed, but you can wear a tampon if you don't sleep long ) But so say about 5 days, so 5 times 3 is 15 all together, but I'd probally take like 20, which seems like a lot but just to be on the safe side that sould be about right. Have a good period & vacation =] Hope I helped
