16/f
This is a little embarrasingg but I have a heavy flow..my period is extremely heavy when ever its that time of the month..its so heavy that it'll fill up a large pad in an hour or less...its so embarrasing because it sometimes leaks out and gets on my jeans..and ill walk around with a big period stain till someone says something to me..I don't know how to control it. How can I slow down my period without taking any birth control..and how can I fix my leaking problem..
Try using a tampon. You don't feel every leak drip out like you would with a pad, and it usually doesn't get on your clothes. It can happen sometimes, but I've been using tampons for almost 2-3 years now and it's only happened to me a few times.
Use a Super absorbency tampon. Since you tend to have a heavier flow, a tampon with that absorbency will work better. :) If I were you, I'd also just bring an extra pair of jeans & panties with you when you're out & on your period so that way if you do leak through, you have a back up pair of jeans/panties so you're not walking around with a huge, embarrassing stain.

If you can wear tampons wear one of those plus the pad for extra protection to stop those embarissing spills, hope this helps! [ Unusual's advice column | Ask Unusual A Question ]
