Aiyahhh...the string is very long one. You wont lose the string.



for beginner I think better get the ones with the applicators like playtex

Playtex has very easy to follow instructions and applicator. First time might hurt if you rush it. Take you time and youll do fine. Good luck ^^

lol....

playtex seriously easy to use.. doesnt hurt even if you're dry.. lol.. but those without applicator do hurt when you're dry..

actually why do women use tampons? I'm thinking of doing some night jobs so i won't think it's a good idea to wear pads with dress and all that,also during clubbing,i guess it's better to wear a tampon.


and i have one worry,if i'm having an extremely heavy flow,will it "overflow"? Assuming wearing it for 2 hours.

And ice,why do you use one without an applicator?

Thanks!!

Ya lor, goldfries shocked me as well..kekeke
Aiya, sanitary pad is another option ma..but a bit troublesome..

Gee, that's so scary..I don't want to go to the doctor

Personally I started wearing tampons because pads were SO uncomfortable! I remember once in school, my mom had to drive all the way to school during recess to give me tampons since i refused to wear a textbook thick pad for the rest of the day. That was of course back in the day when pads weren't so thin. I was also very into sports so tampons definitely were needed for that.

Benefits?
- no leakage (really heavy flow? you need to go for super. but max 4 hours, do not leave a tampon in past 4 hours ever. if it does leak it doesn't come out fast .. eek .. that sounds gross but true, so you have time to head to the loo and change)
- no need to wear 'granny' undies or clothing to cover up
- you can be active/sporty and not worry about it moving about (like a pad)

Downside
- you must be regular at changing your tampon, max 4 hours so sometimes you have to 'time' it and schedule
- tampons are expensive compared to pads
- on your light flow days, when you're dry it won't absorb so much so removal is leceh (use thin/day pad on these days instead)

hehe. I have more knowledge than you think la.

now back to topic la k? not about me and what I know.

Honestly the reason why i used the one without the applicator coz its cheaper and somehow its easier to get than the playtex one. Its available in more shops

i use tampons coz I dont like using pads. I find them uncomfortable and bulky. Plus it makes me feel icky and wet down there. if u hv heavy flow then change it more often or use the high absorbancy ones.

at night I usually use a pad coz don't want to make up in the middle of nite to change. Or towards the end of my period I'll use pads

plus u can still fool around with ur husband/bf if you wear tampons as opposed to pads

how much does a tampon cost?
will it hurt? nvr try b4..

ouch...never use tampons before but maybe need to experience it soon.

Hi i've just bought the OB tampon from caring pharmacy...it's the one without applicator and i'm a beginner so it hurts a lot even thogh it's heavy flow and even though my hymen is no longer there...and even though i've already pushed as deep as i can i'll still feel something in there,and when i sit it causes discomfort.is it my vagina just being too tight?



I don't understand how applicator helps though...really need some comment here

Where to get playtex anyway?

Thanks!!

I saw Playtex in Watson.

i bought it frm watson too.. tried it da 1st time.. on my 1st day.. maybe the flow wasnt enough.. felt abit wierd down there though.. haha.. didnt hurt.. juz wierd... maybe i put it in wrongly.. cuz it leaked.. hmm...

is your first day a heavy flow? There are different absorbency for tampons (just like pads hv slim and maxi). Mayb you should change it more often

mine was the slim 1.. frm playtex.. it wasnt a heavy flow.. when i took it out there were still places where it was still white.. but still it leaked.. hmmmm

why so scared the string will lose leh...

u can actually "push" the tampon out like how u "push" your stool out...
got me??

eh !! ladies room !! soli soli

huh? how to push?
