What do you think, girls? Is it weird? I can't stand tampons, and TP works much better than conventional pads...I'm kinda worried that it may cause infections somehow.

I would in an emergency, but overall I wouldn't trust it. It's a little too thin for my personal heavy days.

Toilet paper is designed to break down when it gets wet. I can't imagine how that sticky mess can feel comfortable. Pads are designed to wick the moisture away from the surface of the pad. Besides, pads have adhesive, TP does not. They stay put better.

TP could in basic terms be utilized in absolute emergencies, you fairly shouldn't wait 2 days. yet to help a TINY bit on including ansorbency, fold up a paper towel, positioned it on the backside of your panties, then wrap the TP around the towel and panties. It wont be as good as a pad, regardless of the undeniable fact that it's going to delay somewhat greater efficient than lavatory paper on that's very own.

i read it somewhere that using TP is not really safe. Anyway, it's better to use tampon or pads. After all, u wouldn't want any infections right?

I don't think it could cause an infection, but it could sure cause a leak. And it would be enbarrising. TP is not as resistant as pads or tampons, and what if ur flow is to much, u could stain ur jeans.

i've done it, lol... i'd be at school, and be out of pads.... believe it or not, there are better pads... and unless you want an embarassing moment like i had once (the TP fell out of my pants leg! woooooah embarassing!) i'd keep looking around for the perfect pad for you... my personal fave is the Always pads with the wipes! i loooove the extra clean feeling that comes from those! good luck! and....... stick with conventional methods.... that's from personal experience :o)

I only do that when I don't have anything to use because I, for some reason, do not track my period that closely.
That's not good because it soaks up all the moisture in your vaginal region and that could lead to chafing and discomfort. It may even lead to a yeast infection because pads have a special material that doesn't stick to you so that area can "breathe."

i dont really know but in my opion i feel that you shouldnt use tp as a pad because it is much easier for you to have a leak and i think it might stick to your skin

well its not harmful to your body its just that most women prefer pads than TP becuz it stays put and it holds more. but if this works for you then good job lol
