i'm just curious, what do you all prefer? I'm almost 24 and only use pads. Am I the only one my age who does that? I've never really tried a tampon and I'm comfortable with pads so i've never really wanted to change. what about you?

To be honest, I use the tampon in most of time than pad. Tampon more sanitary and prevent odors. I use it just during a day and I change it every 4 hours or less. And I never use the tampon when I goes to the bed. I have to use the pad for bed times. I don't wear the pad during daytime.

I'm older than you and use pads too. I've tried tampons but just don't like them. I guess we are the only two who use pads LOL

I'm 17 and I use both. When its really light I use pantiliners or light pads but when its heavy I use tampons. Tampons are great for the heavier days and there is no odor! :)

pads at night, so that I can sleep without having to get up to change a tampon
but tampons throughout the day!
tampons are much better, no feeling of wearing a diaper, no odors, FREEDOM

I usually use tampons most of the time with a pantiliner. Occasionally I use pads. If you feel that what you use works for you, there's no reason to change.

I'm 18 and I only use pads. I've tried O.B. tampons and they were alright but i just prefer pads plus there is TSS to think about.

I used pads the first year I first got my period, tried tampons and liked them soo much better. It's a personal choice...choose whatever you feel comfortable with.

honestly i can't use tampons. there is something with the females in my family, because none of them can or could use them. But i think tampons would be better, but pads it is.
