Welcome to Gaia! ::

I see a lot of girls in this guild mention how the have a hard time using tampons because they say they hurt.

I've been using o.b. tampons since I was 12 and what I always liked about them so much is that they absorb really well and they are very small. Also, I have had major leaks with every other tampon and pad except this brand, even when it feels like it's sliding out.

This may be a downside to some girls: these tampons have no applicators. I never had a problem with that because you have better control over the tampon (in my opinion) plus I don't have anything against touching the area. I believe they do make this brand with applicators now, but I'm not entirely sure.

Hope that this helped. mrgreen

omg i feel your pain

I like just regular tampax.

They do make them with applicators now. I go the safe way and just use the extra absorbent ones xd Then I don't have to worry about leaks because I change it every 3 hours. If you are worried about leaks I would reccommend Tampax Pearl with the absorbant braid. Gives you a little extra time to run to the bathroom xp
