I've always hated tampons. I still keep trying them and use them for swimming but they always feel uncomfortable! I usually switch to a pad after cd 1.

I have gotten away from using them at all when I am at home because I cramp so badly when I use them. But when I go out I use the tampons. Sometimes I get it in their weird and it bothers me or I can feel it but most the time its not an issue too bad. I dont know which I hate worse the cramps I get from tampons or the mess I make with pads. Having to have periods just sucks....but I wont complain since I dont have them regularly and I can't concieve without them LOL

 I have to take 2 Midol and a Motrin if I want to use tampons b/c they make me cramp something awful. I hate them! Only wear one to go out or to go swimming.

RIGHT I hear ya! Periods just suck! But now instead of flowing constant I am basically just spotting well more like streaking because its only really when I wipe...this is just anoying but I hurt like I am flowing like a river

I tried them off and on for years and never quite liked them they always hurt mostly because I have a light to medium flow but I found that the lightdays ones werent as bad, but me personally I can get by using panty liners mine are so light.

I always have to use light tampons & I prefer the playtex sport ones otherwise they hurt & make my vagina feel swallen & irritated BUT I absolutely hate pads, feel dirty & icky even if I change them constantly. Periods suck period lol.

If used incorrectly they can hurt. Try a lighter version and getting it in right. Or just switch to pads. No harm in pads.

I'm confused. I read a post from you in the pregnancy forum earlier and I may have misunderstood but I read a reply where you said you were pregnant. If you are, it just concerns me that you're bleeding. If I'm mistaken, I apologize, just curious if you'd consulted your doctor about it.
