i use to wear pantyliners no matter what. leakage and when you should change your tampon is based upon your menstrual flow. if you're heavy, you should change often. and, i for safe measures would change every 2-4 hrs even with light flow. at nite, it's a bit different. of course, i am going solely off of when i could use tampons. i no longer can use them, due to endometriosis and toxic shock syndrome. try to change them when you can, even if they aren't full, and take some time on the toilet to let it flow out (your body needs that). Check your box of tampons for the side effects of tss, and if you ever have those symptoms remove your tampon and see a doctor. (tss is not common, so don't worry about it less you have these symptoms.) I am glad to see you can use them now. I didn't comment on your last post, for not knowing what to say. take care~ :)
