heyy, i'm new and i absolutely love this community! anyways, i have 2 questions:

first of all, whenever i have my period and wear a tampon, the blood leaks down the string! i always think i've used the whole thing and like 'wow i must be really heavy', but when i take it out there's like nothing absorbed in the tampon! i always have to wear pantiliners with them... i use playtex brand... and basically the whole thing is really annoying! has anyone else had this problem and/or any solutions?

also, i was just wondering... ok this is kind of embarassing, but where does everyone's pubic hair extend to... like does anyone else have it around their anus?

and last but not least, a quick rant... omg i think it is the most annoying thing ever to have my period on day 2 or 3, because it's so obvious!! i have to go to the bathroom SO often, always with my purse, and UGH there's like no way to hide it! this especially sucks when 2 of my best friends are guys, and i'm normally with them... they find it slightly amusing, but mostly probably gross, and i find it extremely embarassing AHH!!!

aaaand that is all, thanks ;)

Try different brands/styles of tampon. There may be one that fits you better than the one you're using now. Some people like OB's, but I never could get used to them--I don't have a problem with the no-applicator aspect, but they just never seemed to fit me right and were always painful to me. Other brands, I never had that problem.

Also, the DivaCup or other menstrual cup may definitely be something to consider, for reasons stated above.

And yeah, don't feel embarassed about your period! If guys have a problem with it they seriously need to grow up because it's something that's just a normal factor of life.
