Sleeping on period?!


Question: Sleeping on period!?
ok so when i am on my period and i sleep at night, i always put a new tampon (regular size) and usually the first 3-4 nights, i wake up in the morning with a huge mess and i stain my underwear!. i have tried using toilet paper as a temporary pad while wearing a tampon as i sleep, but the TP doesn't absorb all the mess!. ARG!. sometimes i go to bed at like 11 then set my alarm for about 2am and get up and change it cause its full then i set my alarm for about 5 or 6 and get up again and change it!. its such a hassle! is there some way to NOT get the bloody mess in the mornings!?! i hate staining all my underwear and sometimes my sheets!. what do i do!? and does anyone else have this problem!?!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

You have to be careful with sleeping with tampons!.
Changing it every 8 hours is really important, more often especially if you're having this problem!. You could get TSS if you aren't careful!. Maybe wearing a mazi at night would help, but a big one!. they come in different sizes and changing it at night might be easier!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You could put a tampon and a maxi pad in!. I don't usually wear tampons, but when I do I usually put a pad in also because they leak sometimes!. Also, when I have a heavy period I put towels under my lower body so if I stain I won't stain my sheets!.

First of all, do NOT wear a tampon to bed!. That is VERY bad!. Advice, put a blanket under you, and wear a maxipad to bed!. Then you can avoid the messy sleeps!.

If you dont like using bulky pads, trying using the tampon and maybe a light day!. They are thin and might help!. But if there seems to be a lot, you may want to go for a regular pad unfortunatly!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
