Answers:
dude, i was terrified to even be near my mum when she bought me pads when i was your age!.
but then she told me that she used to have to go out every week at the age of 12 to buy pads for her and for her sisters!.
and i got to thinking about it!.
and i realized!.
guys know that women have their periods!. and most of them are mature about it!. and if they're not; then they're not worth it!. so if a male clerk is immature about you buying pads; then he's obviously not even close to being in your league!.
and female clerks have gone through it all themselves!.
so don't be embarassed!.
you'd be surprised what clerks see now-a-days!.
old people buying condoms and lube!. 40 year old men buying tampons for their daughters!.
it's no biggy!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

don't worry, when i first started buying pads it was quite embarrassing but if you think about it, every woman/girl has to buy them and so it doesn't make you any different or more unusual!. Just be confident and look casual and then people will know that you are mature!. There is no point being scared as you will have to buy them sometimes and it just makes matters worse if you are really shy about it! just go ahead!Www@Answer-Health@Com

i made my mom buy mine for a year or so!. then she said i had to do it myself!. so what i did is i hid it under something else till i got up to the cashier!. then once i got to the registers i looked for a female cashier!. but eventually you'll get over it and it wont be as big of a deal anymore!.

What's to be embarrassed about!? Are you embarrassed to buy toilet paper, kleenex, soap or toothpaste for your other hygeine needs!? Pads and tampons are just as common and just as necessary!.

Everyone can *see* that you're female!.!.!. do you think they're all too stupid to know that females menstruate!?Www@Answer-Health@Com

You sound just like my 14-year old daughter!. She's had her period since she was 11 and she still won't buy them herself!. She has 4 more years to get used to it, because I draw the line once she's an adult!. You shouldn't be embarrassed; it's just like buying aspirin!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

ok when i just got my period i was afraid and embarrassed to go and buy pad myself!.!. but i said to my self that i shouldn't be embarrassed cause everybody goes through this and there's not to be ashamed of!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I was the EXACT same way when I first started my period!. It seems like its weird at first but nobody pays attention!. All those women in the store know exactly what you are going through because they have experienced the same things!. So dont be shy your ok =]Www@Answer-Health@Com

I was the same! I would get my mum to buy them, or buy a load of other things with them and just hide them underneath the other stuff!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Go to a woman on the till, act as nothing is unusal!. Every female goes through this so they wont think anything of it!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

Just hide them under a few other things!. Then when you checkout do it at the self checkout or just be brave and buy them!.
