Best way to prevent period leaks?!


Question: Best way to prevent period leaks?
I wear pads and I always worry about leaks.
Are there any good ways to make sure you don't get any leaks?
I hate going to school worrying about it.

Answers:

What i do is wear a size bigger pad then i need. Like if my flow is regular i would wear a super. Also if you start to feel wetness, go check your pad, dont wait too long after you start to feel that as your pad is filling up.



I always worried about leaks, until i started using birth control. My period was always so heavy and i had to use the overnight pads and sometimes i needed to change then every hour. Now ive been on birth control for 2 years and my period is very light now and lasts for about 4 or 5 days, i love it! I also use tampons now, which i hated before cause they always hurt no matter what. Now that ive been using them for 6 months i dont even feel them. I use the pearl glide one and stick basically the entire applicator in me and i pull the tampon in, so its not close to the opening of my vagina cause i realize now, thats why it always hurt. If your not comfortable with tampons, i use to use the pads with wings because i noticed i would mostly leak because the pad wouldn't stay sticking to the edge of my underwear so sometimes the pad would not even be inbetween my vagina and my underwear.

Ugh, hate my period. So annoying, but every woman gets it.

Anyways, one thing that helps prevent leaks is using the long pads with the wings. Used them for two years, have never once leaked. ^^



I usually buy the extra long pads. I suggest using winged ones so the sides don't leak. You should also make sure that you change your pad at least every couple of hours, or when it's obviously quite soiled.



A dam. Or double pad



poor milk in ur pads
