No more towels for me its Mooncup every month from now on, girls!

Advantages: cheap,eco-friendly,kind to skin
Disadvantages: there are none

I cannot believe that Mooncup has been around for years and I had not heard of it til six months ago when a told me about how she had been using one as an alternative to tampons and towels. As the story goes I have an acute allergic reaction to towels and tampons always let me down plus I was annoyed at the cost every month at was is actually an unavoidable expense and also the impact on the enviroment. Mooncup seemed to offer an answer to all these ...
...eighteen pounds which I worked out would have paid for itself within five months. It is easy to fit after a few practice sessions and is truly comfortable. Once fitted in place it collects everything and you just need to empty it every few hours. You can then rinse and replace and is so discreet to use unlike towels that you have to find a bin for. After your period you can soak it in a weak bleach dilution and replace it into its own neat little ...

...was an advert for new Tena Mini Lady Pads. This not only managed to make me jump but also thoroughly embarrassed me in a room full of people since he followed that with “That’s just what you need!” Cue some very strange looks from a roomful of people who now thought that I had all the bladder control of a 65-year-old woman. I probably do. But not many people are privy to this this. I’m 22 and it’s not like I want to go round with a big sticker that ...
...a see through bag with Tena Incontinence pads written all over it, I wanted to be able to look my postman in the eye after all (plus his quite cute, and there’s nothing like a bit of early morning flirting to start the day off). But like the pads themselves, they discreetly arrived through the letterbox a short while later. Yes, I suffer from Urinary Incontinence (UI), which means I can’t leave the house without a bag full of pads (until I discovered ...

Review of Bodyform String

One for the Girlies again- Rely on it Always!!

Advantages: Slim, absorbent and discreet
Disadvantages: No wings on this one!

Always Ultra Normal Procter and Gamble Uk What wonderful creatures we are girls, having the luxury of bleeding once a month, or if you are lucky may twice a month if you suffer from irregularity!! There are so many products out there, but everytime it has to be Always for me! I remember at school, in the first year of Secondary school, we had the Talk on growing up, boys in one classroom and girls in the other. OOOOhhhhh the excitement, talking ...
...towel. My Experience Always are ok, however I usually dont like the feeling of dribbling! I prefer the internal absorbency of tampons. However if I'm light I'll use a pad over night. My only quibble with these, is that there are no wings- (different product I hear you cry- and it is!!!) so some times the pad moves and you get blood on your knickers which defeats the whole point! You need to have apair of tightish pants if this pad is not to move. ...
