What are the pros and cons of tampons

In China, sanitary napkins are the most commonly used products among female friends during menstruation, but not many people choose tampons. Therefore, tampons are not widely used in our country, and most people do not know much about this product. In fact, tampons are very widely used in European and American countries, so tampons are relatively convenient. Therefore, many people now want to understand the pros and cons of tampons more clearly.

What are the pros and cons of tampons? Not only are they easy to insert, but they also don’t cause inconvenience like using sanitary napkins. Let’s take a look at the following nine points.

Benefits of tampons

1. First of all, tampons are easier to insert than you think

Inexperienced users may need to try a few more times, but once you successfully find the entrance to the vagina and the correct insertion angle, the tampon can actually slide in easily and is not as painful as you might imagine. In addition, each brand of tampon comes with an instruction manual (some even have pictures or teaching models!) to teach you how to find the correct angle and insertion depth. If it is your first time using it, it is recommended that you try it in front of a mirror to help reduce your nervousness.

2. Get rid of heat, humidity, rashes, and odors!

Because menstrual blood is absorbed by the tampon before it is discharged from the body and causes unpleasant odor, using tampons can not only keep private parts dry and comfortable, but also avoid the odor of menstrual blood after contact with the air! If you want a further sense of freshness, there are currently many foreign brands launching scented tampons, so that you can also emit a charming fragrance during your period. It is important to note that you must replace the tampon with a new one within four to eight hours (depending on the amount of flow. If you are at school, work, or playing in the water at the beach for a whole day, it is about eight hours! Don't exceed it). This is the correct way to use it cleanly and healthily!

3. You can play lying down, sitting down, or lying on your stomach. No matter how big the movements are, you don’t have to worry!

Have you ever planned a trip with friends but couldn't do water activities because you were on your period? Have you ever had the embarrassing situation of menstrual blood staining your clothes because of your big movements? Or are you afraid to wear light-colored pants because of your period? Dear, tampons are definitely the best companion to help you avoid the above embarrassment. No matter how exaggerated your movements are, it will stay inside your body without moving around, allowing you to confidently go through your menstrual period without having to walk around for fear of leaking out!

Next, let’s see, can you go to the toilet without taking out the tampon?

4. With the tampon inside, you can take a shower or go to the toilet!

Many girls are confused: Can I go to the toilet after using a tampon? The answer is, of course! Due to different flow rates, the tampon needs to be replaced after about four to eight hours of use (be sure to remember to replace it!). If you want to go to the toilet during this period, just be careful not to dirty the string on the tampon, and you don’t need to take out the tampon! Therefore, there is no need to change the tampon every time you take a shower or go to the toilet. Isn’t it convenient?

5. No matter how much traffic you have, you can sleep soundly until dawn.

Have you ever used a large sanitary napkin (40cm can basically cover your entire butt!) when sleeping at night, but still got the sheets dirty when you turned over? Although sanitary napkins have wings to help fix them, they may still move around during sleep and cause displacement and leakage. In fact, tampons, like sanitary napkins, are available in different sizes. Various brands have night-time tampons to choose from. Once you switch to tampons, you can greatly reduce the chance of soiling the sheets (basically, if used correctly, they will not be soiled at all), and you can sleep dry and at ease at night, and sleep soundly until dawn!

6. Learn more about your body

Many girls have only seen the appearance of the vagina in health textbooks in middle school and do not seem to know much about their own body structure, as if their private parts are a mysterious forbidden area. Using tampons can help girls get to know themselves better, and then learn to cherish and love themselves more!

7. Lightweight and convenient, no burden in your bag

When menstruation comes, if you want to go out, you have to carry several sanitary napkins with you. Do you often carry a small bag to put the tampons? Or do you have to take the whole bag with you when you go to the toilet to avoid the embarrassment caused by taking out the tampons? Or even, have you ever forgotten the small bag of tampons in the toilet? Tampons can solve your troubles, because tampons are very small and light, not only can they reduce the burden on the bag, but when you go to the toilet, you only need to put one in your pocket or hold it in your hand, and you don’t have to worry about being seen by others!

8. Tampons are not as expensive as you think!

Do you want to try tampons but are afraid of the increased costs? In fact, the cost of using tampons or sanitary napkins during a menstrual cycle is about the same. The factor that determines how much you spend is actually the brand! Generally speaking, sanitary napkins need to be replaced more frequently than tampons, which may be the reason for the higher costs for sanitary napkin users. In addition, when the flow is low, it is difficult to insert the tampon because the vagina is not moist enough. Therefore, it is best to buy a sanitary napkin with a low flow rate to use when the menstrual period is about to end. In addition, sanitary napkins and tampons also need to be purchased in different sizes. In the long run, using tampons will not increase your expenses!

9. Forget that you are on your menstrual period and regain your cheerful smile as a woman!

Dear, when there is no longer something between your legs reminding you of your menstrual period, when the discomfort is reduced, and the accidental staining of clothes and sheets is reduced, the emotional ups and downs during your menstrual period will also decrease. Especially if you tend to feel depressed and irritable during your menstrual period, try using tampons! You will find that your smile will be more dazzling and moving, and you may even forget that you are experiencing your menstrual period.

shortcoming:

I feel nervous when inserting and pulling it out, and I am always worried about wetting the rope when I pee. The current mainstream brand is still OB, but I feel it will aggravate dysmenorrhea. The first time I used it, the foreign body sensation was very obvious and I could hardly walk. But once I got used to it, it felt like it didn't exist at all. I felt completely unrestrained and super comfortable.

The above content is a detailed introduction to the advantages and disadvantages of tampons. I believe that now everyone should have a clear understanding and knowledge of the pros and cons of tampons. Everything has its pros and cons. For many female friends, choosing a suitable and comfortable product is the most important thing.
