Should I use a pad or tampon during my period? Which one is better?
You can’t swim with a pad in. One of the best parts about using tampons is that you can swim while on your period with no risk of leaking. When you’re using a pad, however, you really can’t go in the water. Most likely, the adhesive that is connecting your pad to your bathing suit will get dislodged and will make for a total OMG moment.
Pads are easier to use than tampons. … Almost no risk of toxic shock syndrome (TTS): There is almost no risk of developing TTS when using menstrual pads. Studies show that the risk of developing TSS is lower in women who use menstrual pads, than in women who use tampons.
