Sanitary towels

Posted , 5 users are following.

Periods becoming irregular and heavy. Current period 16 days late. One before was 7 days late. Fed up of wearing sanitary towels everyday because can't handle flooding when not expecting it. Anyone have an alternative?

      It's so depressing being in black constantly but it's the only way I feel I'm going to get through this.

    No alternative just support and understanding. I was fine this morning then sudden cramps and boom...flow. Again. None for months then its every other week. I messed up a nice pair of slacks today.

    Back to black...

      Pads everyday is depressing but at least it makes me feel secure about anything happening unexpectedly.
