A question for women

Atomised

Hi,

I promise i'm not a pervy man in secret! Hope this question isn't too personal..

Do you think pantyliners are a waste of money? Do you use them? I'm not sure if British women use them as much as a other nations.

I've never used them. Actually, now you've asked I don't really understand what they're supposed to be for. I mean, if you're menstruating you'd need something a bit more effective, wouldn't you?

I guess they're designed for the natural discharge most women get.

I've not used them, can't be bothered with it. I just change my pants often and wash them :rotfl:

My friend uses them for the "discharge" basically to stop your pants getting dirty... even tho she doesnt wear the same pair more than one day in a row.. I dont understand it either

A small nappy....should be abolished, imo

They are good for beginning & ending of a period when a full sanitary towel is too much. Well at least that's why I use them

I've tried to use them but find them very uncomfortable and annoying so don't bother now.

When I first started my periods, I used them then because I was so small and it was very light.

Nah...a waste of money IMO.

I used them when I was at school but I can't really remember why come to think about it as i had really heavy periods back then

I got sent a g-string one recently :eek: It confused my DH and I couldnt explain the logic either as you certainly wont find me in a g-string if i needed to use something like that

Sorry for TMI

I used to use them, no need to now that I don't have periods - no discharge mid cycle either.

I used to use them all the time as I had a gynae problem resulting in unpredictable bleeding or discharge which would ruin my clothes.
I've had an endometrial ablation now and it's really liberating to not need them any more. I still use them when I'm going to be out of the house all day though as I still can't quite trust my body!
