It's personal preference.

Some women prefer using pads, although commercial pads like Always or Kotex may be uncomfortable as they're rough and don't allow air flow so can be uncomfortable when active, cloth pads like Lunapads or underwear with pads built-in like Lunapanties are a lot more comfortable to use when active.

Some women prefer using tampons, although they aren't as bulky as pads so give more freedom when active for many women tampons increase cramps. It is a far better idea to use softcups or menstrual cups, which are also safer and more reliable.

Yes, you can wear tampons during sports as long as your flow is heavy enough for tampon use.

Some people prefer tampons to pads or period underwear, although menstrual cups are better if regularly active as they can be worn with any flow, don't leak like tampons can, and don't increase menstrual cramps as tampons can. Any menstrual product is fine to wear during sports, although if doing water sports such as swimming you can only use internal options like tampons and cups.

Can you use a tampon 2 days after 1 dose monistat treatment?

Don't use tampons if you still have a yeast infection, or any other vaginal infection. Tampons increase risk of vaginal infections, so if you already have an infection or chance of still having an infection, it may increase. It's best for you to use pads and pantiliners for the rest of your period rather than tampons.


Can you use tampons after having PID?

You can use tampons after having PID, but not sure it's the best choice. Tampons are a major cause of vaginal infections which can contribute to PID, it would be a better idea to consider safer options like menstrual cups, softcups, or menstrual pads which don't pose the risk of increased vaginal infections, or in turn higher risk of PID, like tampons.


Should you use Jr Tampons?

There's nothing to say that you should use tampons full-stop, you have other options you can use instead. Jr tampons are light absorbency tampons, only named jr tampons in the US to try to encourage young women to use tampons earlier in order for tampon companies to increase product loyalty early. If you do use tampons you should always use lowest absorbency for your flow, if that means using jr tampons then those are the ones that you will use.
