    first got your period?

    I got mines when I was 12. My older sister got hers when she was 13, and my youngest sister got hers when she was 11, so it kinda goes in an order. lol

    also, what brand of pads/tampons do you like to wear? I like Always the most. I don't use tampons though, they're scary. :p

    My sister also got her's when she was 12. I got mines when I was 13.

    For pads, I usually use always. For tampons (swimming) I like tampax.

    I was 12. I cried and cried because I was a competitive swimmer at the time and it meant that I couldn't go to swim practice for a few days. I use O.B. tampons because pads are hassle.

    I agree, they get in the way of things and you have to worry about it too much. Honestly, it's uncomfortable. I just don't know how you gals do it. That's it! I'm 16 and and I say I'm switching! -ann lol

    I remember getting mines at the end of 7th grade. I guess I was around 12-13.

    And I use pads. I'm too careless to use tampons. Too many health issues involved, and I don't want to die young :p

    omg, I feel like a weirdo.

    I didn't get my period until I was 16. My sister had hers when she was 10.

    As for pads, I use stayfree. It doesn't irritate me like kotex or always... and I don't use tampons. Too uncomfortable.

    12 and playtex during day, always at night
    I'm still a bit afraid of the whole toxic shock syndrome thing but a tampon usually doesn't hold for 8 hours anyway so I think I'll be okay.

    12 for me, too... seems like it's the common age for girls these days. for pads, any seems to work fine for me. but i prefer kotex. as for playtex tampons, i only wear them on heavy days.

    I got mine when I was eleven, I use always pads, Tampons are scary, but I'm young and I'll probably find use for them later.

    hmmm... u gotta place the tampons correctly...its gotta be uncomfy or to say painful if u place it wrong... pads are hassle and warm....
    tampons are clean and convenient..but depends on whether u know how to place them correctly :p

    12. Life's been a living hell ever since. >.<

    I use kotex mostly. I use stayfree pantiliner on light days, because they fit well. No tampons for me. Like someone said earlier...they're freaky. lol

    12 when i first got it. in my "younger" days i only used pads coz like everyone i thought tampons were scary. but now in my 20s i use both. tampons came in handy when you are wearing tight pants! esp if you go clubbing! plus it the doctor said i had to try using tampons, since i was too small to even do a pap smear. if you do want to try to start using them, i suggest start using the "smaller" ones such as teens, since the "super" tampons are so fat, that even as a "seasoned" user, it hurts like a b*tch! esp if you don't put it in right!
