Yup. Pads for life. Also, size 5 overnight. I don’t care what yall say, i feel secure with pads than tampons/cups lol!!!

I'm sticking with pads cuz I can't imagine fitting such a big think a such a small place Edit (omg thank uuuu guys for so many likes love uu)

Personally I can't stand the idea of putting something inside of my vagina so I prefer pads 💀 but this is a tutorial video MEANT for those who WANT to use tampons/menstrual cups. If you're not one of them just scroll through! why "ew I'm never gonna use that" like we're not forcing you to 💀

No shame for pad users. No shame for tampon users. No shame for menstrual cup users. As long as everyone is staying healthy and have access to what suits them best.

This looks so painful- I’m sticking with pads.

This is exactly the tutorial I wanted.. And I'm sticking with pads.

I really wanna switch to cups I hate the wet feeling of pad and it’s uncomfortable at times but damn I am scared of inserting a cup into my body🤷‍♀️I don’t have enough guts yet

Im allergic to pads and tampons, so menstrual cups are absolute life savers! They never leak, never smell, never are visible, so much better for the environment, and so much more cost efficient.

Wow, as a pad user and a virgin, that menstrual cup looks crazy. 😅

Everybody is like "pads > everything" Me who does swim training and dance :....

Me when she pushed that tampoon: ohhhhh hell nawwwww👁️👄👁️💀💀

I love that other alternatives are being made. I have a permanent rip/cut down there from the plastic teeth of the tampon and it's in such a delicate and sensitive area, that it took FOREVER to heal. And sometimes unfortunately it rips/tears back open again and really hurts. So I'm happy that alternatives are being made so that I don't have to keep using plastic tampons when there is nothing else. (I have been sticking to ones that come in cardboard or pads since that incident. I like those ones way more)

Pads are the best. No pain , super comfortable.

I am so so happy with my Sofy/Stayfree/Whisper... I don't need this thank you😂😂

THIS SCARED THE LIFE OUTTA ME 😭😭😭I AM STICKING WITH MY PADS

Honestly the cup saved my life, idk if there's an mental thing going on but i cant STAND knowing and /feeling/ that im on my period, I used a cup and only have to deal with it 1-2 times per days and I never felt wet ever again. God, I'm really glad it exists, it takes a while to get it right but when you do? It's amazing

i can’t believe KZfaq makes you censor silicone in a medical setting…

As someone who only used pads until last year bc tampons hurt, menstrual cups are amazing and way better compared to pads and tampons! It's not as hard to use as it looks and you can't feel it inside. You also don't have to take it out as often, it minimizes waste, and it definitely won't feel like you're wearing a wet diaper like pads do 😂 menstrual cups rly made me feel like I was actually living in the modern world

Whatever works for you, works for you. As long as it’s unscented, you’re using it as instructions read and change it when it needs to be changed to avoid TSS and yeast infections. I’ve used pads, tampons and period cups. Will admit I stopped using the period cup after the first use but gave it another shot a month back and really liked it. Was also at the beach and didn’t want to deal with seawater being soaked up by a cotton menstrual product. I didn’t have leakage, didn’t feel it there and didn’t feel rushed to change a soggy pad or red-stringed tampon. Didn’t have to use lube as period blood and other…vaginal wetness made it easy to slip in. Takes a bit to get used to putting it in and taking it out and don’t think I’d ever be able to clean it in a public toilet-so that end I’d go tampon or pad. But some have more sensitive nethers or trauma where a menstrual cup would not work. That’s fine, it’s what worked for me. But it’s great to have options! To accommodate your lifestyle and flow! Really hate when people insult those who use pads making them out to be dirty, when it’s what works for them. It’s great to talk about our own experiences, what works so that the industry can improve menstrual products but not when it’s just hating on a product as if it shouldn’t exist when it does work for some. It’s all about your comfort level and how you want to deal with your period-tampon, pad, period panties, cloth pads, cups or whatever.

For people who are scared. Tampons can be scary at first but they aren’t bad at all. I first used one when I was 11. It might just feel weird at first tho. Just don’t put it in to deep or no deep enough. And make sure your flow is heavier because if it’s not heavy enough it’s going to hurt. And tampons are great for the night time! That way you don’t leak as easily.

literally can't with all of them, I rather used the pad :')

As a girl that leaks every time she's on her period when using a pad, the cup was life changing. Tampons were always uncomfortable and the cup was much better. You do you, but I will say don't write it out just yet, it took me years to finally want to try one and I'm never looking back. If your reasons are that you are scared, I will say that it's your own body and it's always an upside to know how your body works. As long as your hands and the cup is clean, you won't hurt anything. (Though I will be more careful if you have long nails)

Off topic, but few things are as romantic as changing my wife’s tampon for her, putting a warm steaming cloth on her lower abdomen, bringing her Midol and tea and rubbing her back, while she hurts through this process. It’s gotten to the point that she almost looks forward to her (seriously painful) periods, as I pamper and take care of her so thoroughly. Sweet girl never even has to get out of bed.

I love that we live in an age that there are choices for women. Pads. Tampons. Menstrual Cups. You get to choose what's right for YOUR body.

menstrual cups are a GAME CHANGER. it is a bit uncomfortable the first time you have it in but once you get used to it, you won’t even feel it’s there

i wore pads growing up bc i thought there were no other options bc no one taught me otherwise and now i use a cup and i haven’t bought pads in like 4 years lol

I’m a tampon person. Pads smell awful and they show sometimes and my flow is too heavy so it either looks weird or doesn’t work. They also stick to me cause the adhesive sucks so super uncomfy :( but personally I do a tampon and a panty liner.

why do we even have to suffer through this 😭

KZfaq is so crazy, we really have to censor silicone? 😅 I am Not the biggest fan of Cups but they are a really good alternative to Tampons :)

Menstrual cups are must use. I was so freaking scared at first with the process and all, but trust me, I've started using it and never going back to any other product. Its NOT AT ALL PAINFUL. Rather, just put it in the morning and forget about your period for 7-8 hours. Furthermore, unlike pads, it doesn't make you run to toilet so often, neither does it make you feel uncomfortable around the area.

“I’m sticking with pads 🤓🤓” Then go swimming

This is only my opinion as I read comments here. Some people are just so close minded. If you are pads, cups, tampon user, you do whatever you want to your body / use to your body. It is actually my FIRST time using menstrual cups today. regret ? NOT AT ALL. I am so happy not using pads right now. Finally I don't need to change pads every two hours. Being uncomfortable everytime I need to go to the restroom. Hate getting rashes from it ( any brand) Specially, hate buying it whenever I needed it. At first, I was scared, I AM 21 year old and a virgin. Never even tried inserting anything even my finger on it. But I was so motivated to change my life and to get rid of pads. I was motivated to get rid of those pads waste. I bought my first cup ( watch any possible videos again and again) Tried it without my period and FAILED TO INSERT for 3 days. I wonder what is wrong, so I explore my body. Then one night, I did it, I was so happy to finally insert it for the first time. So I waited for this day. Using cups for my period and this is the best decision. Fr ! Educate ourselves before saying anything. We don't need to be against each other. It takes time to know our body ! *It makes me more motivated when I see comments about girls younger than me trying cups already and I was like, if they can, I can do it too. Just listen to other women first before you judge them by using menstrual cups. :)

I am so scared of putting anything like that inside myself😳. I mean what if I couldn't ever get it out, I choose to stick with napkins.

It’s really not painful to use either. Personally, even taking a dry tampon out has never hurt me. I’ve never gotten any pain at all from period products. The vagina is a lot more elastic then people think. It’s 100% okay to use pads and I’m not shaming anyone, but if you’re only using pads out of fear, I’d encourage you to just try. If it is painful then don’t do it again, but there’s no harm in tryibg

Love menstrual cups been using it for a year best decision ever lol

Can we have an uncensored version? Having periods are normal i cant really see the menstrual cup going in uncensored version please :)

I don't use both of these i always use pads ,it look painful inserting those things

For heavy bleeders like myself its not always the best to wear pads since literally IT will go everywhere and tampons suction everything even then sometimes panty liners help cups might work but what if your in a public restroom and need to drain it? Or clean it? Menstrual periods suck overall

Thanks for making me never want to use a cup or tampon ever😊

This hurts me on many level.. I'm forever in love with pads

Yyyyeeeeaaahh---no thanks,I'm sticking to pads.

To all those who feel like menstrual cups are scary. I can understand your fears. I mean it's a personal choice at the end of the day. If you want to switch I can tell you how to make it work so that it doesn't hurt as bad. But you need to choose for yourself . We don't judge pad users here, use what you feel is good for your body. I've just started using cups and I'm not going back to pads or tampons ever again. So cups work wonders just that you need to be patient with them and accept the learning curve❤️✨ EDIT: Since this is getting so many likes lemme tell yall that I'm 16 rn so there is no age limit to using the cup every menstruating woman can use it. You just need to research a bit more and be patient with your body if you are younger. That's all😄

Pads are the best thing cuz it doesn't hurt

the tampon coming out dry i simply CANNOT that was painful to watch but tysm for educating others

Best one.. if we practiced with cup.. we never go back to pads anymore.. I'm using cup after my delivery, if girls worried about hymen tears you can start using it after marriage or delivery.. it took three cycles to become an experienced in using menstrual cup, but I love it.. on period days also I will be like very normal as I don't have any discomfort except the tiredness and slight back pain.. give it a patient try ladies

to everyone in the comments: tampons are a great product and (using the right size for me) has never hurt or given me trouble. this video makes them seem scary but i swear they are way more comfortable than meets the eye

Oh hell no I’m terrified of using tampons idk why and the period cup thing I never knew you stick it up there😭💀😳 Pads are the best and safest option

I feel so so comfortable to see that many people do like pads like me. 😁

When I first purchased a menstrual cup, I stored it in the bathroom and practised inserting it every time I ✨used✨ the bathroom 🤓

Haha I just switched to tampons. I personally like them more than pads but I understand why people like pads more! They’re just easier, and can feel less uncomfortable than tampons. But if you want to try tampons, watch a few tutorials and don’t be scared, if you don’t like them then that’s fine, it’s not weird or anything, whatever works for you is the right thing to do :)

OK I don’t know why people completely forgot about pads Is there something called toxic shock it’s pretty much where you put tampon in and it holds up your period flow then the only place you can go is up so the period keeps throwing up and you can get an infection or you could feel extremely nauseous and you can die from it which is why you don’t wear tampons all the time it’s healthy to wear them for a few hours but if you have a heavy flow, you should probably be wearing padded underwear with a pad not tampons. Tampons are supposed to be used for sports like if you are swimming and you’re on your period

all the people in the comments saying they’d never use a tampon and wondering why anyone would, sports yall, no one wants to run/play/swim in a huge ass pad

Everyone talking about only using pads: Me, with very heavy flow ._.

I have been using menstrual cups since I was fourteen years old and it's a life changer for me. No more changing pad once in a few hours. It's really hygienic too and more healthy than tampons or pads.

I got my period a few years ago and during that time I only used pads and occasionally tampons because I felt self conscious about wearing pads in public since I have a heavy flow and have to wear more absorbent pads. Tampons do not hurt, only when you are dry down there it hurts once you take it out but by the time you're dry, your period should be light already. Only last month I started using menstrual cups because I was forced to wear them at a camp since I had no tampons or pads around and I didn't wanna ask anyone and now it's really been great. I still haven't gotten my period yet but I'm looking forward to using them since it's eco friendly and it holds my flow! When I used tampons and pads I had to change them every 2-4 hours. I still wear pads at night though (:

I prefer pad....those looks hellish😰

I am happy with my sanitary napkins 🙃✨

Yeah Uhmm this almost made me wanna cry bc that looked painful asf I’m using pads for the rest of my life.

Thanks it really helped me a lot

I'm super happy with sofy 🥺🥺

For the pad ladies .... Cut the wings into half before taking of the paper.... So instead of 2 wings you now have 4 ... Pad stays in place bettee Edit: looking at how many people r noticing my comment ... I wanted to tell you guys that I actually emailed a pad company to get them to do that to their pads so The solution my my problem could become a solution to someone else's. But didn't get a reply back.

Just want to say thank you. I bought a cup years ago but had a hard time getting it to open, and so didn’t use it. Your videos gave me some good ideas to problem solve. (I was folding it wrong) and now I use a mix of my cup and reusable period underwear. My period just feels a little easier to deal with. Thank you.

i'm sticking with my mom's pads because- ouch. i'll cry if i use a tampon. it seems like it's so.. painful😭

I don’t get my period anymore, but honestly, cups are really comfortable, re-usable, and way to sanitize. You can wear cups for up to twelve hours, and were great for sleeping in overnight. I did have to take them out in the shower, but if you’re sleeping then you can take it out in the morning, or when you get home from work.

I should just stay with my pad

I like the cup its so comfortable and there is no smell like pads and tampons sometimes do there smaller sizes also its also reusable ive saved so much money not having to buy pads and tampons.

I accept everyone that uses these cups or tampons, but I am scared as heck that one day I’ll have to fish the tampon out bc the string ripped off 😂 that’s why I’ll stay with pads till I feel comfortable with tampons/cups

I used to wear pads all the time now I tried a tampon out and it was amazing. I barely even felt it in there lol

There’s no way I’m sticking anything up there... :) I’ll stick w a pad ✋✋

For me, at first I'm afraid to use menstrual cup 'cause it looks painful and I'm a virgin but!... Wearing it doesn't mean your virginity will gone, you just need to look for the right types and size for you and know the proper way to use it (so it will not feel uncomfortable or pain,and it's a silicon so...). I'm a swimmer so I need it, wearing pads when I swim is... A bad thing for me and I got rashes whatever brand pads I use so, this is for me

These comments need to learn more about how menstrual cups work. It is only as big as a expanded tampon no its not painful you don't feel it once it's in place, you fold it and can make it only a few centimeters in thickness. It's okay if you don't wanna use one but don't spread misinformation based on your own preferences

you guys, human skin isn't silicone and tampons aren't painful to use at all. pads are literal warm bed of bacteria especially during summertime.

pads for first two or three days then switch to reusable extra absorb panties. It's not totally environment friendly but it helps atleast reduce few plus less chances of rashes.

I can’t shove my hand up there when I’m leaking alien fluids

I like that the end image is blurred but the insertion is not 😂😂

To everyone freaking out: Tampons are painfull as hell compared to cups since they are made of cotton. The texture can hurt. I cant use tampon daily becauae of that. I have to give it a break with pads. Finally got enough courage to try menstrual cups a couple months ago. BEST DECISION OF MY LIFE. I completely forget that I am on my period untill it is time to empty it. Leak proof (if put in correctly), almost no chance of toxic shock syndrome and you only have to empty it once every 12 hours. About TSS: Tampons posses the risk because they are cotton. They cause tiny tears in your vaginal canal and when the blood gets bad it can go into your blood stream and poison from there. Since cups are silicon and therefore smooth, also contains the blood in it rather than around it, the chances of getting tss is very very minimal.

I switched to the Period Cup it is a lot easier I know it can be scary but they are comfortable 😅🙏🏻 Just make sure to follow cleaning instructions afterwards ❤️🙏🏻

I'm a dude and I watch these cause it's important to know what women got going on down there. Knowledge is power

Well I tried tampons for the first time and it wasn’t bad at all, it did feel a bit uncomfortable but as I kept trying it felt as if the tampon wasn’t even there and it dosent leak :) I mean pads are really not my thing because they just get way to messy and uncomfortable at night but I mean that’s just me 🤷‍♀️

I love how this video has put off like a thousand people from using these products! Literally. I use tampons, and honestly they are fine once you get used to them.

I am waiting for the day i can buy menstrual cup. Using pads make me feel so so dirty, also the rashes and leakage, can't even move freely or do regular things because they Always Always move no matter how much you try. Can't even lie on my back because of leakage. They make me feel even worse than period pain. Kudos to people who are comfortable in pads.

never put this inside me in future the pads are the best thing for the period for me not for all people but it’s not painful and the woman don’t think all times if she lose the tampon or the cup inside her it’s soo painful to watch how take it out

Watching this wearing a pad rn

looking at all of these comments made me realize that so many people don’t know much about how the vagina is structured 😭

Menstrual cup are the best, sometime I just forgot I'm in my period, while I'm wearing it. And menstrual cups don't give me the rash that pads always gave me (I used to wear the thinnest pad, so I can change like 4-5 times per day).

I’ve tried tampons and I’m never using them again after finding out the hard way that I was born with two hymens and I had to go half of the day uncomfortably with the same tampon in cause just touching it made it feel like I was dying, so that was a fun experience 😀

How exactly do menstrual cups work though? Like does it hold your blood like a cup that holds water and you have to dump it out? I feel like that would be a bit difficult and possibly messy

My mom used to be a nurse, and she LOVED talking about the subject of how many tampon horror stories she had. Still petrified, and will forever be a pad user.

It took me 3 years of hearing about menstrual cups to finally take the leap of faith. After using pads my whole life and learning from your videos and putacupinit, I can happily say that my life has been changed for the better! :) I still use pads, but now I can choose to go swimming on my period or wear cute tight pants without showing any lines. Thanks for continuing to teach us!

bro i have to stick something up there!?

I don't get it why people fear using menstrual cups before using it.... Because once they get comfortable they would never go back to pads....

Damn I'm so Sceaird to use this stuffs for my day

as someone who uses tampons i can agree that the pain of taking out a dry tampon is unbearable but i still rather that than sitting in my puddle of blood

Dear girls don't risk yourself.just be safe and comfortable with Pads

For y’all saying “i’m sticking with pads,” how do y’all go swimming in your period? Also do pads not feel so squelchy and uncomfortable to you? I forget i’m even on my period with a cup, I can’t even feel it, and only change it twice a day.

Still pads 😭❤️

I'm sorry I'm just so scared to do this like I haven't ever put something up my hole before so I'm scared everything would go wrong . The anxiety would kill me. I'll Stick to pads thank you🖐️👌

Imma die if i use that thing 💀

Pads for life

I’m fine with pads…
