I’m old. And yet I don’t understand how a pad is any more “gross” than removing and emptying a cup of bloody uterine lining. isn’t that just as messy? I think both are kinda gross. Tampon for the win. At least it absorbs while inside.


Oh gosh a pad is so much more gross than a cup, I’ve used both.

Once you are adept with the cup you only touch it to get it in and out. You can “empty it” hands free every time you go to the bathroom. I’ve never used a tampon so I can’t compare but the cup made my period so much less gross.


+1 I hate how pads and tampons mean you are throwing smelly blood cotton/whatever material in the trash (or hurting your plumbing by flushing it). I am fine with a little blood touching my hands. It washes off. The pads and tampons stink up the bathroom.


"The pads and tampons stink up the bathroom"

No they don't. Are you changing them enough? If so they won't stick. Also take your trash out gross.


I don't use them anymore, thank God. Glad the smell doesn't bother you!


There is no smell.

You might want to get that checked out!


I don't know why you are arguing with me about something that is easily googleable. Is everything okay with you?


NP google what? My pads do not stink neither does my tampons. I change them often and empty my bathroom trash every 5 days or so there is no smell and my bathroom trash doesn't have a lid. No smell. Girl go get checked.


Why do you think they make scented pads??

Well that would explain some of why your menstrual products stink if you are using any scented products there. Not good for your PH.

I'm the PP who doesn't like the smell of used tampons and pads in the trash. I didn't use scented products for a variety of reasons. The smell still bothered me. It wasn't foul, it was kind of earthy and sweet. I didn't like it. I am relatively sensitive to smells.

Never use scented products there, don't use anything with dye or coloring either.

For the same reason they have bright color wrappers and patterns on the boxes. Hint: its not for smell.


Do you have a dog? I dare you to leave your odor free used feminine products in your bathroom wastebasket.

Eh I am sure just like people vary their sense of smell and also maybe theirs truly doesn't smell much. Could also be some variation in air circulation in the bathroom. I also find that sometimes trash cans with lids retain smells more than those without lids. What is odd is insisting anyone who is bothered by the smell must have an infection or health issue.

Period fluid is only half blood. The rest of it could have a big effect on the final smell based on people's individual health, ph, body chemistry, hydration, etc.
