[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm in my 40s, had 4 pregnancies, with very heavy periods, and have NEVER felt comfortable with tampons. I've never worn them beyond trying unsuccessfully, and I am not bothered by missing swimming, or other sports or activities because of this. I think one's sense of inner comfort - literally! - is much more important than a mere sport. I am perfectly fine with my daughter missing sports when the time comes, if she has a similar experience. She's athletic enough, and we're not on the "sports for college admissions" bandwagon. If she can still practice with period underwear, great. But I suspect nothing works for very heavy period days. At least, that's been my experience.

Ok, but missing a week of sports every month just because of your period is totally unnecessary, and if you are part of a team, not fair to others.  I don’t know anyone that refuses to get in the water on their period.  Don’t you take your 4 kids to the pool or beach and get in the water with them? [/quote]
