[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DD started her period 3 months ago (11 1/2 at the time). VERY heavy bleeding and cramping....very regular, too. She is also 5'8" and lean, athletic...we struggle with her using adequate protection. She's not ready for tampons but does not want bulky pads, either. The "maxi" thins do not work for her...she bleeds right thru them...any suggestions? [/quote] In what way is she not ready for tampons? I mean, as soon as you get your period aren't you ready for them? I know Playtex makes a line that's easier for younger girls - athletic or something - I can't remember what it's called. My suggestion is to have her use tampons - just try each brand until you find one that she likes best.[/quote] +1[/quote]
