Mine are super light (31, no kids). I still change them 5-6 times on heavier days which isn't really needed but I still do it and 3-4 on lighter days.

Diva cup and I only have to change it once a day (in the shower). Totally safe. Been using the Diva Cup for 12 years, not "crunchy" in any other area of my life - best thing ever.

Usually on a heavy day 4-5 times if I'm wearing tampons. More if I'm wearing pads

Ummm, you'd be dead if you only changed your tampon 2x a day.

I use a diva cup now, but before that I was changing tampons every 2-3 hours. And I wore a pantyliner just in case.

Every hour before I got Mirena IUD.

When I was on the pill, I hardly bled. I could easily go 8 hours. Not so after I went off it.

Seriously? Every 8 hours is a MINIMUM, and if I did that, I'd be covered in blood.

On heavy flow days, I was changing supers every 2-3 hours.

So freaking glad I switched to the cup.

I started my period away from home today, and didn't have my cup with me, and I was literally disgusted that I had to use a tampon. I got that shit out of me ASAP,

Depends on the day. Heaviest day, probably 4-5 times.

Or do you just change in the morning and that's it?




I'd be walking around with bloody pants if I only changed 2x a day! On my heaviest days (days 2&3) I change 5 or 6 times, lighter days 3 or 4.
