Period and school

This isnt my first period but my first period at school kinda scared :s Would it be better to wear a skirt or trouses// I think skirt cause when you bend over the pad wont show like a nappy// ? Help

Answer #1

When I was 13 (only 10 years ago- things shouldn’t have changed THAT much), my doctor told me to not use tampons until I had established what kind of absorbancy I needed. That prevents leaks or discomfort associated with larger tampons and smaller bodies. It’s not medically necessary, but it gave me some peace of mind.

I’ve never ever seen anybody with a ‘pad line’. Ever. Even when I’ve worn the super heavy, ultra-oh-my-God-I’m-hemmorhaging-to-death, pads, nobody has been able to tell.

However, with skirts, I’VE been able to hear rustling on occasion, which is mortifying. It’s doubtful anybody else heard, but I knew what it was, and that was embarrassing enough. Maybe you want to take that into consideration.

I would wear the pants unless they are khaki (leaks and stains…) or really tight in the bottom region. Also, you may want to bring a change of undies and pants just in case. Sometimes sweaters draped around your waist can hint at what you’re hiding.

Answer #2

I know you’ve probably gone to school now but I’d wear trousers that way if it did somehow leak it wouldn’t be noticeable and you could quickly go wash it off. And also if you have wings on the pad it wouldn’t be noticeable when you sit down.

Answer #3

either doesnt matter! I have a uniform and just wear my skirt btw we can wear pants aswell like but hey its england every school in england has I uniform I think lol. It doesnt matter either way jeans are good if you dont have uniform. But dont wear mini skirt if you do wear skirts! :)

Answer #4

as uncomfertable as it may sound, you should try to wear tampons, and then a tiny liner in your underwear. wear black pants or skirt so if you happen to bleed through people wont notice.
