Hi Topper. But see, this is what I can't figure out about our grandma's era - make your own, but how do you make it so they don't end up leaking through to pants or whatever is between them and the outside world ?

I am a pad user, tampons have always irritated that tender spot. Even with pads and unscented ones at that, I have one tender crotch by the time that week is over. I soak in the tub and give it tlc. I am a large woman too, and am down to one brand that works for me, but even then, on the heavy days I am using 3 pads to cover the territory. lol!

Gee, how I wish RAI had fried my ovaries, but No !!! I remember mom in her mid 50's and still not menopausal. As my daughter said - when her period began, I told her something like we should celebrate or something cuz now she's a woman. She replied - mom, it's gross. True, so true. Periods are not the way I would have designed us women.
