Have you tried a menstrual cup? They take some getting used to but have a bit more to grab onto when u need to rearrange—and they’re reusable. I’m still struggling with taking mine out without making a huge mess but honestly it’s sort of worth it not having to change a tampon every few hours. BUT if you wanna go back to pads and tampons, I like the L. Organic brand at Target, about evenly priced with other non store brand products and free of like chlorine and bleach and shit.
I haven’t tried a cup yet, no. I got the disposable disks because I wanted to try them before “investing” in the cup (is $40 really an investment at this point compared to expensive tampons? lol), but I feel like the basket(?) part isn’t opening properly because I have to change it just as often as I would change a tampon (every few hours).
