1. When did you get your period?
14

2.Did you freak out when you got it?
YES! i was expecting it but i was extremly unprepared at the time.

3.Wat is your favorite pad/tampon brand?
Always Infinity Pads. Playtex Sport Tampons.

4. Have you ever leaked?
yes :(

5. What pad/tampon brand do you dislike the most?
Kotex-Pads fall apart too easily, i dont really dislike any tampons....they all kind of feel the same expect for playtex sport.

6. What do you prefer more? pad or tampon?
Pads at night and during the day, tampons for sports, physical activity, swimming etc.

If tampon why??
i dont prefer either. they both have their ups and downs. tampons are cleaner and easier for sports. a downside is they take longer to put in and take out.

if pad why?
like i said i dont prefer either.pads are convenient because its easier to tell when to change them, you can change them more quickly. a downside is that they leak more often.

7.If you use tampons... was it hard to get a tampon in your first time?
nope. went in like a charm.

8.how did you tell your mom or dad or gurdian that you got your period and needed pads or tampon?
i lied to everyone and my mom that i had it because i couldnt stand constant pressure of my mom always asking me all the time if i got it. so i told her yes one day just to shut her up...around 9 months later i got my actual period.

9.did you ever leak in public?
not in public, but around my family and housekeeper....it was embarrassing.

10. do you have a period kit?
Yes i guess. i have a school one with 1 tampon and 1 pad (i add like 2 more of each when i am actually on my period). i have a pad, a tampon and a liner in my purse.

11. rate my quiz
