Just wondering if any of you girls believe in whering panty liners when your not on your period. Scented, non scented..lol thaught of this when reading the menstral cup topic for some reason. Oh and I think this is wrong, but some people don't even where underwhere most of the time, let's be honest do you where them and if so do you use liners?
I do not wear them.
i used to wear liners on a daily basis., but lets face it, it gets costly buying them all the time.
What are they for? I've actually seen them advertized on tv but have no idea.
light periods
or just to protect your underwhere from..discharge i guess and to smell good lol...there not very costly if u just get a bunch at the dollar store..
Ug no thank you. I'me one of the girls who hates wearing underware but there is reason for that, but I hate how they always seem to bunch up and crumple and it makes me feel like there is something in my underware that shouldn't be there.
i think panty liners are pethetic, did it for a while and well yeah, and as for not wearing underware oh my i have to always wear underware always can live without a bra but not underware
I use them. I don't know ... I just always feel better knowing something's there just in case. And they come in handy when my period's a nasty surprise, since even after almost two years of having it, I'm not completely regular. Not fair, I know, but c'est la vie, I suppose.
Well, i see the point of wairing them, but, some girls don't i guess. Though, i have no idea how you could ever go with undies far out no. lol No matter how tiny they are, i always have to wair them, same with a bra.
Don't use them. I have a friend who does, and thought she was weird for using them. My periods are always light, though, so I never had a problem.
i do not use them anymore because i would always break out from them. probably from all of the crap added to them during the manufacturing process.
Yeh, i've herd alot of girls have that kinda problem, i mean, i used them sometimes when i was in school, but, never again.
yep same here. no way! i hate breaking out from them.
and, lets face it, it's only a bit of dis charge and, it's usually clear, so, no one is going to see it. And, if your on the pill, you don't need to stress, coz, you no when there coming anyway. I just think there a waste of money.
Ew'w'w no! I always use panty liners or tena ladies. You see, as well as the discharge and periods, I also have stress incontinence, so I wear underwear all the time as well. I couldn't imagine doing anything else, lmfao.

As a pain sufferer iw shy I choose not to sometimes. To women who wuffer pain of the vulvar area it is suggested if you do wear underware cotton is the best to wear prefferabally boy shorts, and if you can get away with it none at all. Also not tight pants, and when washed put through a gental detergant and not put in with dryer sheets. I've also found this in an article about general vulvar care. That's my two scents about why i'm ok with no panties. Oviously if I'll be going somewhere where I know I'll be sweating allot or I know it's a time of the month where my discharge is heavy I ware them, but other than that.... the feeling of freedom is nice anyway.
Most of the time I don't wear underwear at all. When I do it's to help with wearing panty liners or pads...Haven't baughten a cup yet. I don't wear them because the more often I wear them the more often I get yeast infections. At one point I'd just get over an infection and be back into the doc's getting more meds cause I had another one...So, instead I simply don't wear underwear and I'm able to dry without the underwear holding moisture next to my skin. I also wear loose pants/shorts so its not like anything is soking into my clothes; or no more than it would be for any other woman who chooses not to wear underwear. And now I typically only get the infections when on antibiotics...Been like 6 months!!! Also, thanks for the idea about panty liners around period time...I would rather wear a panty liner as opposed to a pad considering my period is still fairly irregular; though it seems to be evening out...Until it does I've got to figure out a backup plan so I don't have a repeat of Monday!!! Now, that could have been embarrassing!!! Also, $1.00 for 28 panty liners at Wal-Mart...I get the Equate brand for now because they have the cotton like cover, are unscented and a reasonable price!
i would like to give a suggestion about the yeast infections. i was told this by a doctor. i went in for repeated really bad yeast infections that were not cured by the meds, or if they were cured, they would come back a few days later. what you need to do is get a probiotic called acidophalis, please excuse the spelling. it really works. u take 1 or 2 tablets a day even when the infection is gone. so ever since then, i have been yeast infection and urinary tract infection free. it has been a bit over a year now. i took the acidophalis for about a month and never had any more problems.
And an herb called Vitex will regulate cycles. You shouldn't have to take it forever, it usually works in 3-6 months. (I posted this elsewhere, but it's clearly more on topic in this thread. LOL)
ooooh sweet! vitex is it's name?
Wow! Interesting topic girls! Well to answer the liner question, I agree they're good to use just before your period and also when it's tapering off. I also wear them at night. I wouldn't wear them everyday, but they do help prevent yucky leaks on your clothes. I've only had a couple of these. They're also good when you're traveling long distances, cause you can change them, and feel a bit more clean. Just my oppinion though, I know everyone's different.
I wear them just before, and at the end of a period. also, sometimes during the ovulation period, we seem to get bad discharge, so I may wear them occasionally then.
i don't see the point in pantty liners because i have light periods anyway. and they're costly.
Costly? Out of curiosity, what do you use? I buy the cheapest pads and panty liners that Wal-Mart offers and that I can use; happens to actually be damn near the cheapest if not the cheapest, and I'll pay any day $2.00 for 48 as opposed to $3.50 for 24...Average prices, not exacts, but damn close.
Underwear, no liners unless my period's beginning or ending.
I wear liners every day, but not scented ones, I don't want to smell like baby powder down there, thanks. But they do help me feel clean. I can't stand the way my underwear feel when I don't wear them, but that's probably because I'm used to them. And anyways, some girls have more discharge than others, so some of us need to wear them.
I do wear underwear but I do not wear panty liners. I personally think they feel a little weird and uncomfortable and I much rather pprefer wearing my tampons. Just my two-sense.
I use the liners while on my time but I also use tampons.I use both so I don't get a stain if for some reason i leak. Mainly use the liner if I am going out.
Well, in spite of the fact that my grandma insists on me wearing them, I dont like them. so i try not to buy them if I can help it!
hate wearing underware so no liners for me.
I have an irregular period and even then, I hate when discharge gets on my underwear, so I used to use thin pads. Recently though, I finally did buy some liners, but they don't help much because even though I put them on correctly, the discharge still gets on the underwear. So, instead, I use a thickly folded up paper towel (like the ones you would find in a restoraunt/store restroom. Not only does that save me spending money on pads only used to catch the discharge, but They work a lot better for me and unlike what I'd first thought, they do stay in place even while I'm moving around.
No pantie liners for me, ever.
But scented ones? are you serious? My vagina smells absolutely perfect the way it is, and I'd like to keep it that way. Also, scented pantie liners, vaginal douches, and scented pads/tampons are definitely harmful, especially in such a sensitive area of your body.
Why would someone not wear underwear? I mean, barring alergies and naturists... I use a Mooncup UK (best one ever) and don't wear panty liners at all. But for those who want to and who want to not have to deal with chemicals, there are cloth ones as well as organic disposables available.
I just can't get my head around scented ones!! believe me ladies, your vagina smells exactly as it should: just like a vagina. And yes, menstrual cups are wonderful.
I don't ware underware offten because it is suggested to girls with vvs not to in order to let the vagina breathe and not be too close to anything. I have mostly continued the use of underware since i've stopped wearing Genes. The pain is still there but it's not as bad.
I used to whear liners every day, but i notice that after whearing them every day, i sometimes get irritated. in fact if you whear liners, you are not letting such a sensitive part of your body breath which can cause infections. in that note, i whear them occasionally. especially if my period tapers off which used to occure between the forth and fifth day, but now i where it with no problems on the third day of my period. and nothing the next day. so my periods has lessened from when it used to be 5 days to now 2 or 3 days.
thanks.
also, after taking priscription migrain meds, i haven't had any cramps nr other discomfort except abdominal tention
.
i wish i wasn't so freeking irregular. i get my period every 2 months like for example, on december i got it and now it february i haven't had a period. why is this?
Hmm. You might want to get that checked out. That's not normal. Sometimes, that will happen if you're overly stressed, however, but still...
