Failed Attempt on Tampons

MooMoo have never used tampons before but have been hearing stories on it, whether good or bad.  MooMoo is going for a long 3 weeks trip soon and it definitely would hit the dates.  MooMoo was thinking of either taking medication to delay it or to opt to use tampons.

Therefore, MooMoo decided to try on the tampons option because if take medication, it would be for quite a period.  MooMoo went to check out different types of tampons available in the market.  It is really amazing as there are quite a number of variations.  There were some which comes with cardboard applicator and some with plastic applicator.

After going through a few brands, MooMoo decided to buy Playtex, the one with the plastic applicator and it says it comes with 360 degree protection.  Hahaha!

MooMoo tell you it's really not easy to put in a tampon.  After trying it out, MooMoo decided this is not a good choice for her.  There's so many things to take note and the trouble of putting it in and pulling it out.  =.=!!!  You must make sure you do not sleep with a tampon if you are sleeping for more than 8 hours, else you have the risk of getting "Toxic Shock Syndrome" (TSS).

MooMoo do have some friends who loves to use tampons as they can go exercise freely and even go swimming with it.  You just gotta have some skill putting it at the right spot to feel comfortable.  Well, at least, MooMoo have tried... just too bad, not a good choice for MooMoo.  Else, with tampon she can go for her Balance and Pilates even during her heavy flow.  :p

Say Bubye to Tampons and Hello to Pads!!!  Gotta give away the remaining box of tampons.

* A Joke on Tampons.... just for LAUGHS...  ^=^

A man walks into a pharmacy and wanders up and down the aisles. The sales girl notices him and asks him if she can help him. He answers that he is looking for a box of tampons for his wife.  She directs him down the correct aisle. A few minutes later, he deposits a huge bag of cotton balls and a ball of string on the counter.

She says, confused, "Sir, I thought you were looking for some tampons for your wife?He answers, "You see, it's like this, yesterday, I sent my wife to the store to get me a carton of cigarettes, and she came back with a tin of tobacco and some rolling papers; cause it's so much cheaper. So, I figure if I have to roll my own ... so does she.
