Thick maxi pads vs. ultra thins?!


Question: Thick maxi pads vs. ultra thins.?
i have recently started my period and i am just sticking with pads (for now) and my other friend told me that she uses the maxi pads because they hold more. but i always thought that the thin ones hold just as much. and one time i accidentally bought the maxi pads and it was like wearing a diaper!! and i said to my friend, how do you walk around with that all day.? she said cuz then she doesnt have to change as often but i was wondering,, do the maxi pads really hold more, or just the same.?.?.?

thanks for the answer cuz i really want to say "i told you so!"Health Question & Answer


Answers:
they hold about the same.
i think most of them have the absorbency on the side of the packet, in grams or whatever.
anyway, i wouldn't complain about having to change them a little more often.
tell your friend it's unhealthy and unhygienic to leave them in too long.
go with the comfortable ones, girl.
and don't let people pressure you into wearing tampons either.
stick with what you're comfortable with.Health Question & Answer

actually the thicker they are, the more they hold.
they are called "maxi" pads because they are bigger. (that's why maxi is used in the word)
and adding "thick" to them obviously makes them hold more.
i think it's obvious that there is a difference between thin and thick...and i'd hope that you would have sense to realize the obvious answer that thick would hold more than thin.

so i'm sorry, but your friend is going to be the one saying "i told you so."Health Question & Answer

ultra thins actually are much stronger than i thought at 1st, and they absorb it quite well and r quite comfortable. maxi pads are pretty good 2, but i prefer ultra thins. im not sure which one holds more thoughHealth Question & Answer
