As mentioned above, tampons and sanitary pads are the two most reached products to be used during periods by a majority of women. Both these products help in soaking up the menstrual blood efficiently while giving a cottony soft touch to their skin. However, the usage of these two products is totally different. Sanitary napkins are a lot easier to use as opposed to tampons. As you must know, how to use sanitary napkins you need to simply attach it to your panty and pull it up. While tampons are to be inserted right into the vagina. Even though the insertion may appear a little intimidating in the beginning, tampons are still a great product to pick.

Brands today have priced both napkins and tampons at very affordable prices which makes them very budget friendly. Besides, they also come in different pack sizes which are priced differently.

The best tampons come today in two different variants which are the regular tampons and the super tampons. The regular tampons can be used for your regular to light flow days and the super tampons are meant for your heavy flow days. Both these variants are created with a finger size absorbent core that can efficiently soak up several hours of menstrual flow.
