What do you do if you have leaky or weak bladder and you get your period? We cant fly away on some wimgs? Incontinence pads do not work with menstrual blood. Not to be too descriptive but it just causes the pad to stick to you. I don't know about you but I prefer to not wear a pad that I can get stuck to. I prefer to not have my pubic hair ripped from the roots! I have never had no desire to have a brazilian!*
You can just wear period pads because they can not hold any urine. Plus I have noticed they are not made to block out urine smells. So you want to know what I do? I put on the Poise pad and on top of it I put a period pad. I know it's bulky but I have to in order to be protected for both leaky bladders and periods. I just wear regular maxi pads not the ones with wings! I have always hated those things. There is already enough bulk and no room to add wings. Plus you wouldn't want to try to wrap a wing around an incontinence pad. The wings wouldn't be big enough!*
I know some may say to use a tampon. Will I can't because my right hand has numb issues. We already know I couldn't use my left due to the T-Rex arm I have. So I think my solution is pretty good. Plus the bulkiness flattens out a little once you sit down for awhile. We all just gotta do what we need to do. I just know I am ready for menopause to get here. Everything sounds good to me except the hot flashes. I can't get any hotter and sweater!!*
I hope you all had a great weekend.*
