Disposable feminine hygiene products are something more women are ditching in favor of reusables, but many still fear the change. It’s understandable when we’re discussing an often stigmatized and sensitive area of the body, but I’ve been sticking to reusables for years and never want to go back. People with periods will tell you that they suck, but for me, these products have made it suck less. They are also more affordable in the long run and a stash of them can help those without regular access to disposables. Here’s a candid look at the products I’ve used. Hopefully, it will inspire you to try one out for yourself.
