Pad prob! How do I get them from my locker to the bathroom?

 
I just recently started my period, and I keep my pads in my backpack. How can I get from my locker to the bathroom without people seeing my pads?

 

 

Good question! There are a couple of ways to be super stealthy about hitting the bathroom when you’re on your period. Pick the option that works best for you (and if we missed one, let us know in the comments!).

 

#1 – Shove it up your sleeve

Admittedly, this one works best with tampons, but we’ve done it with pads, too, when times get desperate. Just slide the pad from your locker into the sleeve of a long-sleeved shirt, sweater, sweatshirt or jacket. Done!

 

#2 – Stick it in your waistband, in a hoodie pocket or under your shirt

Wearing a tank or tee? Try shoving the pad in the waistband of your jeans, beneath your top or conceal in a coat.

 

#3 – Grab a bag

Easiest option? Snagging a small purse for your period products, a toothbrush and a little lip gloss.

MOD I just got my "you know what" today. I need some advise on talking to my Mom about it. I already told her, but started crying because she makes everything so awkward. I just don't know what to do about it! Also I don't know how to bring pads around school. Im afraid that if I put them in my pocket they will fall out. Also if I put them in my pencil case or a purse, my friends and even guys will go through it not knowing pads are in there. Also with my pencil case, my friends and others go into my pencil case without asking looking for a pencil or something. Please help!!!

Hey girl, just take a deep breath and do your best to remain calm while you talk to your mom about your period.  She's been through this before too, so she'll probs be more understanding than you think.  If there's a little pocket in the inside of your purse, you can stick a pad in there.  You could also wrap it with a tissue to disguise it if you like.  Ask your friends not to go through your purse.  If they do and they find a pad, then the joke's on them.  They'll probs be more embarrassed than you.  Just keep your cool and exude confidence.  If they ask about the pad, just be like, yeah, I started my period.  No big deal.  You got this.  Good luck!

What I do is I put a pad in each of my shoes, right under my heel, before I go to school. Then whenever I need it, I go to the bathroom and untie my shoe and use it! Then I stuff one in my pocket before I go to lunch and put it in my shoe in the bathroom at lunch!

1. buy a mini purse or backpack filled with tampons, pads, make up, etc.
2. tell your teacher its an emergencey "girl thing"
3.put them under your shoe
4.some girls put them inside their bra!

MOD MOD MOD
I have 2 questions about periods...
1) My period comes every other month but lasts about ten days. Should I see a doctor?
2) My school is going through major renovation, and we don't have lockers anymore... I can't go to the bathroom between classes because its way to crowded, and I don't want to be late! How can I go to the bathroom in class, and bring pads? We have to carry ouur bookbags now between classes, so that's where my pads are. I sit next to guys is a lot of classes, so I don't know how I could discreetly get a pad out, and go to the bathrrom.
Thanks Smile

 

hey! 1) when in doubt, it never hurts to see the doctor 2) maybe keep one in your back pocket then you can just get up and go without rummaging around, good luck!

Im still in elementary school so I keep pads in my desk and I've always done that. But today some guys in my class went through my desk and found them when i was in Orchestra! I didnt know so when I came back to art class some boys laughed at me. My friend (lets call her get R) R said I need to tell you something. I thought that I had leaked and there was blood down there but no. She said that T and K had found a pad in my desk. I was so embarressed I broke down and cried. Is that bad?? I didnt want the teacher to know because those guys are my friends and they didn know what it was but they found out. They werent teasing me but still. They got in trouble and were told not to talk to me, im afraid that they will always look at me funny now. How do I get from my desk to the bathroom? And please help im still embarressed. -_- MOD MOD MOD MOD PLEASE!!!!!!

 

 

hey! if they start acting weird, just act like it doesn't bug you and eventually they'll forget about it. try putting the pads in a small bag that you can carry to the restroom if you need to. good luck!
