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.

I keep my pads in a small blue bag in my backpack, but when I have to go to the bathroom on my period, I feel like everybody notices that I'm carrying a bag, and I get really embarrassed! Also, on gym days, I feel like people can see (or possibly hear) the pad when I get changed...Any suggestions? Thank you SO much!

Hey girlie,

I think it's ok if people see the bag--they might think you are fixing your hair or putting on lipgloss! You could also try some of the other tricks like putting it in your waistband or sleeve. And it's ok if other people know you have a pad on gym days, because they are girls too and are going through the same thing you are Smile

MOD. I feel a little old to be using this site (I'm 16), but maybe you can help me. I feel like I have a new crush every week. I cannot settle on a guy to save my life. I like a guy for a week, realize he isn't what I want, then move on. I haven't been able to linger long enough for a guy to even have the chance to notice me. Why am I so picky? Also, I had a very bad experience with a guy who I completely sold my heart to for three years and then he turned me down. That may have something to do with it. I don't know. Please help me!
Thanks.

Hey girlie,

It's totally normal to be indecisive, and there's nothing wrong with keeping your options open! I'm sorry you had a bad experience with a guy in the past, but the good news is that there are plenty of great guys out there, too. Maybe you could make friends with a few guys and get to know them better--once you know them you might have stronger feelings about what you like and don't like in a guy. And it's ok to go crushless for a while, too!

I keep pads in a little makeup purse that I carry around with me in school all day. Works well on trips to the bathroom but everyone thinks it is just a pencil case! Smile

what I do is I put my tampons (and sometimes pads) in my boot or i will put my pads in the back pocket of my jeans. if you use tampons without an applicator or they are the compact ones, you can put them in the front pocket of your jeans and they just look like chapstick.

I stuff my bra with pads. No one has a clue and it's no worries about it falling or anything. Even when I was really small it worked
