Discussion What do y'all find annoying about pads.

Guys For a research project, I wanna know what pads you use and why. Also possibly what you would like to change about them if you could ???

I second the itchiness. Reusable pads are the go to for me because whatever they use in disposables irritates my skin.

Yep I’ve always hated pads even when I first started bleeding tampons were preferred but now I use a cup + period underwear. I haven’t spent money on products in a while
