I have not used a pad since I got first my period over 25 years ago. I always found other pads to be like scratchy diapers.

I bought these right before my surgery because I could only use pads after it for a few weeks.

This pad is almost perfect. It is extremely soft to the touch, thin, and lightweight. You do not even notice you're wearing it. Seriously. It would be 100% perfect if there was a bit more adhesive closer to the ends of the pads, and more on the wings too. I am not even mad I have left over pads from my surgery. I know they won't go to waste.

If I was forced to only ever use pads, I would always choose this pad. It is truly the cadillac of pads.

So I’ll be honest I didn’t like these at first. So I wasn’t gonna leave a review because I don’t like leaving bad reviews. If I don’t like a product I’ll just keep it to myself. The texture is different with it being bamboo. Some of the fibers can rub off a little and stick to ur privates and u have to take it off. Not painful or anything and it’s not uncomfortable or irritating just annoying. So anyway I wear my flex reusable disc on my first 2 days which are super heavy and then I usually switch to period underwear. I didn’t love these liners so I just keep them as backups. So my period underwear was dirty so I had to use this liner on day 4 on regular underwear. When I got home there was quite a bit of blood on the liner for it being day 4. Way more than normal and I was like oh great. I peeled the liner off my underwear and it did not leak through at all!!! Any other liner I have used in the past would have definitely leaked through. This liner held up so well I couldn’t believe it. So that for sure is worthy of 5 stars. I will still use them as backups to my period underwear because I prefer the period underwear but it’s so nice to know that if I haven’t done laundry and I don’t have a heavy enough flow for my flex reusable that these liners will come through if my period decides she’s not done yet (which often happens) .
