Should I Wear A Pad and Tampon?

Dear BeingGirl Experts,

Should you wear a pad and tampon?

Dear Reagan,

It should not be necessary as the tampon absorbs the menstrual flow internally before it leaves your body. However, you may feel more confident if you use a pantiliner with the tampon "just in case."

Good luck,

Your BeingGirl Experts

I just started using tampons this summer and I always feel like it's going to come out so when school starts I'm going to wear a pantiliner and the tampon at the same time
