Tips for getting By with the dreaded Aunt Flow trying to get in the way.
Can't say you wasn't giving any helpful tips !!!!!
If you’re squeamish about chemicals: Some people use a sea sponge for a more “organic” approach. But the former sex worker who turned me onto this method said these sponges are far more temperamental and tend to leak. They’re good for reducing a gush to a trickle, but if you’re trying to avoid alerting a sex partner about your period altogether, this is not a great method. From what I can tell, the chemical factor of the white makeup sponge is about as bad as a regular non-organic tampon, though some people will tell you those are pretty bad.
If you insist on something custom-made for the vagina: You can order Softcups (the website claims you can find them at Walgreens and CVS, but in my experience they’re pretty elusive) or soft tampons. These cost more money, however, and the one time I tried soft tampons my partner complained that they felt scratchy on the tip of his penis.
I recommend keeping it simple and just buying the OG makeup sponges. I’ve been using these for a year and only once or twice have I discovered errant drops of blood. And this was only when I got lazy and left them in for more than one round of sex. Besides being able to have varied, relaxed sex during an especially horny time, this trick spares me that “Er, just a heads up...” moment with a super-new partner. Frankly, it’s none of their business!
That was easy
