Pads or Tampons?

Question

Allowing a period to flow naturally is a must in order for a women's body to grow propally. But using a tampon, however great it can be, is not natural since it doesn't allow your period to flow properly because of over-absorption. Over-absorption can cause problems just at late or missed periods, messed up menstral cycles and even cause more symptoms to appear than usual when you do get your period. 
​So, is using a tampon still worth using?

Answer

I don't buy this "its natural blah blah blah post." It's natural to have hair all over our body but we shave it (legs, armpits, crotch, butt, upper lip, chin, you name it). It is natural to have oil on our bodies and sweat but we wash ourselves (well some of us). It is natural to grow our fingers and toenails, but we trim them, chew them, paint them every possible smelly color you can think of, or get fake hard crap stuck to them. Its natural to grow pur hair on our head out but we cut it, put several hundreds of degrees of heat to it to change the look so it can supposedly look more "natural". We wash it with all these different chemicals and use dyes. Does anyone really know what the word natural means anymore?? Anyways, I will keep using tampons because I have a life that doesn't revolve around my "natural" period. I prefer not to wear a pad aka diaper. Nor do I want to stick a reusable cup up there either. Got stuff to do. Shove a tampon in there and get it over with!
