I have tried so many brands to name a few u by kotex, playtex, tampax, equate bran etc. I can not find a brand that is comfortable. And it sucks because I'm a teen who works and doesnt I rarely can go to the bathroom at work and I have a really heavy period. And I go to school. I can only wear pads because they are comfy and I dont have to change them so often. I also get really bad cramps and any menstrual medication and tylenol doesnt work. I usually only take ibuprofen because that works best. I am willing to try anything. If you have a brand of tampons that are comfy comment. If you take some other type of medication and it really works for you comment. I have tried just about anything. Including heat which doesnt do anything.
