Which tampons should I buy for... visiting women?

[sistawendy]

You guys all know that since I lack a uterus, I don't need feminine hygiene products, at least not since a few months after surgery. [Poll #1982373]Naturally, I'll want to get an assortment of sizes. The SS taught me that I can get such an assortment in one package.

Keep a variety of them at home, because there's a wide range of personal choices and needs involved. Amen to the 'unscented' and 'wings' comments, too.

Now, from the trenches as t'were: keep a couple of regular tampons and a pad in **your** purse. Yahh, you won't be needing them yourself, but, but..... I have lost count of the number of times that some poor girl in the next loo cubicle over has voiced the plaintive hope that somebody, anybody, within earshot, might happen to be carrying a spare. Trust me, tampon dispensers **do** run empty. :/

I was on depo for a decade or so before chemical menopause, thus no periods, & I've never kept tampons on hand for friends. My BFFs always seem to be on the rag when they visit (coincidence? something I bring out in them? dunno), & the random ancient maxipads I carelessly have in the back of a drawer are fine if they happen to not carry their own. IME, gals BYO if it's that time of the month!
