need a bit of re-assurence from the wise ones.
just having my first period after having my coil fitted - know they are supposed to make them heavier, but i was wearing a pad and super tampon and within 3hours had to change both.
ive never used tampons before and was wondering if im just really heavy or had i used it wrong? i can live with heavy periods but want to check that its not a big deal or anything coz it says u can wear them for 4-8hours on the box and i assume people use them without a back up pad too?
