Ladies, if you are looking to boycott Tampax, I highly recommend menstrual cups.

This, in spades. Personally, I find a disc works better and is far less fiddly. It's just squish down to tampon length and shove. Plus there's a lower chance that you sucker punch your cervix when the cup opens up from the fold. The lumma has a silicone string, so you're not required to fall into a yoga pose and fish it out.

Ooh, I had not heard of menstrual disc before. So it's like a menstrual diaphragm. That's cool.

Who needs Tampax when there are so many alternatives?
