Best Tampons for the Big Woman

This article details the differences of the major tampons on the market and emphasizes the need of the big woman in regards to tampons.

Kotex. According to Kotex.com, they use a special cotton blend to help with tampon absorbency. Too, this special cotton blend helps the tampon to naturally form to your body to get the most comfort from the tampon. Too, a proper-fitting tampon likely means maximum absorbency because if the tampon forms to fit your body, it leaves no gaps through which to leak. Kotex offers a regular, super, and super plus absorbency tampon, and you can also buy a multi-pack of all three absorbencies to protect you from beginning to the end of your period each month. A big woman can feel secure with the Kotex brand tampon.

Playtex. Playtex offers regular, plus, and super plus absorbencies in the tampons they market, too. You can also buy a variety of tampon absorbencies in a multi-pack. Playtex tampons come with deodorant and non-deodorant options. According to Playtexproductsinc.com, these tampons offer 360 degree protection by opening up all around. The trouble with this is that the material often holds the liquid, rather than absorbing it. This leaves you feeling wet and uncomfortable. Even worse, it leaves you with worry that you are not maximally protected during this crucial time. The material seems to fail in absorbency, at times, adding to the insecurity that a big woman has about female protection.

Tampax. Tampax makes their tampons a bit differently too. When you remove them, they look like the old Wicker Scent wafers that you used to pull up from the bottle to freshen your home. Imagine one of these Wicker Scent wafers filled with pink freshener, and you will have an idea of what a Tampax tampon looks like when you remove it from your body to insert a fresh one. These tampons are absorbent, though, if you can actually insert the tampon correctly. Unfortunately, many of the Tampax Tampons provide cardboard applicators, making insertion a painful experience at times because cardboard lacks the flexibility that soft plastic offers, so you don't always get the proper fit. Proper fit is important, especially for a big woman.

o.b. According to ob.tampons.com, o.b. tampons are the only tampons in the United States that does not have an applicator. These extra small tampons are easy to tote in your pocket and have a durable plastic packaging. These tiny tampons are absorbent for their size. Still, you'd be better off not depending on these tampons during the heavier days of your period. These grab-and-go tampons work best during the very beginning and the very end of your menstrual cycle. If you choose to use these tampons during your heavier days, you will likely spend a large amount of time in the restroom, so don't count on o.b. for your heavier period days. A large woman needs to feel confident about her menstrual cycle protection.
