Being a woman is pretty amazing, overall. Granted, I can't speak for what it's like to be a man, but I can tell you...being a lady is pretty awesome. One of the few downsides to being a woman is...menstruation.
Yeah, I'am talking about having your period. It's a total pain in the butt. Cramps, bloating, fatigue, hunger...and well, ALL OF THAT BLEEDING. As I am getting older and dealing with the signs of peri-menopause, I have found that my time of the month is totally different than it used to be. I never know when I am going to get it, how heavy or light it will be, and how long it's going to last!
For someone who travels almost constantly, an irregular period can literally make my life a living hell. Take my last trip to Barcelona as an example...I thought my period was over, and then it came back FULL FORCE as I sat on a bus on a day-long excursion.
I had ONE tampon in my purse, just because I always do...and let's just say that the day was a total nightmare and I had to pull one of those "tie your sweater around your waist" moves for the remainder of the day.
I learned a big lesson that day - ALWAYS BE PREPARED.
Now I carry tampons in my purse, as well as in my make up bag, my toiletries bag, in my backpack, my suitcase - I always make sure that I have a few with me, no matter where I am, JUST IN CASE.
Tampax® and Walmart® are excited to help women everywhere get power over their periods. Since Tampax tampons guard against leaks, we can feel confident and protected, no matter where we go or what we're doing. Yoga on a boat on the high seas? Yep, you're totally fine! They're made for comfort AND protection, so you can do any activity you like and know that you'll feel just fine!
Walmart carries an assortment of Tampax products at low prices, so I always have a box or two on hand at the house - with two women in the house, you can never have too many on hand!
