I tried once ... and got my period at 11pm in a strange town and did not know where to find any tampons

So needless to say, I have never worked up the guts to try again.

Personally after that I have never wanted too. I keep thinking that if your body does this once a month, who are you to tell it to do it every so often. Not choking YOU, just that is what I was thinking. So I take comfort in the fact that I know EXACTLY when my period is coming and that I have organised it that it does come during the week, so that I have my weekends period-free And I can take out my moods at work and not at home hehehehehe
