Mooncup for me - so I guess that's the tampon option. But only for the first 3 days, for the following 2-4 days I use pantyliners as there's so little blood.
A mooncup is a menstrual cup. It's a plastic... cup, sort of like the top of a goblet with a wide rim and it sits inside your vagina and catches the blood. It's really easy to use, just a little odd to get out at first. The first few times I'd say wear a pad/liner with it because if you're not used to it it may leak, but I've only had that once. It's really easy to use and cheaper than tampons, plus you don't run out. And you can see how much blood you've caught in it because it has markings on! I know, I know, I'm so anal I like to measure EVERYTHING. Also because it's a cup it doesn't dry you out, which is the big problem with tampons, and because you're not dry you don't feel it very much.
