Do you change a tampon every hour?

It can be normal for some women, you know best what is normal for your body - if this is a new occurrence then it would be best to talk to your doctor. If you're going through a super or ultra absorbency tampon every hour then your period is heavy so it's best to check with your doctor to make sure everything is okay and look at treatment options. Do not allow your doctor to palm you off with hormonal Birth Control, although withdrawal bleeds on the pill can be lighter than menstrual bleeds it's not fixing the problem, it's not the most effective means of reducing flow, and it's putting you at unnecessary risk.Consider using Tranexamic Acid to reduce flow, and use menstrual cups which can be worn far longer than tampons, at times when you'd not be able to safely use tampons, don't leak like tampons, and can reduce flow.
