What if I only have two pads

Okay, so if you only have two pads, that's not ideal but you can totally make it work for a little bit! It just means you'll need to change them really carefully and maybe plan to get more soon.

What to do with two pads

  • Change often: You'll want to change your pad more frequently than usual, even if it's not totally full. This helps keep you feeling fresh and prevents any leaks. If you normally change every 3-4 hours, try every 2-3 hours if you can.
  • Use them smart: If your flow is light, you might be able to get more time out of one pad. If it's heavy, you'll need to change sooner. The Soso app lets you log your flow so you can learn what's typical for you. Knowing your flow helps you plan ahead!
  • Stay comfy: Wearing a pad for too long, especially if it's full, can feel kinda yucky and sometimes cause a little irritation. So, changing it as often as possible with the two you have is key.

If you're worried about running out or need to ask a grown-up for more, but it feels awkward, just tell them you need more supplies for your period. It's super normal and they'll get it. Period products are a necessity, like toilet paper, not something to feel weird about asking for.

The Soso app can help you track your flow intensity so you can totally know what to expect and always be prepared for your next period!
