Pre-hysterectomy, I used tampons all the time (except after childbirth cause as Amber said, last thing I wanted then was to be "putting something back in!). I couldn't stand wearing pads (when I first started, after childbirth) - felt too much like a diaper and I was potty trained out of those things when I was TWO!!! Of course, I'm getting older (okay, so not THAT old - 43 in a few days) but....I hope like hell my bladder holds up and I don't have to "depend" on Depends later in life
