    I've found that the cheaper tampons offer a bigger "end" and thus it expands wider..if u follow me? Other than that idk what to tell u ..I'm sorry :(

    I use ob tampons :) I have a very heavy flow & they work great but they dont have an applicatior so some ppl think its gross but I promise its not that gross you dont really get blood on your finger & they are cheap and you get a lot. & they are better for the enviornment :)

    I just use the off brand. They compare it to tampax pearl. Just keep using the super plus, and put a liner down just in case. I read before that all tampons hold the same amount, but I dont know..

    I use the tampax Pearl and the Playtex gentle glide supers. I also have a heavy flow and always have to wear a pad too. But maybe try the gentle glided I like them a lot.

    I use Kotex Super Plus. They're fatter and stay in better, and I can use one for up to 6 hours with no worries. :)

    I use playtex ultra...I was using super plus but that wasn't working for me. I can't use tampax because of the way they open..they hurt(tmi) so the playtex ones are round and not flat like tampax.
