"I'm sixteen and just started my period, trust me, I've got thousands of sheets of Tesco Luxury toilet paper blood stained to prove it.
I haven't told my mum yet and you just can't blurt out 'Mum, I got my period today!' over the dinner table.
Any advice on how to break the news, and any recomendations on pads?"

HI Dawn!

I can definitely understand that it is a bit difficult for you to talk to your mum, but you shouldn't worry! After all, she has been through it herself! I would recommend you find a quite moment when it is just the two of you and just go ahead and tell her!

In terms of which product to use, that depends on your body type and your flow. Why don't you try our on-line tool for finding the perfect product for you at http://www.always-info.co.uk/find_your_pad.html

Hope this helped!
