I've had a mirena since the start of last year. For about 18 blissful months, I had no periods so I haven't had to think about it for so long. Sadly my periods have now returned despite still having the mirena. For the last couple of months I've used disposable pads but I absolutely hate them. They're so uncomfortable and also really bad for the environment. I've managed to find the reusable pads I bought ages ago and they're amazing. This month my period has been so much nicer just by using the reusable pads.
Since having the mirena I've had increased discharge and had to use a daily liner. I've been using disposables which I know are really bad for the environment. Now I've found my reusable pads and gotten used to them over the last week, I'm dreading going back to disposable liners when my period ends.
My pads are from cheekywipes and I love them but they're a bit bulky for daily wear. I find even their liners are quite bulky as they're just shorter rather than less thick. I've tried their black fleece ones and their white ones (I've forgotten what material their white ones are). I bought ones from earthwisegirls made from organic cotton years ago but I felt really unclean wearing them as I felt I really smelt and got very sweaty using them.
Can anyone recommend any that are not too bulky but don't give you that awful sweaty smell?
