It's personal choice Sanitary pads has been standard for long time. Easily available and not very expensive and use and throw. Tampon needs instructions on how to use it. Also not all are comfortable inserting it. It's also associated with minimal risk of endometriosis. Menstrual cup. Newest entry into market. Reusable. Can try. No harm. Have to maintain cleanliness
