Trust me... Females ONLY! Trust me...

Again I'm going to warn you if you are male you won't want to know or read the thread....

Sooo... Because this is my first time going for 2 weeks I was wonering (JUST IN CASE) how some of you deal with ...Your Aunt Flow...or Shark Week as some would put it... this just hit me as a possibility... I can imagine that its not the easiest thing to deal with while traveling especially if you get bad pains... so do you recommend bringing your own products or buying there... and of course any other advice dealing with the subject would be greatly appreciated.

OK, not a female, but have travelled with them when the Red Army shows up, almost every trip it seems like? Anyway those womens products are usually packed and brought with. Although with all my grocery trip experience seems to me they have all that stuff there!

Bring your own products!! Trust me!! Finding tampons in Negril, is a headache...pads, are plentiful but most are behind the counter. At valumaster,as you enter, there is a counter and you just tell the cashier or whomever is working there what you want. I searched pharmacies in Negril but I realize they dont carry alot of products. Another idea is to stop somewhere in Mobay.

LMAO...first response is from Poolguy!

If you use a specific product...bring it!
If you're more flexible with your choices...there's a fair variety of products here to select from....

In all the main grocery stores here in Negril...they have an aisle full of pad choices...HiLo, Value Master, Quality Trader.
Tampons can be found behind the counters at the pharmacies & Quality Trader (just ask)....or tampons are found in the aisles at HiLo & Value Master.

Well bring your own products that you know work for you. As for pain bring something that works for you too. Or if you are on the pill just keep taking them.

That's funny your first response a guy...Go Poolguy lmao!

Anywho just like the others says I bring my own products too don't have time searching for stuff when Aunt Flo visits she can be very demanding as I'm sure you kno ...so I'm well prepared from all angles although it only happened once hope it neva happens again..

I also googled deterring it nothn worked..lol

[Dan&Sue]

Continue taking the pill is exactly what my advice would be if at all possible! And it agree take them with you...much more comfortable with what you're used too. Good luck!

bring everything you could possibly need, you don't want to try out new products on vacation.
if you're on the pill here's some useful info on skipping your period.

Although I was able to find what I needed (tampons and pads) at HiLo in the aisle, I would still bring my own products. I have also found that "Polly" is a lot nicer to me when on vacation.....I think it has to do with the heat but who knows.

I do know that 2 big boxes of napkins I was donating, got me through customs real quick! Inspector opened suitcase saw boxes, and slammed it shut. Inspection over! Bring your own.
