This video should be shown to girls in school when they are taught about puberty and periods. It is very educational. Love you Ingrid.

ingrid teaches more stuff than a 5th grade health class this is so useful for younger gals starting out :)

[sunnystudydays]

Love the fact that you promote pads in a good way. I've always been embarrassed that I use them but honestly I can't stand using a tampon ! People judge me for pads but you know. It's all personal preference :)

I was on the subway in New York the other day, and there were so many ads for thinx. It's that period underwear that holds two tampons worth of blood. They were very straightforward, just essentially saying "periods suck, let us help, it's not gross". Seeing those ads in public made me really happy, though, because it destigmatizes periods, which happen all the freaking time.

My 13 year old self could have really used a video like this back in the day. Lol hope this reaches out to the younger girls who need it <333

[doddleoddle]

informative and light hearted just as it should be! Thanks for a cutsie vid on stuff like this, you'll probably help a bunch of younguns (and olderuns) out <3

[elineswarts]

Can I just say how wonderful it is that you made this video? At first when I saw you uploaded it, I thought "why does this need a video", but then I realised how important it is for young girls to get properly enducated in the subject of periods and how much I would have benefited from this video back when I was that age. And even watching this now, as a 20 year old who has had her period for a couple of years, I still learned quite a lot! Thank you for making this video Ingrid, it really got me thinking how important this actually is and I'm sure this will help and reassure a lot of your younger female viewers <3

honestly? these comments are so nice. literally, not even one of them is a hate comment or spam etc etc.. I love how a video about pads and tampons can bring women closer because y'know we experience the same things and we find a relation . 🌸

I'm 20 years old and have never worn a tampon in my life! #noshame
*Edit* - I still can't get over the fact that my comment is receiving so many likes and stories by you beautiful and courageous girls. I am happy to hear that we're in some ways very alike. Sending y'all and of course YOU Ingrid positive vibes and happiness all the way from Macau(China)

I've had my periods for years but I still watched the whole video

Also to all the young ones with vagina's: a few fears I used to have about tampons cleared up!
- the string isn't going to break off, it really won't.
- it's almost impossible to get in too far, there's a lot of room up there and you figure out a perfect placement within a few tries.
- You won't forget to take it out. / You won't accidentally put another one in. / You won't forget it's there... Why? Because you will notice the string every time you go to the bathroom.
- Your body won't suck it up all the way in because that's not how your vagina works.

Now the real question is how come you weren't my middle school health teacher omg

The colour of your lipstick, nails and jumper are extremely relevant for the subject of this video Ingrid

A tip for sleeping on your period: put down an old dark colored towel on your bed just incase you leak. You'll have that extra security and don't need to worry as much.

[BookWormJess]

Im honestly glad Im not the only person who prefers pads

[hails]

This is a great video for younger girls who are still figuring out how their period works, and what to use!

[georgiam]

It makes my heart happy that someone so well intentioned (and well informed!!!) is making these videos, particularly for young girls. I think most of us older ones didn't have anything like this when we were going through all the period stuff, my parents didn't explain anything, neither did my school, so it was VERY scary. Thank you for educating people Ingrid.

For anyone who is interested in almost everything menstrual cup and re usable period products, a young lady with a channel "Precious Stars Pads" has a lovely channel. She also runs her own business, selling re usable pads.

When I have a daughter when I'm older, I am going to show her this video, this has such a great explanation for everything.
