I have only seen these on retail LINKS online and in some threads elsewhere on various boards where they put up those links.

I have never seen one in person.

I have NO clue how 'clean' you can KEEP those things. That would concern me. Hot soap and water - rinse a lot. Bla and bla but how CLEAN can you keep them while you are out and NOT home to wash/rinse/dry them properly?

I am old (65) and do not have to be worried about that now. I went into menopause almost entirely (98%) after my late husband died. I was 51 years old when he died and had some previous menopause signs but I would still get a period on and off before he died. When he died - it was like my entire body shut down female wise.

I keep pads on hand just in case for some emergency.

I never met a woman in real life - off the internet who said that she used them.

I would be concerned about cleanliness and so forth.

The answers you seek Mayaca are all in the foxfire series of books. Your going to have to rely on the Old Ways I'm afraid.

That's the spirit!


There's just such a incredibly amount of choices now days, slim, Maxi, day, night, liners, wings. It's hard to keep it all straight in my head.

Have the complete set of Foxfire books with exception of the latest one "return/sequel ????"

That was a GREAT series, and the story behind it equally great. I love foxfire.

...What ever!

You know that the foxfire books started as a "magazine" at a high school in Georgia? The teacher wanted his kids to connect to their elders and the old ways of doing things. So he sent the kids out to interview relatives and family friends. It was part of the 1970's "Back to the land" movement. Which is sort of the root of my style prepping. I don't stockpile crates of stuff in case of an emergency. I try to learn as much as I can about how to live "self sufficiently" whether something happens or not.

Like I said, I love those books.

Placards, poster paints, lengths of lead pipe, and loudspeakers.

I keep a good supply of pads on hand, not only for the ladies but for fire tinder, bandages, butt wipes, etc

Those old Foxfire books were very good!

I passed them on to my former library in my former state.
