I just started my period and i had a heavy flow, decided to use a tampon. it barely absorbed and now i am no longer bleeding after switching to a pad?

Don't worry: There is no reason to be too concerned about this, just give it a little time. If it is time for your period, you will probably start bleeding again soon. Just keep wearing a pad to protect yourself and clothing.
