Why do i leak sometimes when i use tampons?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Heavy periods: Some people have very heavy periods requiring the use of tampons and pads. These patients should consider options to lighten the menstrual cycle. Mirena (levonorgestrel) and Sklya IUD are very effective for this and can improve your lifestyle.
