Woman 'will never use a tampon again' since trying £18 knickers from Primark and Marks and Spencer
A woman says she will 'never use tampons again' since trying £18 pants from Primark and M&S. The woman, who was sceptical at first, compared period underwear from the two high street giants.

It contained two 'medium flow' pairs, which the helpful packaging told me held the equivalent of three regular tampons, and one heavy, which was the same as four.
They weren't the sexiest knickers in the world but they were inoffensive and looked like standard pair of comfy pants - not like a nappy, as I'd feared. I could tell before I'd put my jeans on, though, that they weren't really seam-free. As expected, you could see where the pants cut in through my jeans - not so much of an issue if you're wearing something loose-fitting, though.
M&S M&S's selection of period pants was a lot smaller than Primark's, but the knickers looked prettier. There was even a pack of lacey, high-waisted ones that didn't look like period pants at all. There was a bigger range of sizes at M&S and it was numeric, which made my life easier. I went for a three-pack of colourful 'moderate absorbency period bikini knickers' in a 14.
Mostly, M&S's period pants did the job, but on a day when my period was slightly heavier , there was some leakage along the seam. Thankfully, they washed well.
