Answers:
Have you tried using a different size and shape of pad? if you are using tampons, you can double up with panty liners to help catch any leaking, and make sure you are changing tampons or pads often enough to stop any leaking.

Other Answers:
You can use a higher absorbancy tampon and change more frequently

I HAVE THAT SAME PROBLEM.USE A LARGER TAMPON AND ALSO WEAR A LONG PANTY LINER..CHANGE BOTH EVERY HR TO 2 HRS. I COMPLETLY UNDERSTAND.

Sometimes I have to wear thin overnight pads to avoid leakage. If I'm wearing a tampon I still wear the thin long pads. I've had that same problem before and that was my solution.

I had alot of problems with leaks when I was younger.. especially stupid gym class when I only would wear pads and we'd all have to lie on our backs on the floor and play silly games. I had to walk home feeling all awkward.

Anyway. if you're leaking theres six things you can do. 1. Wear a higher absorbancy tampon, but make sure its right for how heavy or light your period is. 2. Wear a thicker pad. 3. Buy pads that have wings. 4. Buy overnight pads and wear them throughout the day, they're longer in the front and back. 5. Go to the bathroom and change your pad or tampon more often. Don't let the pad or tampon fill up to its max. And last but not least 6. This is actually what I still do when my period is heavy and just in case I'm out somewhere thats not near a bathroom.. I wear a tampon and a pad at the same time. So when the tampon fills up, I have the pad on for back-up :) Just make sure you're not using a tampon longer then you should, 8 hours is the max!

Hope this helped! Best of luck! :)
