I am 24 years old and I suffer from Endometriosis. I just decided to switch from disposable menstrual products like tampons and liners. I have a light to heavy flow depending on the time of my cycle. I am currently using the Instead cups but they do not hold as much fluid and they tend to pop out if I cough/sneeze. I am one of those people that hates thick diaper like liners/pads. Being 5'3" and 112 pounds I tend to look like I am wearing a wet diaper if I wear maxi pads. I feel like anything other than a ultra thin pad just feels too bulky and wet. I have been looking at various sites like Lunapads and Gladrags but they are wayyy to pricey for my pockets. So overall my biggest needs from cloth pads would be to back up my Lunette cup(I am ordering it tomorrow). Also as liners or light day pads and maybe overnight on nights where I am in too much pain to wear a cup.
Can anyone suggest an affordable brand that has thin, absorbent and also comfortable pads?
