Yes, a diaper or incontinence pads can be used instead of menstrual pads if your flow is heavy, as too can maternity pads which also hold a little more. It would be a good idea to consider cloth pads which can hold a little more than commercial or organic menstrual pads, you can also add extra liners.

What feminine hygiene products are available for woman to use when they menstruate?

In the United States there are two major types of feminine hygiene products - sanitary pads or napkins and tampons. The sanitary pad or sanitary napkin is a single use disposable absorbent material with an adhesive backing that is placed within the woman's underwear to collect menstrual blood as it flows out of the vagina. The tampon is a single use disposable absorbent material shaped into a rod or tube with a string on one end that is placed within the woman's vagina to collect menstrual blood as it flows into the vagina. There are many different varieties of each of these products, and most women find a product and a style they are comfortable with. If you are sent to purchase these products for another person, the best option is to either carry the empty package or to take a picture of the empty package then find the exact same package in the store. Outside of the United States there are other products including reusable sanitary napkins (usually made of cotton or another fabric that is washed and reused multiple times) and menstrual cups (flexible plastic cups that are inserted into the vagina to collect the menstrual blood then are removed and washed out then reused).


How does it feel to wet an adult diaper?

It depends of the diaper and the amount you wet. Most store brand diapers are only designed for constantly dribbling, so they cannot handle sudden flows of large amounts of urine. Wetting them is just like wetting your pants only you have a large wet mess between your legs. However, if your using a quality diaper like Dry 24/7 it will hold the urine much better and away from the skin. You will feel the warmth of the urine and some moisture, but it will quickly seem to dry. Then you will have some weight added to the diaper until you change it.
