It really depends if your usually heavy on your flow but i thinks its better to take precaution and wear thick pads that are long
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.
The medical term to mean a heavy period is Menorragia.Menorragia is when the menstrual flow is over 80ml, although this is still fairly light compared to many people's menstrual flow. If you're leaking through ultra tampons or maxi pads within an hour then talk to your doctor to check everything is okay and get Tranexamic Acid to reduce flow, also consider a menstrual cup which hols more flow and can even lighten your flow too.

Yes it wont be as messy as pads but if its very heavy use back up pads or pantyliner while using tampons (try heavy flow tampons so it wont leak with your heavy flow)

The best type of pad would be a cloth pad, in general these are best as they're far more comfortable and hygienic than a commercial pads, but for heavy flow they are best as they don't come unstuck or gather up and can come in higher absorbencies. Opt either for a good all-in-one pad like Party In My Pants Pads, or an insert style like Lunapads which allow you to add extra layers to the pad on heavier days. Try buying cheap pads from Etsy first.

There are many brands of sanitary pads available in Lebanon. Many offer different types of pads for heavy as well as scanty flow.
Well if you have a light flow you would get the thinner pad. If you have a heavy flow you would get the thickest pad. If you have a medium flow you would get the medium pad. It is also prefrance of how if feels to you weather you like pads that are up against you or not and just in your underwear.

Wear pads and tampons. Avoid tampons,since it doesn't allow proper out flow of bad blood.Wear thick pads if you have a heavy flow.If your afraid of staining wear adira period panties. They are cotton and comfy.
No, tampons shouldn't be worn at night no matter how heavy your flow.Tampons need to be changed every 4-6 hours, which you can't do while sleeping, furthermore you need to alternate with pads occasionally when using tampons and overnight is the most convenient time to do this. If you have heavy flow consider using menstrual cups as they're safer than tampons so can be worn for up to 12 hours without any risk, can be worn overnight, and no need to alternate with pads. Menstrual cups are also good with heavy flow as they hold more, can reduce flow, and don't leak.

Pads are popular the world over as they are usually made out of excellent material that has good absorption power. There are many kinds of pads available for different types of flow. Some people like to wear them in conjunction with tampons as a reassurance and back-up. You are easily aware when a pad needs changing, and this might not be so for a tampon alone. Also, many people with heavy flow are also feeling uncomfortable and may find pads less stressful than tampons. It comes down to personal preference.
