    I do that aallllllll the time! its probably because the blood might roll downwards or something (idk thats my theory) because we're in constant motion but i always use the pad backwards

    I think its got something to do with the way your body;'s shaped some peoples blood runs backwards so they need more protection at the back but i it works better for you then thats great!

    I think periods are different for everyone and finding what works best for you is most important to feeling comfortable.
