Overall, I'm really glad we at least have one brand of tampons unlike the other countries you mentioned!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3100861979903128551.post-6282914624141836072010-04-17T08:24:04.794-04:002010-04-17T08:24:04.794-04:00The best of luck to you in your new marriage and l...The best of luck to you in your new marriage and life in Jordan. It's a beautiful country. With or without tampons!

When I told my husband I needed tampons and he didn't know what they were and everyone he asked had no idea what they were I almost had a heart attack. I still have yet to find them, but to be fair I haven't looked very hard in Amman yet, only the local stores and pharmacies around the house. I haven't had a chance to go shopping in Amman yet since this topic arose a day or two ago, so I decided to do some research on it. According to lonely planet they are widely available in Amman. Thank GOD! I never in my wildest dreams thought that finding a place to buy tampons would be an issue!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3100861979903128551.post-74447753685227971452008-09-09T19:31:00.000-04:002008-09-09T19:31:00.000-04:00This is too funny. fancy finding this topic by Goo...This is too funny. fancy finding this topic by Googleing. I had the same problem during my annual holiday to the Greek Islands. I usually have to use Tampax Super Plus all through my flow as I sometimes have leaks. These are humiliating & embarrasing to put it very mildly.(Girls, you "know" what I mean.)<BR/><BR/>But seriously, for those of us who are "heavy", please note. I bought a local brand as they had Tampax but only Regular, which for me are no use whatsoever. The Greek brand are called Abo and if you ever go to Greece please stock up on Abo Super Super +. No joke. On "flooding days" when you normally have to change twice an hour these are "the dogs gonads". They are a bit like big "bullets" but they are fantastic. I have only used a max of 3 a day and 4 on my "heavy day" plus an Always towel overnight. Whoo hoo!! <BR/><BR/>No more stained underwear, or embarrasing "bleed throughs". If you can find them, please grab a good supply, I have !! :) <BR/>BeeJayebAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3100861979903128551.post-15437138740890289122008-05-08T07:43:00.000-04:002008-05-08T07:43:00.000-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.Adline Writeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11660250310648000404noreply@blogger.com
