Just pads, and those aren't embarrassing. I buy em with a pile of other groceries, so they blend in. All cashiers have seen them before so many times. *shrug*

I can't remember the last thing I purchased that was embarrassing to me. When I was 12 and just starting to have periods and was purchasing sanitary napkins, I preferred not to go through a checkstand that had a male clerk, but that was 50 years ago. Nothing fazes me now.

The most memorable was a box of "items" that I bought for my friend to prove to her once again how much I love her. Let me set this up:
When we were in college, we were in a store, about to go through a checkout line, where there was this gorgeous hunk of a guy, and she double-dog dared me to go pick up, a 10-pack of toilet paper, some condoms, a douche, some immodium, some feminine deodorant spray, tampons, batteries, cigarettes and beer. She told me she'd pay give me half the money and buy my dinner if I tried to flirt with him while making this outrageous purchase, and keeping a straight face. So of course I did, and he thought I was crazy, and she just owed me dinner. But it was GREAT for a laugh.
So anyway, she was having a pretty rough time a couple years ago having to recover from a surgery at her parents house (being older and back at the parents for a while - you can imagine how harrowing that could be) so for a laugh - I mailed her a box filled with tampons, condoms, immodium, toilet paper, cigarettes, batteries, a douche, some FDS, and even added a few things I won't go through all of them but- the first thing she pulled out of the box in front of her parents was handcuffs!!! LOL.....it was great!!!  * raspberry *

I can't imagine what type of personal hygiene product I buy as being embarrassing. There isn't anything embarrassing about buying things like soap, deoderant and the like.

I'm not embarrassed by anything I purchase. It's on the market for a reason, so I'm obviously not the only one buying it.

I'll tell you what Ben used to do and it must have worked because I never smelled his feet!! He used to use Absorbine Junior (yes... I know - it's a muscle pain relief thingy!) but he would apply it to his feet right after his shower. He said that it always felt refreshing and that stuff is so strong, it would kill any bacteria or fungus! If you use this daily, there ain't never going to be anything taking up residence on your feet!  * wink *

Awww - I get it! She gets to be menstruated every month, she is the who gets pregnant, she is the one in agony with childbirth, she is the Mom in charge of rearing the children, she gets to suffer menopause, and SHE has to take care of the rest? You could do your part and get fixed so she doesn't have to worry about that...

Honestly, between you and me? She NEVER menstrates, she cannot have children (without alot of help) and I doubt she will ever have menopause...... I forget the name of the condition she has but, she is supposed to take some medication to MAKE her menstrate but she hates it and she is like a 12 yr old when she does menstrate (a bit clueless as to what to do??? ) so I do not need to get fixed

Feminin Deodorant Spray - FDS

I never needed it - my neighbour (when I was 14) used it. I was clueless... I had never heard of it before I met her.
I had to go for another mammography the other day (all is well) but they ask you not to wear perfume or deodorant (when they call you back) as some products may alter the x-rays. So I went on one of the hottest days of the summer at 3 in the afternoon after I had been at work. I brought some compact deodorant to apply as soon as I was done... Know what? I didn't even need it. I think my sweat glands are dead from using that stuff daily...

Oh I see now. In my case - I had Ben fixed. I figured that I had done my part and the previous rant was my argument to him. Besides, being 10 years younger than Ben; our doctor didn't want to do me in case something happened to Ben I wanted to start a new family with someone else. He thought that I was too young to tie the tubes...

I'm way past being embarrassed buying anything. My late SO use to just hate commercials for douche while he was eating, so I can only imagine what fun it would have been going through a checkout with him and that.

If I was gonna be embarrassed, it'd be when my nephew had me pick out what dildo I wanted. He paid for it, too!

I never get embarrased about purchasing anything - I doubt a woman would. We get used to having to buy these things. My boyfriend refuss to get me tampons if I need them - the cashier, if he really pays attention is obviously going to think he's buying them for his girlfriend or mum. My dad picks them up for me sometimes - clearly some men are just funny about these things.

Oh actually I've just remembered I was slightly embarrased when I had to buy some head lice shampoo after I got them from kids at a primary school. Little buggers.

I purchase personal hygeine products from time to time, but I'm not embarrassed by this. Women have periods, they buy pads or tampons. It's a simple fact of life and completely non-embarrassing.
