This tip reduces stains that are biological...

I've switched to using a product called "INSTEAD" instead of pads and tampons. They are a cup that insert inside. They last for 12 hours, so you significantly fewer of them than you would pads or tampons. So you save money. And, they don't leak, so no stains to wash out. Wonderful!
