This is embarrasing, but oh well, common and somewhat normal. I finally bought a real pair of cycling shorts complete with chamois, today. Yay! However, I've been hesitant about doing so due to some personal "problems." One - leaky bladder, two - normal vaginal secretions. I'm a clean freak, so this is an issue.

I would consider taking care of the leaky bladder problem, except, I will, hopefully, have kids someday, more than likely null-and-voiding any treatment. The other issue is normal vaginal secretions, especially during ovulation and menstruation. Menstruation is taken care of with tampons, but I still feel gross.

What are your experiences? The hard part, for me, will be going without panty liners or pads when necessary, but I do look forward to a more comfortable ride. Any advice? This is so new to me. Help! I need support!
