Well, firstly, you don’t need a lot of time between tampons, technically – so long as the absorption size isn’t too crazy and you’re changing them frequently enough.
Secondly, fuck tampons, get a menstrual cup. For the uninitiated, it’s a silicone doohickey essentially shaped like a bell that fits around the cervix. Learning curve? Yes. Squick factor? Probably. tons of sizes. Safer than tampons (see Toxic Shock Syndrome).
Pays for itself in a few months if you have heavy flow.
Bidet would be a little less necessary but still, if heated, v nice.
If I’ve had a rough second day I’ll half-shower rinse, sure, but the merula xl is just about big enough to handle it otherwise.

I tried the cup. I have several sizes. They just got stuck in there and never popped open and almost ended up going to the ER to have it removed.
My condolences.
My super jenny isn’t firm at all and I don’t have trouble maneuvering it but the merula xl is very firm and that fucker hurts if it pops too soon ☠️
