How do I insert a tampon?

I can’t insert a tampon without it hurting. Is something wrong? How do I get it right? Tampons can be tricky at first, but they shouldn’t...

Hey, I was going to ask my mom about why the tampon won't to in, but I can't work up the courage to. Every time I go down stairs I think it's gonna be so awkward./.. Then I just end up going back to the bathroom and trying it myself. How do I convince myself that it's normal to an my mom about that? Thanks in advance <3

 

Hey girl! Your mom has had her period for a long time, so asking her questions about it is totally normal! You'd ask her questions about cooking a meal she's made 100 times, wouldn't you?  Part of being a mom is helping your daughter out with the kind of stuff she needs advice on, so your mom will be able to answer your question or help you out and it will be no big deal, I promise. xoxo

(same one that answered my question last time)
Hi again Smile
I tried a couple of Times and I even tried opening my legs more and breathing out when I do it just like u told me too. It still won't go in so I wanna ask my mom but idk how because it's awkward........ Help) how do I ask her?

 

Hey girl! Get your mom alone (no need to have this convo in front of anyone else) and explain to her that your period is giving you a little bit of trouble.  If you just state the facts (you can't get a tampon in) and answer her questions, you'll feel better.  It might be awkward for a few minutes, but you'll feel better once the problem is resolved. Good luck! xoxo

(the one that answered my question)
I've already waited I day I tried this last night and it wouldnt work I didn't really thinknmuch of it I just thought on well its probably because my flow is light. So I put on a pad. But this morning I tried again and it wouldn't work. I use tampax pearl lights the ones I always use. Have an idea why it won't go in? What other positions can you go in?

 

Hey chica! Try opening your legs more.  And try breathing out right before you do it so you aren't tense.  I'm not sure why it won't go in, so if its' really a problem, ask your mom or ask your doc about it next time you go in.  xoxo

HELP PleasE
So I just started my period for this month and i tried inserting a tampon ( like i always do) and for some reason it won't go in. It goes like 2 inches then it stops. Idk why though cause I've been found this for over a yer. I have no idea why it won't go in/ I tried like 10 times already .... I know I'm not tense down there and idk any other reasons why it won't go in. Please help!

 

Hey girlie! Maybe you were going in from an odd angle, or got a brand you don't usually use?  Wait a day and then try again.  If it still isn't going in, talk to your mom or your doc. xoxo

Help me! The other day I was going to be going tubing and I tried to use a tampon. I'm pretty sure I didn't get it in properly so I just watched and took pictures. Now I'm going swimming with all my friends (and a cute boy) and i might have my period. How do you use the tampond that have that weird cardboard tube?????

MOD MOD MOD!
this scares me!
I have had my period a few times n tried a tampon for the first time. I inserted it n it hrt! i kept it in over an hour n when i took it out it was covered with blood. BUT, when i went to the bathroom right after it was out of THE SAME HOLE!
i'm freakin out, but i no its not a urinary infection, cuz i've had my period like normal n stuf, so WHAT IS IT!!!!??? Do i hav sum condition? I really need help! Ive tried the tampon agin n the same ting hand




Hey girlie,

It's totally normal for your tampon to feel uncomfortable/hurt during the first few times you use it. Your muscles "down there" just have to get used to it! Once you use them a few times, your bod will get used to it and you won't feel any pain at all. Promise Smile I use them and love them! They're like sponges so they're meant to be covered in blood once you remove them. That's how it stops your period flow from coming outside of your body. But try to calm down, because we don't pee (or go #2) out of the same hole that the blood comes from. They're all separate, even though you can't really tell at first. If you have questions about your bod "down there," try asking a doctor who can help with an explanation and a diagram. Tampons don't affect your ability to go to the bathroom! Smile

MOD MOD MOD! I've tried putting tampons in a couple times now, but it never works. I heard if it's too dry, it doesn't go in right, but what can you do to get it less dry? Also, is there a correct 'angle' to put it in at, cause it goes a little bit and then just stops going in. Thanks! Smile

 

Hey rockstargal03, maybe you don't have the right size. Try getting a size down and see if you can insert them easier. It may help to prop one of your legs on something, maybe the toilet, to get it in easier.The whole dry thing I think refers to you down there, so it's best to put it in when your on your period than a regular random day. Hope this helps! Xoxo
