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...

Will inserting a tampon break my hyman???




Hey girl,

Yes tampons typically do, but so can a lot of other things like bike riding, horseback riding, and other sports that us active girls participate in! If you have any further questions, def ask your doc, school nurse, or an adult you trust Smile

I tried to use a tampon, and it felt like something was poking me, and it hurt. I followed the instructions and it still hurt. I really want to try them though, just in case.
Please help!




When i first started using tampons, it hurt me too at first. But dont give up and keep trying. It will stop working and youll love using them Smile xoxo kerra

MOD!
I am really nervous to insert a tampon. I have tried before but the feeling freaked me out. I would really like to try tampons. How can I be less nervous? Should I just go ahead and not think about it? please help so I can try as soon as I get my next period!
thanks!

 

 

It is a little bit scary, but just try to relax. the calmer you are, the easier it will be. Look in the tampons box, there should be a small pamphlet with easy to follow instructions on insertion! Also, ask your mom or big sis for help!

I just tried for the first time to use a tampon, and it didn't work out to well. I pushed the plunger all the way in until the plastic tube part, but when I pulled out the plastic tube part to keep the tampon in, the tampon was half way out. It was like that all 3 times I tried it, and I followed the directions on the box, too. What am I doing wrong?

MOD!!!! MOD!!!!
Is it possible to put a tampon in too far? Sometimes when my flow is really heavy, It goes in TOO easily. It doesn't hurt and i don't feel it if i stand up. Just wondering
thank you

 

Hey girlie, you can't put it in too far. There's only so much room to put it in. It goes in easier when your flow is heavy because all of that blood is helping it slide in.

MOD MOD MOD MOD! I'm reallyy scared to use a tampon!! I'm afraid I won't do it right or it'll fall out or hurt! Any advice?!




It can feel really uncomfortable if you don't put it in correctly, but it won't hurt.  And, it won't fall out! You just have to think about how many women use tampons- so it can't be that bad!

okayy......u might of already got help on this but if you havent then it could hurt bcuz its dry. an easier way to get the tampon in is to put vaseline on it then try. and if you still cant ask your mom for help. it might be akward but she knows just what you are going through....belive it or not......she was in your spot once! well......i hope this helps Smile good luck!

I use cetaphil (a gentle cleanser) to lubricate the tampon and make it easier and less uncomfortable to insert. once its in right, it is wayyy more comfortable than a pad, you don't even know it's there!
