Why wouldn’t you be? A virgin is someone who’s never had sex, not someone who’s never used a tampon. Using a tampon can break or stretch the hymen. But even if it breaks, you’re still a virgin.

POSTED IN body, period 101, tampons
of course you are!a tampon is not that thing a guy has,only if that enters your vagina have you lost your virginity.a tampon is a man made menstrual blood absorber.you can't have sex with a tampon.get real you guys

Is it safe to practice putting in a tampon when you aren’t on your period?

1. Say your name 10 times. 2. Say your mom's name 5 times. 3. Say your crush's name 3 times. 4. Paste this to 4 other quizzes. If you do this, your crush will kiss you on the nearest Friday, but if you read this and do not paste this, then you will have very bad luck! SEND THIS TO 5 QUIZZES IN 143 MINUTES. WHEN YOU'RE DONE PRESS F6 AND YOUR CRUSH'S NAME WILL APPEAR IN BIG LETTERS ON THE SCREEN. THIS IS SO FREAKY BECAUSE IT ACTUALLY WORKS

kami-j, using a tampon is much easier than you think it just takes practice and once you get it it a lot cleaner than using pads and youll feel more comfortable than in a bulky pad. read the directions on the box and if you need to to look at the (ugh) diagram just relax hope this helped hoodie
by hoodie_obsessed on 9/4/2009 2:05:16 PM
Mallory P. try wearing a panty liner and a tampon just in case you tampon leaks. panty liners arent as bulky as pads

XxsassyxpeachesxX, there are two different places down there. one to pee, one to have your period.hope this helped hoodie

For those girls who can't seem to get a tampon in the trick is to relax. If you are all stressed out you will start freaking out and not be able to put it in all the way. When I first tried a tampon it was like halfway out. I asked my mom why that was and she said it was because my body had cramped up, not letting it get all the way in. So ya. Good luck!
by Lucy-lu on 9/3/2009 12:30:53 AM
please please please help!!!!!! I usually have a normal to very heavy flow. I have used tampons for a few years, but a little blood still comes out. I am possitive I am putting it in right but, am I just too late when I change? Thanks! Mallory P.
by Mallory P. on 9/2/2009 12:45:15 AM
umm i have had my period for over 2 years now and i havent used tampons yet.... im really scared to try it and i dont know what to do because i am tierd of using pads!!!!

Why wouldn't u be a virgin ?
by jonasNtwilight3 on 8/30/2009 4:21:58 PM
I don't really get why everyone is so worried. I've only had my period like 5 times, but i started using tampons the second time i got it. THey dont hurt. If you can't see where to put the tampon in, just use a mirror.

Um...... I was wondering I havnt gotten my period yet and I am really curious. Does it hurt? Also, is it un safe to use a tampone? Will my lages really fall off? And what happens if you hae it and you want to go swimming?
by laxchick216 on 8/25/2009 8:49:24 PM
Stupid Myths, one girl in our group was actually trying to say that using tampons was just like losing your virginity and it depended on the size you used. She was saying if you used big tampons you lost your virginity and if you used thinner ones you didnt. The only reason I thought she was saying that was maybe with a wider or bigger tampon she thought it might be easier to break your hymen with it or with using a bigger tampon it felt more like what sex feels like. I use tampons and I have no problem and I know that I havent lost my virginity because of them.

by peacelovepuppies on 8/15/2009 8:33:03 PM
It does hurt some girls when it breaks, but it shouldn't hurt when you wear a tampon! Katie P.
by periodworrier17 on 8/8/2009 9:19:12 PM
Just because your hymen breaks, doesn't mean your not a virgin. Hymens can break from a lot of things, even sports. You're only not a virgin if you've had sex.

milanna900- If you just say 'girl problems' guy teachers just turn red and go 'ok go' its really funny its not as bad as you think that it will be i promise. Also, if you dont wanna ask your teacher to go to the nurse just ask to go to the bathroom and use toliet paper until you can go to the nurse. good luck! xoxo JULIA

by sasoo on 2/19/2009 9:50:33 PM
thats an interesting question. wowwww, okay.
by knewell101 on 2/14/2009 4:50:33 PM
We went over a similar question in health and she told us that when using tampons you don't lose your virginity but it could break the hymen part inside. I think people just wonder about this because you are putting something inside that isn't normally there. She said there were other ways of breaking the hymen like riding a horse, having sex and even masturbating can break it depending on what you do. I know it is a weird subject but people want to know about certain things and our teacher told us there was a lot of mis-information about using tampons.
