hi I’m 15 yrs old n I recently started wearing tampons bout a month ago. They r sooo much better than pads. As long as u r relaxed u shouldn’t have a problem putting them n. My problem is taking them out. I am currently using playtex slender lites. By I use them during my regular flow days. I leave them in for the maximum amount of time but for some reason they r difficult to take out. Other than that they r da best thing dat u could possibly use.. For anyone out there who r considering to use pads I say go for it
Just remember 2 relax be take ur time. I have been trying to use pads for so long but it wuznt till recently I wiz actually able to insert them. I alwaze would tense up b4 inserting them. Just remeber dat ur vagina isn’t too small to accomodate a tampon… And also use a mirror it really helps!!

Number seven is dead wrong. I’ve known people who had tampons go further than they’re supposed to and they had to go to a doctor to get it out.

If you plan on staying at university for a few more years, may I suggest looking into a degree in health?

I can so picture you as a public health nurse.

I don’t use tampons because I have an irrational fear that the string used to pull it out will snap, and the tampon will stay there FOR-EVAR!!1 heh.

<3 tampons, but whatever happened to that menstrual cup experiment? Do you still have that in the back of your mind, or…?

Reply: I’m still thinking about it, but due to the zero-to-none use of it in Australia currently, might wait until there’s better literature and support available…

if used correctly, the user should not be able to feel the tampon at all. If it causes pain, the tampon was inserted incorrectly.

How’s that possible?You shouldn’t be able to feel it ;)

Dammit, I expected pictures by clicking “Continue Reading” – you know, like the sealed sections of magazines.
