Q: I'm fifteen and when I'm on my period I usually use pads, but I want to start using tampons. What's a good brand to start off with? For sports also? Because I'm pretty active...

Also tips to putting them in? No websites please, they really don't help. I've only tried putting one in once and it hurt like hell.
when i first started using tampons i tried many times. i found it easy to put in first by using slim tampons. they have a very low absobency, but they are small enough that you wont hurt yourself by putting it in the wrong way. once i got comfortable with those, and using the aplicators, i started to use higher absorbencies. i would recommened tampax pearl over any other brand. after that i would also recommend playtex sport.

application: first either be sitting on the toilet seat or you can be standing up with your leg proped up on somthing, so that your legs are open. then hold the tampon aplicator with your middlefinger and your thumb.. and have your index finger.. or pointer finger.. on the bottom of the applicator.(the skinnier part.) insert the applicator until your fingers are touching your body. then..with your index finger push the bottom of the applicator so that the tampon enters you. then, simply pull the plastic or cardboard applicator with your middle finger and thumb.

remember to chage your tampon regularly.

hope this helps.

Thank you
