Okay, so im 19 years old, and i just started using Tampons today...weird i know. But ive always been kinda freaked out about shoving a thing up inside of me. Dont get me wrong, i love sex, its just doing it myself that freaks me out.

So, i put one in this morning, and that went find, other than my obvious nervousness. BUT Im just curious, how long should i leave one in? Is there a way to tell?

And when i took it out and put a new one in there was no blood on the applicator. Like...does it absorb all the blood on the way out?

Also, is it okay to sleep with one in? I know u can get TSS and stuff, but any horror stories? Id really rather not use a Pad to sleep anymore. They just make me feel disgusting. Especially now that i live with my boyfriend.

Thanks so much for your help!!!!

Read the directions that came with the tampons. They usually say you can leave them in for up to 8 hours, but it's fine to sleep with one in. When you go to the bathroom, tug on the string. If it slides out, put in a new one. If it resists, leave it in for a few more hours.
