There is skin in the way when i take out my tampon?
Question Posted Thursday August 12 2004, 5:31 pm
When i use tampons and i go to take them out, there is skin or something that i have to move over in order for me to be able to succeed in removing the tampon. Is this normal or should i get it checked out?

By the sounds of it, it is probably just part of your vagina. When you put a tampon in, your vagina normally 'hugs' the tampon. When you take it out, there usually is a little 'wall' I'll call it that you have to pull through first before it pulls out easily. I believe the 'skin' you are talking about is probably your labia (outer skin) which protects the vagina. It sounds normal to me. As long as you are able to use tampons properly and it doesn't hurt, I am sure you are good <3 [ gr8fruit's advice column | Ask gr8fruit A Question ]

sshelbyy answered Thursday August 12 2004, 6:41 pm: um, thats kind of weird, lol, but when u take ur tampon out, is it dry? you should like, wear a pantyliner while ur wearing ur tampon, then when you start seeing blood in the liner, thats your que. you might be taking it out too soon, then its harder to get out. but if u do that and it continues, see a doctor, or just stop using tampons.

If you'd really like a bit of peace of mind, tell your parents that, since you're getting older, you'd like to start seeing a gynocologist if you haven't started seeing one already. [ lorelei's advice column | Ask lorelei A Question ]
