just tell your dad that you need to go to see your doctor, and if he askes why- say girl problems. [ Kels's advice column | Ask Kels A Question ]

spacefem answered Saturday January 22 2005, 8:19 am: What kind of tampons are you using? Make sure you're not getting super absorbancy ones, because those will be a lot harder. I'd recommend Playtex Slimfits... they're not the cheapest out there but they're very small.
hailebop answered Saturday January 22 2005, 6:08 am: You need to relax. Putting tampons in is difficult at first, which makes most people tense up as they get frustrated, which makes it next to impossible to put in, as all your muscles down below are tensed. They key is honestly to relax, take deep breaths, and if it isn't happening, try again in a few minutes rather than straight away. Also, smaller tampons designed for a lighter flow are easier to insert, as they are slimmer. Even if you have a heavy flow and these aren't that suitable for you it's easier if you get used to light absorbency tampons first, and, once you've got the hang of that, move up in sizes until you find the right absorbency for your flow. Good luck, and have a great holiday. [ hailebop's advice column | Ask hailebop A Question ]
NEVERLETG00 answered Saturday January 22 2005, 1:54 am: try putting your foot up on the tolite seat and putting them in there, their not sopossed to hurt at all, their sopossed to be comfortable, if you have more trouble talk to one of your best friends who wears them, they should help you, and plus you wont be embarassed to talk to them about these kinds of things. xox [ NEVERLETG00's advice column | Ask NEVERLETG00 A Question ]
MummuM answered Saturday January 22 2005, 12:35 am: Your probably putting them in wrong, because it's not suppose to hurt. Try reading the box, they always tell you what to do. You could also try putting the tampons in different angles, you'll get it!

Wenzie answered Saturday January 22 2005, 12:05 am: I know you said only girls to help on this but a good suggestion is to go to your family doctor, if he is a male then im sure he would have no problem getting a female nurse/doctor to show you a proper way to use a tampon.. Good Luck. [ Wenzie's advice column | Ask Wenzie A Question ]
