Lucky me, I just happened to get my period a few days before I leave for the beach with my friend. It's Thursday and we leave on Sunday, and my period usually lasts for about 6-8 days. I've never used a tampon before. I asked my mom, but she was no help. She just said hopefully it'll be done by the time I leave. Any suggestions on what I should do?

try playtex gentle glide
have fun!
love and hugs

MaDe_iiN_CaLii_x3 answered Thursday June 2 2005, 6:46 pm: Tampons are way better than pads & they may seem scary but they really aren't. Inside each package there's directions on how to use them. I personally recomend Tampax Compact. They are tiny and easy to use. There is a clear diagram on the back. It may take a few tries but you'll get it and feel comfortable. Don't give up & follow the diagram. If you're relaxed & do exactly as it says, you shouldn't have a problem. Good luck! [ MaDe_iiN_CaLii_x3's advice column | Ask MaDe_iiN_CaLii_x3 A Question ]
Saynotogymclass answered Thursday June 2 2005, 6:43 pm: I'm really not so great at it myself. But, there are really detailed instructions on a sheet of paper inside the box. It tells you everything. Look at the directions and all diagrams carefully and remember RELAX! [ Saynotogymclass's advice column | Ask Saynotogymclass A Question ]

They come in many diffeRent sizes, so I'm shoRe you can find an appRopRiate fit. Just make shoRe to change them often. Goodluck; you'll do fine. =D [ Mackenzie's advice column | Ask Mackenzie A Question ]
