okay so I'm just starting to use tampons more - i've always felt like i can feel them and stuff - but i think it's because i try and use them when my flow is really light... i've tried using them on a more heavy flow this time - ive pushed it in as far as it will go but i can like feel the string when i clench my muscles - is this norm? just something you get used to after a while? cuz right now it feels super weird i thought you arn't meant to feel them at all...

Really, you only have nerves the first few inches in so you may feel the string but you get used to it. Depending on how heavy your flow is, every 5-9 hours should do the trick, but if you're swimming, probably sooner. The water tends to inflate the tampon as well.
AdivceJack answered Friday August 5 2005, 1:09 am: Have you tried changing the type of tampon you use? If you can still feel it you have it in wrong, look at the instructions and try again, It does take some gettin used to tho. I wouldn't leave it in for too long because off TSS, I wopuld change it every 5 hrs or so. [ AdivceJack's advice column | Ask AdivceJack A Question ]
