Elcee answered Friday June 2 2006, 5:49 am:
Tampons don't usually hurt when removing them because they have absorbed quite a bit of flow. Maybe you are not having heavy enough periods to be able to use even the lowest absorbency. You must NOT leave your tampons in for too long because of the risk of TSS. It is for convenience that most of us use tampons because they are discreet but perhaps you could use very light pads. Without knowing about your flow and frequency, then it is almost impossible to say why they hurt you. Have you asked your Mum about it? Perhaps she can suggest different ways of inserting the tampon so that it can be removed without pain. There is also the possibility that you are inserting them incorrectly and that is why they hurt. I am sorry that I can't give you a definitive answer but talking to your Mum would, I am sure, help.
