tampon removal?
14/f i'm scared to try tampons again and its not because im scared they will hurt or anything because the last time i used them (when i was 13) i couldnt feel anything. anyways when i was 13 i was wearing a tampon and i was supposed to change it at 4 or something and i totally forgot and i ended up changing it at 6. its just that whenever i wear them i always forget to change them because i can't feel the tampon inside of me and im scared because i dont wanna get TSS or anything. can somebody please help me on how to change them sooner? thanks soo much

Get into a routine, that way you won't forget. Like I always change mine when I wake up, right before or right after lunch (depending on how heavy it is), around four in the afternoon, and then before I go to bed. Sometimes more often.

Once you get into a routine, it will be easier. Think of it in terms of Before school, at lunch, and after school, and before bedtime. It is recommended that you wear a pad at night. You might try a schedule such as 8-12-4-8 also.

You could just write a big 4 on your hand, you don't have to write "Change Tampon at Four!".
Or just make it apart of your schedule like at school. Change it during before or after a certain period in the day and then when you get home or something like that.
hope i helped =]

Well, I was afraid of the same thing, for the same reason. Now, I can't say that you won't get TSS, because there is always that little percent that you can. And writing on your hand, "Change tampon @ 4!!", isnt the best idea either, so this is a hard one to answer. Have a family or friend that you trust to help you remember. If you cant do that, then I would just stick to pads until your ready.
