this is embarrassing...
Ive had my period for almost a year now and basically im sick of pads. They are soo annoying and I dont think they work very well. The problem is im afraid of tampons. Do they hurt? This is really embarrassing but Im afraid ill hurt myself and I dont know how to put them in. I looked at the instructions but they seem soo confusing. How do you without hurting yourself and I was wonderring which is better tampons or pads?

tampons are so much better than pads. the key to using them is that you have to relax if you want to use them. otherwise you'll be too tensed up and you wont be as loose. to put it in you push it in until you vaginal opening hits the ring on the aplicator, then you push the other tube to put the actual tampon in. it might feel weird the first few times you do it but after a while you'll get used to them and you wont feel them.

Don't be embarrassed! We're all experimenting with new things so it's perfectly normal to get nervous and what not especially if you think about sticking something up there XD
I personally prefer tampons since they're not messing and smaller/compact and they are not messy. Key point..they are not messy.
They don't hurt unless you're putting it in the wrong way. Just put a leg up on the toilet/sit on the toilet and insert it with it leaning a little backwards. It should feel really uncomfortalbe and awkward at first but you'll soon get used to the feeling =]

tampons are way more comfotrble and you feel so much more clean! i just started useing them about two monthes ago. they seem so hard at first but once you get the hang of it, its really easy. im gonna tell you how i got it the first time andthen you can use as much of it as youd like.
first lie down on the floor. its easier.
take some deep breaths and calmdown.
get some lubricant from a drugstore and put it er...there
then slide the tampon in and try pushing it in at different angles until it dosent hurt. it will probably be around pointing twords your butt bone.
yeah then its in good job
the aplicator thing and the tampon are all flushable

Trust me, they are much more convenient, dependable & sanitary. No, they do not hurt. If you insert them correctly, you'll hardly feel them & eventually not feel them at all. The only advice I can give you is to buy a box of Tampax Pearl tampons & practice. Find the right angle & you'll have it down in no time. Not a big deal. :)
