Taking Tampons Out So I've been using tampons for a week, and I just went to take mine out, and it was difficult to take out, so I looked down, and there was this elastic skin that was wrapped around one edge!I didn't rip it or cut it or anything.I just had to dig the tampon out from the other side.So I was just wondering if that was good or bad that that happened, and if I should continue using tampons??

The elastic skin was probably a piece of your hymen... But it might not have been, if ur hymen is already broken.
If it's really really hard to get it out then you might not be using the right angle (i.e: if you're pulling it straight forward.
Make sure it's like diagonally pointing to ur vagina. ]
I had this problem as well the first few times I used tampons.
That small, elastic piece of skin is actually your hymen. If you google "hymen types", you will see what I'm talking about, and that they also come in many different variations.
Either your hymen hasn't broken fully, or you have a "split" hymen. Gross as it is to be giving out details like this over the internet, mine was attached almost down the middle of the opening, so that one "side" was slightly larger than the other.
When I used tampons, I had to make sure that I was pushing the tampon in through the larger opening, so that it would come out easier.
If your hymen breaks, you wont need to worry about this piece of skin blocking your tampon anymore. ]
Ok how long do you usually keep one in because your really not supposed to have it in there for more than 8 hours which is why I don't suggest using it when you got to sleep! Sometimes it's just hard to get them out so wouldn't worry but do some research if your completely flustered! I know that sounds really weird doing research on your vagina!XD but hey if your frantically worried then do it. Im pretty sure you'll be fine! Hope I helped! ]
Continue to wear tampons if you find them comfortable, but also if it is difficult to take out, then keep it in a while longer and it will be easier to take out . ]
