Make sure you are using the correct tampon size for however heavy your period is.. you should start off using slims because they are easier to use.
1. You should hold the grip of the tampon and slide it up until your fingertips touch the vagina then hold it there. then with your other hand push the top part of the tampon until you cant any more then ur done. if it doesnt feel comfortable you can try adjusting the string a little bit from side to side.. i know it sounds gross but it can help!
2.It's safe using tampons if you follow the directions and make sure not to keep it in longer then it is supposed to be in for.
3.It won't harm your body if, like i said before, you pay attention to directions
4.I don't think it can damage anything inside your body when it expands... maybe in veryyy veryy rare cases?? but i dont know
5. It shouldnt be to far in because the string should always be hanging out
6. they are all the same length im pretty sure..but the sizes are different depending on how heavy your period is.. slims are for very light flow, regular is regular, and super is for very heavy flow.
you just have to test them out and practice and see what works for you.. tampon pearl is a good brand and tampax compact they are smaller to carry them around in your purse is easy.
If you have any more questions or want to know more about if they can harm you I would ask your doctor... doctors will know all about that stuff.. or google it!
hope i helped!! =) [ CheerCrazyx0x's advice column | Ask CheerCrazyx0x A Question ]

Well first, A tampon can not get stuck:P It does have an end and it is impossible to get stuck, The little thread on it could get stuck in there but it is still easy to get out.
If you are using a tampon it may break your hymen, No big. It will bleed but since you are already bleeding it will be hard to notice.
Many people may tell you that virgins are not supposed to use tampons. NOT true.
I doubt that if it does expand, If using in water. It wont damage anything.
The size really depends on how much you bleed.
Uh thats all really know, Hope I helped. [ Telly24555's advice column | Ask Telly24555 A Question ]
