Question Posted Friday December 14 2007, 7:01 pm

14/4

i got my period for the first time on thanksgiving and i used pads the rest of the week. they're pretty annoying, like having to worry about it and stuff. so i tried putting in a tampon just to see how it works and whatever. thing is i couldn't even get it in. i know how, i've read books and whatever lol but it just wouldn't go in. i'm like the last one of my friends to even get my period so i feel like an idiot because i'm basically the only one who doesn't use tampons. i have no idea what i'm doing wrong and i definetalyyy am not asking my mom or wtv for help. akward much?

Hey, my name is Em231 and I think I can help ok
you should stick with pads because you can get a desease with Tampons like if you keep it in to long or you pull it out to quick. So, if you want to
use tampons you should ask your mom about it she
had her period way longer before you!
I hoped i helped

I know how you feel... it took me forever to get a tampon in the first time! But you can do! Here are a few tips:

1) Get the thinnest size tampons you can find. Most brands makes a "slender" or "junior" size.

2) Wait till a day when your period is pretty heavy. The wetter things are down there, the easier it will be to slide it in. You can even put some vaseline on the applicator to make it more slippery.

3) Aim in the right direction. The diagrams always show to aim towards the small of your back, but for some people it's easier to aim it lower, more toward your tailbone.

4) Most important: RELAX! If you're tense, the muscles of your vagina will be tight and it'll be harder to put the tampon in.

5) Once you've got it lined up and ready to go, wiggle and twist it around while gently pushing it in.

6) Try different positions: sitting on the toilet, standing up with one leg up on the bathtub, or even laying down on your bed.

Don't give up. It's hard the first time, but it gets really easy after your first couple times. And it's sooooo worth it not to have to wear a huge "diaper"!

Good luck!

Are you sure your Putting it into the right hole?

You might still be "tight".

After sex your vagina should have widened.

If you have not yet had sex... then use a dildo!

Etc Etc.

Even though it may seem akward, ask your mum for help, as she has most probably delt with this kind of stuff :P

Hope everything works out!
