(sorry if this is gross :( )
i feel so stupid. i cannot for the life of me put a tampon in.
im 16 and ive had my period for three or four years and i keep trying but i cant get the applicator in more than halfway. i know HOW to put one in but it just wont go in! any advice on how to make this easier? thanks

If it doesn't go in the first time, don't get discouraged & huffy. Just try again & keep trying until you get it. It takes a few tries. You won't always get it on the first one. :)
It also could be the size of the tampon as well. Try a smaller size (for a light flow, or for a moderate flow - so light or regular tampons). [ christina's advice column | Ask christina A Question ]
