Question Posted Thursday September 9 2010, 10:53 am
hi everyone!
so, this is my 3rd period cycle ive been practicing with tampons. i have gotten some in before, but lately, they just wont go in. i feel as though they get stuck, and i am completely relaxed and using the slimmest ones because im on birth control and my period isnt that heavy. i dont know what i am doing wrong, it goes in a little, then just stops. it kind of stings a little, but not too bad. ive gotten some in before, but im starting to get frusterated! anything im doing wrong or that could help?

when i was first using them they kind of felt really awakward but then my mom said that i probably wasnt putting it up far enough, i thought she was crazy because i didnt see hwo it would go higher. but i did and ever since then i havent had an issue with it. it may just be that you need to push it up a little higher. it should be about 2 inches up (a little more or less)
i hope this helped. [ pinkcherries's advice column | Ask pinkcherries A Question ]
