Tampon rejection!!
I've had my period for 3 years now and I normally use pads, occasionally tampons... but most of the time I do use tampons, my body rejects them. I know how to properly insert one, but.. my body says no. Today, I put in a tampon and it felt perfectly fine for about 5 minutes, but then I began to walk around and now I can feel it. How can I get it to be "normal"???

I remember those days as a teenager. The first couple times I used a tampon, I followed the instructions for inserting it. But I never inserted far enough. If at any point youThe moment I began to walk around or sat down, I could feel it. That sensation happens when it is not in far enough. Once its in far enough, you can actually forget it is there.
You can't lose it or get it in too far that it is not retreivable. Your vagina dead ends at the cervix. It can't go any further than that. Once you get more comfortable with your body and learn to insert far enough your problems should stop. If not, perhaps it is due to the size of the tampons. Some are bigger in size for women who have heavier flows. So you might also try a different brand and size.
If you continue to have problems, you may want to go see a Dr. if you have never had a female checkup. There are rare cases where a young females hymen is a strip that goes down the middle rather than off to a side (septate hymen), This causes two openings to the vagina. Use of Tampons is difficult because of this and sex or use of larger objects such as dildos will be worse. For most girls with this condition, there is pain, tearing, bleeding and some have not been able to remove the tampon at all in extreme cases and had to see a dr. If you have this, it could also be an explanation of why you feel discomfort.
