It really hurts to wear a tampon

Tagged as: Health<< Previous question   Next question >>
Question - (27 January 2009) 2 Answers - (Newest, 27 January 2009)
A female United States age 30-35, anonymous writes:

It hurts incredibly bad to put a tampon in. It doesn't feel like normal pain like it hurts really really bad and it seems like it can't go in. It seems like there is something stopping it. I hate using pads and being on my period would be so much easier without them! Is there a chance I can't wear them and something is wrong with me? Please help! I have heard everywhere to squat, relax, put one foot on the toilet, finger myself, but nothing works!

ok i hope your using the easy glide ones like pearl dont use cardboard or the ones without apllicators. Its important also to make sure your putting it in deep enough otherwise it will feel uncomfortable and make sure its straight when inserting. other than that you shouldnt have any problems and if you do dont be afraid to ask your friends or mom.

If you want, you can go to your gynacologist and ask her how to put it on properly. It doesn't seem like you are putting it in properly. I would also go to your mom first if you two are close. Otherwise, just read the box and relax. Many times, it could be pscychological. Don't worry. It's not a big deal. Just try again next time you're on your period. I'd also ask the school nurse about it.

*oh the youngins... :) they don't know how good they've got it*
