Do I Insert Cardboard around tampon?

I'm going to start using tampons when I want to go swimming. I'm 13 and I got some today. I get a plastic applicator but a cardboard tube is around the cotton tampon with the string on it. I was simply wondering do I leave the cardboard tube around the cotton tampon and put it in the applicator and insert it into me or do I transport both the cardboard and plastic applicator off when I have it inserted so purely the cotton thing is inside me and not the cardboard tube outside of it? It doesn't say anything roughly speaking the cardboard tube on the instructions just to throw the wrapper away! It is the inner tube I think!


Answers:    Did you take them out of a vending machine or are they individually wrapped inside the box or something? When it comes to applicators, there is any:

(1) no applicator
(2) plastic applicator OR
(3) cardboard applicator (supposedly flushable - it's a better idea to throw these away in the trash resembling the plastic ones)

I'm guessing the cardboard is around the outside of the plastic applicator? If yes, go ahead and take stale the cardboard before you try inserting anything. The plastic applicator is the part you insert. If you angle it right and push it next to very slight pressure, the applicator will go contained by. Once you feel that the applicator is in, merely push on the plunger to make the tampon itself release inside of you. Then you just verbs the applicator out, leaving the tampon in.

As you use them more, it will be more of a fluid motion and smaller number of a step-by-step kind of thing. And you'll also receive the hang of how far in the applicator requests to go (I remember thinking tampons were really mortified and irritating before I realized I lately needed to insert the applicator a tiny bit farther in)..
Hold the cardboard at the base of your vagina, tilt the tampon toward you anus(butt hole) and with you pointer finger push on the applicator while still holding the cardboard once the cotton fragment is in you vagina take the cardboard that will still be within you hand and trow it out.
Once you do it once you will get it.
Good Luck!.
You insert the cardboard but don't give up it. It's just to make it easier for insertion as a see of cotton by itself can be uncomfortable. This extra cardboard tube is maybe freshly the plunger to push the tampon out of the plastic. Otherwise that sounds weird. Ask an adult feminine who can actually SEE it. I'm confused. what brand did you buy? the cardboard is probibly the applicator so insert the whole article and push the bottom half of the cardboard this will insert the tampon then purely pull out the cardboard after the tampon is in the you should be fine. Do you enjoy an older woman you could ask? im really not sure why you have plastic and cardboard...
the cardboard tube IS the applicator, you don't buy a separate applicator, suggest you read the instructions a bit more cautiously, or have your mom show you how it works. The cardboard part is in attendance to help you insert the tampon in the right place. Once the cotton tampon is within, remove the cardboard applicator..
they usually come already inside the applicator...you dont put them in the applicator.
maybe you get the cardboard applicator... If there's a plastic applicator, there shouldn't be any cardboard...
Talk to your mother or school nurse.

Dont be confused to ask about these things with them. Someone should hold told you all of this before.

:(.
Maybe you get a cardboard tampon. Usually plastic tamps. don't come with cardboard..I'm confused!..* Take the cardboard out!
