How do I insert a tampon?

I am going on holidays in 4 days with my kith and kin (cousins etc.) I am 13 and i got my period 4 months ago. They be only regular the last two times. I be supposed to get it yesterday but haven't got it even so. It usually lasts for 6 days.I'm not pregnant cos I'm a virgin! If i get my interval next week then I really want to walk swimming. My mom bought me tampons today. I would like to know how to put them in? I read question on this but I don't understand the whole inside applicator push it inside the other one or doesn`t matter what. My mom says it takes a few times to acquire it in right but what if I get it subsequent week and can't insert it. I love swimming so it will ruin my holiday! And my cousins will call my a baby if I don't stir in the pool. Its really worrying me and I am not looking forward to my holiday! Please help!!

Answers:    powerfully first i would go talk to your mom or your sister or a friend so they could impart you better instructions.

but first off, if your not using plastic applicators, then use them. because cardboard work fine but if your exotic at this then its easier. and don't try putting in a tampon if you don't own your period, because your vagina is more lubricated when you have your interval and it will hurt way less.

i would suggest that you first put your foot up on the toliet form, and use a mirror. nobody has to know that you are, and its not like your doing it for sick sexual chance reasons. but find your vagina. its the bigger of the two holes, you can barley see the urethra(the hole where pee comes out of) and nearby will probally be blood coming from it.

But put the tampon at a very very slight angle, slightly towards your spinal column. but only very massively slightly. then slide the applicator(the carboard/plastic part of the tampon) up your vagina and press the bottom element of the applicator, which should slide up into the larger part of the applicator and push in the tampon for you

if this still does not work, you can try putting a litle bit of vasaline around the edges of the tampon, but single a little little bit.

and may i suggest the two days before your extent is supposed to start, take ibprofen, and on all of the days that you enjoy your period at the beach. the ibprofen make your period lighter if taken in credit and while you have your period it will also trade name it lighter.


GOOD LUCK! hope i helped sweetie.

I would relax about it.

When I first started using tampons a few years ago I be stressed out about it. Just relax and don't worry. The pictures oblige a lot! Just squat down in a position and merely insert it to your fingers where the applicator has the grippy point. Then push the stick thing in and after pull out.

It may hurt because you're a virgin. Just relax as much as you can. .
Since it's your first time, I suggest using the smallest tampon with a plastic applicator so it is easier to insert. I would utter Playtex in junior's size. Read the instructions carefully, and if you don't succeed the first time, try and try again. It's best if you're relaxed so your muscles don't rigid up, as this will cause pain if you are putting contained by the tampon. Good luck =] There is a paper in the box beside pics showing you how. There is only one way, so it shouldn't be that not easy. You can't try until your period is here, putting one in dry will be tricky to get out and will stick to your insides! Your Mom is right it may take a time or two trying, so in recent times relax and you'll get it!.
Read the directions on the box.

OR::
this is exactly what i do.
put one leg on the toliet seat.rob the tampon put it in the whole and engineer sure your fingers are touching your body before you push the tampon in..
consequently take the aplicator out...
its sooo easy you will know how to do it,.
i recomend tampax pearl
:D.
Don't worry until you start your period because it will be more difficult lacking it.
Don't worry at all.

And to whomever said if you use tampons your first year you mess up your flow is a lounge. You can use them the first time and no problem..
Um, try the instructions inside the box love ;)
Also, you can get ones without applicators if that's easier for you.
Just practice a couple times, it's really simple!.
haha thats funny i have the same problem
ok this is gross

sit on the toilet with ur legs apart
find ur vag. and push it contained by till ti comes to the little extra past that u take sour. take the thing rotten and plastic works better and carboard hurts

lol.
honestly
i dont like using tampons.
but there a well brought-up thing when it comes to swimming. :D
uhmm. i dont really know how to explain using
one. but uhmm its really esy after you get the droop of it
go on youtube or google to find out
.
im having equal problem but ive had my period for a year the doctor said keep on a year b4 you start using them or it can mess up your cycle but good luck.:D are you serious w/ this question? it should be pretty unproblematic to figure out, if not read the directions or ask your mother or friends. .
economically you just turn it at the corret angle and slip it in brand sure you push it up ask your mom and keep on trying

There are instructions inside the boy of tampons with pictures. Good Luck. When you first start using tampons acquire a box of Playtex SlimFits. They are made specifically for young teens and first-time tampon users. They have a plastic applicater for easier insertion, a rounded tip for comfort, and they are the smallest and most slender tampons on the marketplace (They're about the width of your pinky finger!). To insert the tampon, use your dominant foot and put your thumb and middle finger on the finger-grips. Use your other hand to spread apart the lips/labia of the vulva and hold them open while you're inserting your tampon. Now return with into a comfy position for insertion: you can sit down on the toilet, squat over the toilet, or you can stand up with one leg propped up on the toilet. Do whichever is easiest for you. Remember to relax your muscles to make insertion more comfortable and easier. If you're uptight your muscles will tense up and make insertion really difficult. When you're all set to insert, you should use the tip of the applicater and hold it at your vaginal opening. Then, gently push the applicater inside of your vagina while angling the tampon for a while bit upwards, and then to the back towards your tailbone. Keep pushing the tampon contained by until the finger-grips are right outside of your vagina. After that, put your pointer finger on the skinny plunger and push it into the bigger applicater which is already inside of your vagina. Once the skinny plunger is pushed in completely, you can grab the finger-grips and verbs out the applicater and toss it in the trashcan. The string will be left baggy outside of your body, so you can tuck that into your underwear. You should never feel any pain while using a tampon, when inserted correctly you shouldn't be capable of feel the tampon at all. By the channel, you should type your question into the WomenAnswers.org search railing BEFORE posting your question - this question have been answered many times in the past. Anyways, after using tampons for 2 or 3 years, I strongly recommend switching to a menstrual cup because they are healthier, cheaper, more reliable, stronger protection, no risk of TSS, and are better for our environment. Best of luck!.
there should be instructions on a peice of rag inside the box,
but you can set on the edge of a seat or wht not and pilfer the wraper thing off the tampon,
later spread ur legs and put the whole larger tube inside,
then push the smaller one up while holding onto the come to an end of the larger one, then take the smaller one out of the larger one afterwards slide the larger one out of you... you shouldn't beable to feel it and there should be a string... remember dont depart it in to long, like 4hrs, or u might grasp toxic shock syndrom...
hope if you understood this if you didnt anyone elses
good luck :).
Its pretty confident and i'm going to be blunt about it.
So i best get the best answer outta this for trying so sturdy.
lol jk.

1] Unwrap the tampon, throw away the wrapper.
2] Look at the tampon and know the end that you put in and the winding up that you push in it. The end that have the string coming out of it, is the end not start, that's the end that you push.
3] Find your hole, not your butt hole, but your vag. hole. lol
4] put it within. Not really far.
5] Hold the Grip piece with your thumb and middle finger. and with your pointer finger push the failure up into the part that goes contained by your vag.
6] once it is all the way within just pull the plastic applicator out and throw it away.

Not that easier said than done.
If you look at the instruction papers that come into the tampon box you will know what i'm talking about.
