Inserting a tampon-- can't do it?

I've tried really really really hard and the best I've be able to do is catch it almost in but still almost a millimeter of it still out. I'm using OB regular(the smallest size) and I can't figure out what to do. My mom showed me what to do but it still doesn't work-- and it really hurts whenever I try. I know that I should point it to the lower rear, but i just can't achieve it any farthur.

Can the gyn tell from the exam..?


OBs can be especially difficult, especially for a newbie. The biggest problem is that it is dry cotton, it can't slide. Try platex, or the like, w/a smooth plastic applicator. And don't practice when you're not in truth on your period. Being on your time helps it slide, if you know what i imply. And try different positions. Squatting, standing w/ 1 leg up, or sitting on the toilet. And doing it in front of a mirror might sustain at first. Keep in mind, it must not merely disappear inside of you, but it needs to acquire situated a full finger's length inside to be worn correctly and comfortably.

Hi honey, okay...Pearl Tampax to me is the best and is very unforced to insert. Here goes, first, run a deep breath and relax. It's much easier to insert a tampon when you're relaxed, it take practice, most Women need a few tries since they can comfortably and easily insert a tampon.
1) Get into a comfortable position. Most Women any sit on the toilet with knees apart, squat slightly beside knees bent or stand with one foot on the toilet form.
2) Insert the applicator. Hold the outer insertion tube by the finger grip with your thumb and middle finger. With the removal string flaccid down, insert the tip of the applicator into your ''private'' at a slight upward angle.
3) Push the tampon inside. Push the inner tube with your pointer finger adjectives the way into the outer tube, or use your other mitt to push the inner tube.
4) Remove the inner and outer applicator tubes at the same time. The tampon should very soon be comfortably inside you, with the removal string baggy outside your body. When A tampon is inserted properly, you shouldn't feel any discomfort.
If you grain uncomfortable, the tampon may not be placed far ample inside. If this happens, remove the tampon and try again next to a new one.
