How best to use tampons?
I'm a 16-year-old girl who's had my period for about 2.5 years now and have never used a tampon. Because I feel completely uncomfortable just thinking about inserting one down there.
But now I (maybe) have the problem that I might get my period tomorrow, and we want to go to the pool. Since I really want to go, it would be rather problematic without a tampon for my period. (But I'm already a week late…)
What's the best way to introduce it if I get my period? I have virtually no courage and no idea how to do it properly.
Hi dear questioner 🙂
In the beginning I had my difficulties with the introduction of a tampon, but with time you get a feeling for it and once you have the technique, it is no problem anymore;-)
I would definitely advise you to mini-tampons first. From o.b. there are those who are especially suitable for young girls / women and I can highly recommend you:http://www.ob.de/procomfortr-0
But how exactly does this work with introduction?
There are different positions that can facilitate the insertion of the tampon. One way, for example, would be if you put a leg on the edge of the bathtub. You could also help if you were lying flat on your back on a comfortable base or in your bed and would try to introduce the tampon. The third possibility would be the position in the hockey. To have a closer look, you can also use a small hand mirror for help. That sometimes a little bit twitches when inserting the tampon is quite normal. You shouldn’t have severe pain. So try to practice carefully if you should have your days next time. If you feel that it should not go any further, try to change the direction; but only if you have no severe pain. You need, just at the beginning, a lot of patience and a little fingertip feeling. You can’t leave your head in any case just because it didn’t work right away at the beginning. It takes some time and exercise until it works and it will sooner or later also do with you. At any rate try to be relaxed and breathe deep beforehand. This often helps miracles;-)
Maybe the video on this link can help you.

Sometimes it’s just a head thing that doesn’t work right now. Do not try to put yourself under stress and pressure too much, because it often works the least. I’m sure it’ll work with you soon too:-)
What to consider when swimming with tampons?
When you go swimming during the days, it often leads to a somewhat mulsifying feeling that is quite normal. But in general it is naturally possible and should not be an obstacle for you to go swimming. You should note that swimming during the period does not lead to any embarrassing moment:
Tip 1:
The shortness of the tampon can be easily shortened with a scissors and so well within the bikini pouch or Place a swimsuit. But don’t shorten too much, otherwise you might not get the tampon right out. Alternatively, you can also hide the cord between your labia.
Tip 2:
Do not wear white or bright bikini or bikini on this day. Bathing suit. Sure is safe! If you still feel insecure, you can wear a swim short on your bikini pouch. I’m sure you’ve seen more often in some girls in the swimming pool. But if guys find this sexy, I doubt it. So wear that where you feel most comfortable in it.
Tip 3:
Take a few tampons to trade with and change them if you’re after. Just go to the toilet and check if your tampon is full and needs to be swapped.
After swimming, I would definitely recommend changing the tampon, simply for the reason that it will mostly be fully absorbed. It will be a mixture of blood and a little water. But in any case, this will not be fully absorbed with water. This is just too far in your vagina. So you don’t have to worry about it 🙂
Don’t let the fun swim away from your days. It’s normal if you have a somewhat sympathetic feeling at the beginning, but you’ll see after a short time that it won’t be a problem at all 🙂
I hope I could help you a bit and wish you all the best! If you have any questions or need help, you can send me a friend request at any time and send me a personal message 🙂

Take the smallest size for the first time and helped me that there are tampons with insertion aid.
Good luck
So I always do it so that I take the tampon, pull the ribbon out/and then press it in with the finger until I touch where. Don’t worry, it’s nowhere. You know you’ve introduced the Tanpon right if you can go or just don’t feel it. If you feel him, he’s not right in or full.
Enjoy swimming:)
It’s not worse than if you’re pushing a cup in your ass.
Practice… wet your finger with spit and introduce it… then you know where the tampon must go …
I don’t think I’d like to try it out in this way…
Do you have to decide – but in the end it is exactly what you want to do if you want to introduce the tampon – just that is still in front of your finger!
And no, this has nothing to do with SB and will also trigger 0 sexual feelings!
Can you think about it by yourself?
