ok well i'm 14 and i've been on my period for 2 yrs. and so i've always used pads. but my periods are kinda heavy so i get thick ones. i've asked my mom if i could start using tampons because of sports like volleyball (spandex) and basketball. my mom said yes so i'm getting ready to start and me and my mom are going to go out and buy some soon. i need help on if its going to hurt or not. i've tried on one before and it hurt, but i think i put it in wrong. can you help me on how to put it on. btw! my mom's side of the family that i am close 2 none of them wear tampons only pads, i only have one friend that is close to that wears tampons. help!!!
sorry its so long! thanks for all your help ladies!
 
Yeah i'm 13, and I have been using tampons since my first period (i've had like 3 or 4) and it doesn't hurt at all, i didn't even have to read the directions. a lot of people I know don't like em because they think it's gross and are scared or whatev, but it feels much better than wearing pads and feeling like you're in a diaper.
 
it usually only hurts when you don't put it in far enough...and don't worry, you can't put it in too far... just follow the directions the box gives you and you should be fine good luck
 
In all the boxes of tampons there is a paper insert that tells you exactly how to put on in. If you are a virgin then you should start with the smallest size (regular) and work your way up to wearing ones that a super. Also if you are a virgin they may be uncomfortable at first but you get use to them. I wore tampons 2 years before I ever had sex so it doesn't really matter.
