Yes, you will be able to feel a "heartbeat" or pulse down there-No worries.

I physically couldn't wear them until i was 15 or 16- the doctor told me i was too small and that i would grow with time when i was your age.

USE PEARL by tampax- they have plastic applicators that are SO much more comfortable and easier to insert. Use the purple kind- they are for juniors or people who are just starting out.

don't worry it takes some getting used to. i was in the same position as you less than a year ago

just keep tryin, when i first tried i kept putting them in wrong, if it feels weird at all take it out and try again. you shouldnt be able to feel it. and the heartbeat thing sounds like your nervous or something idk

sux 4 u hah

It happens to everyone. Dont worry. Oh and i wouldnt use tampons if you just started your period..... Even if you do play sports hun, stick to pads. :)

you have to relax your muscles. you might be nervous or something and you arent gonna get it right the couple of first times you try, you have to keep practicing.

Honestly, you have to just get used to them and dont be scared.. just make sure you place it far enough inside and if its still unconfertable take it out and try again.. Dont worry soon you wont even feel them :)

That 'heartbeat' is normal, it's just your muscles contracting because it's new. Don't be surprised if you get it in and it gets pushed back out. It happens. You can't really hurt yourself and insert it too far so just shove it up there. I know it's not the most elequant way to say it but there isn't much more to do. Try angling it up just a little though, you might be hitting a wall, and since most everything there is muscular, that could be why you feel the contraction.

dont pressure yourself. might be vaginitis, when your brain sends messages to your vagina that makes it get tense and stuff, which may be causing teh pulse.

u prob are not pushin it in all the way.. u need to push the applicator almost all the way in until its maybe 2 or 3 cen. out the body.. when its in all the way u wont feel anything

I had the same problem years ago , I found putting Vaseline on the applicator help it go in much better. had no problems after that.

Omg you asked your Doc?
Sux 4 u haha
