Answers:
No, it's not a good idea to use Vaseline as it is petroleum based and can stick to the walls of your vagina and cause infections, if you have some you can use some K Y jelly on the tip to make it glide in easier!. Relax and take deep breaths

No!. It's not healthy and it will make the tampon unable to absorbWww@Answer-Health@Com

Yes it is fine!. Also, purchase the smallest tampon available!. I do believe they have starter tampons for young ladies in your position/situation!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

vaseline will stop the tampon from doing it's proper job of sucking up the blood!.
Try useing baby oil!. put it on your vaginal area, not the tampon!. You could also may be useing the wrong tampon ( for wrong days flow)!.

Or even KY jelly would be good to use to lubricate your vaginal area and it's safe and clean!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

NO!!! vasoline is NOT made to go inside a female's body at all for any reason!Www@Answer-Health@Com

NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
youll get an infection!Www@Answer-Health@Com

uhh i wouldn't try that if it's you're first time!. just my advice!.!.!.i haven't really heard of that!. but what helps is if you get the tip of the applicator wet while the tampon's still inside!. it's easier than you think!.!.!.you just have to !.!.!.!.do it lolWww@Answer-Health@Com

dont do it!. its unhealthy!. just get a smaller tampon if your having trouble with itWww@Answer-Health@Com

no, don't use vaseline!. the blood won't be absorbed and you'll just end up with a big mess!. try tampax pearl!. they have very smooth, plastic applicators and they just slide right in!. i've never had a problem with tampax and would recommend it to anyone! good luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com

What!?!?!? NOT AT ALL!.

It doesnt hurt all that bad, you just gotta relax your muscles!. Vaseline is oil based meaning

1!. It will contradict the tampons purpose
2!. Hard as sh*t to get out of your vagina!.


Bottom line is please dont do it or you will regret it very badly!Www@Answer-Health@Com

I honestly don't think you should have to put any kind of lubrication on it!. I read the little packet when i first started using tampons and it says to kind squat and lean over a little with your legs spread, of course!. Try it out it works!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

No, no vaseline!. Try using tampons with a "smooth glide " type applicators!.!.!.!.!.those are usually alot easier to insert!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

no dont beleive anyoen who says yes!. its bad!. jsut use playtex sport regular, its good cuz its small and easy to use!Www@Answer-Health@Com

I assure you there is NO PROBLEM putting vaseline on the tip!.

Are you using ones with an applicator!? If so, then the answerers who say "it will affect the absorbency" are wrong!.

If you are using ones without applicators, it STILL won't affect it absorbing your blood, as it "fans" out when its inside of you!.

Try using Tampax Pearl Lites, its very slender and has a plastic applicator!. I LOVE them!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

OK all you people giving thumbs down need to hush!everybodys bodies are different!.
I am 26 years old and i occassionally use vaseline to insert tampons if my vaginal wall is dry!. vaseline is an inert materail and will not cause a reaction or infection in the body!. ive been doing this for years and its worked out fine for me!. best thing is to relax and a little vaseline and you'll be fine!. =)
