Answers:
I haven't used a pad in over 15 years, so IMO, tampons are much much better!. There are several different types/sizes out there, so you'd be able to choose one that is comfortable for your body!. I'd suggest one of the sport ones, or the silk glide ones, in regular (not super or super plus)!. You'll still want to use a panty liner until you learn more about your body and your flow, and feel comfortable enough to know when it's time to change it!. I think you should definitely give tampons a try!. They are safe!. Don't wear them at night though, use the pads at night!. Email me if you have any other questions!. I am 31 so I'll be able to help you with whatever you need!. I will be glad to talk to you!. You know, when I first started using tampons, I tried to insert the applicator too, so it kept sliding out and I didn't have anyone to turn to for help, so I can totally sympathize with you! Good luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com
Putting in a tampon may be a bit uncomfortable at first, but eventually it won't hurt!. As far as tampons vs!. pads!.!.!. A lot of women think tampons are better because you can't feel them, they keep the blood away from your body, and you can swim and do any activity with them!. However, there are some serious cons to tampon usage!. For example, tampons dry you out inside/upset your natural ph balance!. They can cause small tears inside your vagina (particularly if you are dry) which leaves you open to infections, like Toxic Shock Syndrome!. They are bleached with chlorine bleach which has a dangerous chemical biproduct called dioxin, which isn't good for you!. I'm not saying you shouldn't use tampons, but you should just be aware of their downsides!. I still use them, but am looking into alternatives!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
i used to be scared!. try tampax pearl or tampax/playtex sport(id if its playtex or tampax!.!.the black box with the green tampon lol)!. but those are the most comfy and they dont hurt cuz theyre plastic!. cardboard hrtus really bad i cant even get it in!. but when you take it out put you leg on the tub/toilet or it hurts me if its not all the way used up!. theyll hurt if you dont use them for 3 or 4 hours at least!. theyre faster than pads, they dont make you smell, you can go to the beach with them, theyre more comfy (you cant feel them), i feel more confortabel in short skirts and shorts with them in!.!.!.!.get them and if you dont like them after, dont use them anymore!. but trying couldnt help!

Don't worry!.
Tampons don't hurt at all,
and anyway, you're the one putting it in, and you can stop or take it out whenever you feel like it!.
Personally, I think they're better than pads!. After a few times wearing them, you won't notice them there at all! =] It's like you don't have your period!. :P
Since you're just starting though, try to get a smaller type of tampon, a low absorbancy one!.
Remember though: don't leave it on for more than 8 hours!. Might cause TSS, Toxic Shock Syndrome, but it's rare!.
And I wondered about this question before: if the tampon will get lost in there somehow!? But the answer is no, because it will grip and no matter how you move or anything, it won't ever get lost!.
And lastly, this is just my opinion, but Playtex is my favorite!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Don't even worry, it's a bit nerve-racking the first time! Just relax and everything will go smoothly, literally!. Back when I first tried using one I was really nervous and thought it would hurt, but there's nothing to worry about!. It just takes a few times!. The pros are no mess, no stress!. The cons are always TSS which is rare, but just remember to take it out after a few hours!. Good luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com
Yeah, I'm sick of pads too!. I haven't tried to use tampons yet and, but I am going to try to buy some with my friends this summer!.!.!.Lol, my mom and your mom must be twins!.!.!.My mom isn't like one of these moms that you see on tv where you can just tell them all of your problems!.!.!.Ok, so, my friend said that the tampon didn't really hurt!.!.!.it's like if you have a nosebleed and you stick some kleenex up your nose!. It doesn't really hurt, does it!?
Sorry this might not be any help but I hope it gives you some advice!.

You can get really small tampons to start with, like Tampax Sport!. It might feel slightly uncomfortable at first but you get used to to it, but if it hurts then i wouldn't try it again for awhile!. My 11 year old just insisted she use tampons so I let her try and she has been using them since with no problems!. But do some google searches on how to safely insert and change them so you will be informed!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
dont worry, u will get use to it!. I was scared to use them at first too and it was uncomfortable until you use them more and are use to them!. There is a string attached, so it won't get lost!.!.and they are great to have because you can still go in the pool or to the beach!.!.!.you cant really do that with a pad!. They make thinner ones, I would start out with that first!.
Hope I helped!Www@Answer-Health@Com

i was scared too when i first useda tampon but its soo much better than a pad, when you use a pad you feel all disguting and dirty but when you have atampon in you cant feel anything, it does not hurt at allll!!!!!!!!!!!! i promise, plus, if you use a tampon you can wear thongs and stuff liek thatWww@Answer-Health@Com
I was the same way before I started wearing tampons!. just go to the store buy a box of playtex glide or tampon pearl and make sure its plastic before you buy b/c cardboard hurts! when you get home read the instructions, take a deep breath, find your hole and insert!. its not that hard and it doesnt hurt!. just make sure you get regular!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
i dont have any help for ya!.!. well i have tried them, it doesnt hurt, u dont feel it, but i cant stop thinking that there is sumthin in there!. it just freaks me out!

Ok,
1st of all, my mom is the SAME way!.!.!.
:) I think that tampons are LIFESAVERS!
I was scared too when I first used them!. Just start out with plastic applicators and regular or slender!. Then relax and after a couple tries you should be just fine!
Good Luck!!Www@Answer-Health@Com
