Answers:
Yes, Definitely use Playtex or Always tampons!. Use lites first until you get used to inserting and removing them!. Allow enough time for the tampon to be soaked or it will pull at your vaginal walls when you are trying to remove it!. Do not leave them in for more than 4 hour max in order not to get TSS!. Also, if your period is longer than 5 days alternate between tampons and pads because you could cause small lacerations from constant insertion and removal!. Hope this helps ;)Www@Answer-Health@Com

Ok well I'm going to be different and tell you how much I LOVE Tampax Pearl!. I've used Playtex and everytime taking them out is so painful and irritating! Pearl is the only kind I use and they offer the best protection!. They have a braid at the end to reduce leakage as well!. And no, you don't need to remove every time you use the washroom!. Only when you feel it's full!. I hope that helps and I hope you'll try it!. It's been a lifesaver for me- all the other tampons suck after using Pearl!Www@Answer-Health@Com

I've used both and both are not great mine leak through!. But I use the playtex gentle glide!. Yes plastic applicaters are the best they are so easy to use!. If your periods are light then use a light to regular tampon first!. If it's heavy use a super!. But I would go with the Playtex!. Once it's in you it expands to fit your body!. Tampax doesn't do that!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I think neither for your first tampon experience i recommend O!.B!. they are much smaller and an easier transition for you!. what you need as far as flow goes depends on your body some girls can use the big huge super tampons and never flinch i am not one of those girls for me just looking at super hurts!. They do make slim fit tampons and just pay attention to your body if it hurts then take it out!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Out of those two, I prefer the Playtex Gentle Glide!. Yes, they both have plastic applicators and yes they come in lites!. Try a lite one first and when it gets heavier just use as large/as absorben a tampon as you need for your flow!. I personally prefer o!.b!. tampons because they're really small and super easy to insert, although my best friend prefers the Playtex Gentle Glide!. I've tried both and haven't had problems with either, but I'm never going back to anything else since I tried o!.b!. Best of luck!

okay i love the playtex gentle glide, definietly go for those!. they are the most comfortable and easiest to use!. i always thought tampons were hard to use before i used these!.!. seriously get them!. and yes plastic is wayyy easier for insertionWww@Answer-Health@Com

I hate the pearls - I use the Playtex glides too! :)

They have a "teen" one that's slimmer, try that first (with a pad) and if you bleed through it, use a regular!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

i rarely use tampons so as for the best brand my opinion is probably not important but yes you should start of with teen/lites and just be sure to wear a thin pad underneath just incase you have a leak!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

dude use playtex all the way!. plastic applicators are so much better!. I wouldn't worry to much about rather it was light or regular!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
