Answers:
have you ever noticed when you shower you flow stops for awhile well same applys to swimming!. I would tell you mom you really need to let her know just in case you might have a problem with TSS use the slims to start with!. But you grasp it with you middle finger and thumb you can sit on the toliet on insert aim for your lower back!. if it has and applicator you push that with your number 1 finger!. I would change it every couple hours depending on flow!. But another good product that i use is called Instead No worries about TSS and you can have them in up to 12 hours depends on your flow!. The don't absorbe the hold the flow!. I have a neice that is in sports and was always having problems with her tamp so I gave her some and she won't go back to tamps or pads!. But seriouly you should check with your mom first cause this is a part of your life most moms like to be involved in so they can help you with any questions or problems!.
And also make sure you are using the correct kind light, med, heavy, now you being so young you prob don't need to go to heavy!.
Hope this helps you!. and you can look online on the website like playtex!.com or whatever they should have a website and on playtex i think they have like an informational kit you can get and has samples that come with it!. GOOD LUCK!!Www@Answer-Health@Com

don't make it so complicated!. yes, it is easier to swim with your period with a tampon!. maybe not the best time to be using it for the first time but !. !. !. gotta happen some time right!? well, if you get the kind of tampon with an applicator, hold the middle-ish area (there should be some sort of grip) with your thumb and middle finger!. hold your lips apart with your other hand and push the thicker end of the applicator into your vagina!. once your finger and thumb holding the grip part touch your lips, put your pointer finger on the end of the skinny end and push until that finger meets up with your thumb and middle finger!. this means that the skinny half is all the way in the thicker half, which means the tampon is now inside you!. pull out the applicator, DO NOT PULL THE STRING!. if it's plastic throw it away if its cardboard you can flush it!. the string should hang out a few inches!. read the package but generally tampons should be in for 6-8 hours, no longer!. when it's time to take it out, hover over the toilet and pull the string steadily until the tampong comes out then drop it and flush!. really easy!. if you try to take it out early, it may hurt!. if you've had it in 8 hours and it still hurts to take out, you probably need to try a lower absorbency level!.
if you use the kind that doesn't have an applicator (it'll just look like a tampon wrapped in plastic) unrap it, the end where the string comes out should flare a little!. push the tampon into your vagina and use your middle finger (because it's the longest) to push it in as far as possible!. make sure the string hangs out!. it's really easy so try not to stress about it!.
as for talking to you mom, you don't actually need to tell her unless you need her to buy them for you or because you like to keep her in the loop!. just tell her that you want to try tampons because you're sick of wearing diapers!. it shouldn't be a big deal!.
good luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Ok, first off read the thing that comes with the tampons!
But just unwrap it, then grab it at the bottom with your thumb and index finger!. Make sure you are relaxe, its hard to get a tampon in when your muscles are tense!. Then just slide it in going at an upward angle!.

To get it out just pull the string down from the same aangle you put it in!.

Change at least every 8 hours!.

Just say hey mom, I wanna go swimming, but im on my period, and see her reaction!. If she doesnt suggest tampons then you suggest them!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

http://tampax!.com/howtouse!.php!?topic=2 they have good instructions!. How to remove them is at the end of the little slide show to the right of the screen!.
You can leave a tampon in for up to 8 hours!. If you leak through a tampon in less han 4 hours, than move up one absorbancy!. If you leave a tampon in for 8 hours and it still has some white cotton showing after you remove it, then move down one absorbancy!.
I reccomend trying tampax pearl slenders at first!. Read through that website ( http://tampax!.com ), it has alot of information!. And try http://www!.beinggirl!.com

My mom offered me tampons, so i don't have any epirience with asking my mom for permission!. Just tell her your sick of pads ( i hate em!! ) and ask if you can try tampons!. Most moms are fine with it, others dont let their daughters use tampons because their afraid it will effect their virginity!. If your mom is concerned about this, then ask her to talk to your doctor!. ( ALL doctors know that tampons dont have anything to do with virginity, and will straighten it out with your mom )!.
tamponsa re really hard to figure out at first!. Just make sure your relaxed, pick a day when there is nothing going on and you have nothing to worry about, becaues it may seem like your relaxing as much as you can but your really not!. Good luck:)Www@Answer-Health@Com

use tampax pearl tampons - they are super easy to put in and about your mom!. either tell her or dont!.!.!. don't stress over it for a long time she should respect your desicion!Www@Answer-Health@Com
