Answers:
You can start using tampons as soon as you feel comfortable enough using them!. Otherwise, opt for pads instead!.

How are tampons better!? Well they are more convenient, especially when you do sports, swimming or if you move around a lot!. Also, it helps avoid rashes that could often be caused by pads (from the humidity)!.

However, tampons do have its risks, and that is if you use maxi tampons when you do not bleed enough!. This means you are basically drying your vagina to its core, and this could cause TSS (Toxic Shock Syndrome)!. You can read more about this in the inside label of any tampon container!. Another cause for this is not changing your tampon regularly!.

Thankfully super maxi tampons has been removed and banned to prevent TSS to occur, but this does not mean that the risk is not out there!.

When you are ready to use a tampon, just remember to breathe, relax, ask questions and don't be embarrassed to do so!. If you stiff up too much, the application would hurt more than it should, so just relax!

Tip: Apply the tampon right after shower, it's so much easier to apply the tampon compared to later on when your vagina is dryer!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

i was 13 when i first started using them!. Ya i was scared too but its really nothing to be scared of!. Once you use them it should feel like you are using nothing!. If it hurts or feels uncomfortable take it out and try putting in a new one!. Also if it hurts putting it in try using lubricant that will ease some pain!.
advice: i use tampons all the time but i always use those extra extra thin pads just for back up!. (in case my period is heavy or if i'm unable to change tampon) I've always done that and i feel it helps alot!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

well first of all, it depends when you feel comfortable enough to start using them, not your age really!. since you say you're scared, i'd probably wait a little longer if i was you!. some people only use tampons when they swim, but others use them constantly!. it really just depends how you feel about it!. they aren't bad, but it is nerve racking the first time, and make sure you are calm and relaxed when you do decide to use one!. that will make it that much easier!. also there can be health risks involved when using tampons improperly, research on that to get a better understanding!. hope this helps you!Www@Answer-Health@Com

trust me it's worth it and don't be scared it doesn't hurtWww@Answer-Health@Com
