How do you insert a tampon!?

You may be worried and nervous about using your first tampon!. Talk to your mom or a friend who has used tampons!. It is important to first learn how to use a tampon and then, just relax! The more you relax, the easier the insertion will be!. When you are nervous, your muscles tense up, making insertion even harder!. For your first time, you may want to try using a tampon when your menstrual flow is heavy; this should allow the tampon to glide in more easily!. Choose the smallest size tampon for the first time!. By following these simple guidelines, and those that come with your package of tampons, your first experience with tampons should be easy!.

1!. Sit or stand in a comfortable position!. Some women prefer to place one leg on the toilet seat or tub, while others prefer to squat down!. After you find a position that is most comfortable for you, hold the tampon with the fingers that you write with!. Hold the middle of the tampon, at the spot where the smaller, inner tube inserts into the larger, outer tube!. Make sure the string is visible and pointing away from your body!.
2!. With your other hand, open the labia (the folds of skin around the vaginal opening) and position the tampon in the vaginal opening!.
3!. Gently push the tampon into the opening, aiming for the small of your back!. Stop when your fingers touch your body and the applicator, or outer tube, is completely inside the vagina!.
4!. Once the applicator or outer tube is inside of you, use your index finger to push the inner tube (the tube where the removal string is visible) through the outer tube!. This pushes the tampon into the vagina!.
5!. Once the inner tube is all the way in, use your thumb and middle finger to remove the applicator or outer tube!. Make sure that the string hangs outside of the vaginal opening!. Later, when you are ready to remove the tampon, hold the string and gently pull it downward until the entire tampon is out!.

If the tampon is inserted correctly, you should not feel it!. If you feel uncomfortable in any way, you may have inserted the tampon incorrectly or the tampon may not be placed far enough into the vagina!. If this happens, just remove the tampon and start again with a new tampon!. Remember that practice makes perfect!. If you don't get it on the first try, your second try will most likely be successful!. Instead of getting frustrated and giving up, relax and try again!Www@Answer-Health@Com
