Answers:
As long as you've started your period you're old enough!. I started when I was about 10 too!. Granted, it could hurt a lot and probably will at first, but they are so much more comfortable after a while!. If you look inside the box they have a sheet that tells you and shows you pictures of how to do it!. Make sure you put it in far enough because it can be very uncomfortable if you dont!.

use tampons when ur ready, get slender ones, to put it in you put the large part of the applicator in (the part that has the actual tampon in it) until you can only see the plunger (do this with a mirror at hand) and when youve put it in far enough just push the plunger as far as t will go, pull the applicator out and presto! welcome to the wonderful world of tampons!!!Www@Answer-Health@Com

10 years old is way too young to be using a tampon!.

I know pads aren't fun!. Make sure you are using a good name brand with wings, and you can use personal wipes to help you feel cleaner!.

You and your mom should talk to your doctor about why you should not use them at your age!. This would be a good time to educate yourself about your health!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

why would we report you!?!?!?
there's nothing wrong with your question!
and i personally think it's fine if you use tampons at your age, as long as you know what you're doing and are safe
make sure to read everything on the instruction sheet in the tampon box or if you don't have the sheet (or even if you do) you can go to www!.tampax!.com or www!.beinggirl!.com to get more info!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

You can start using them now, but use the ones that are made especially for those who have a petite body structure [[I believe they're called Playtex Slimfits]]!. When you buy them, they'll have detailed instructions and a diagram inside!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

They have extra slim ones meant for teens!. The package explains how to insert, it takes practice though and you may waste a few as you are learning!. Make sure to change them very often and you will be fine!Www@Answer-Health@Com

tampons arnt a great use especially at your age!. just to let you know they can cause blood clots and i wouldnt advise you to use them there not recommanded by doctors!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

When I was that age, tampons scared me!.

I suggest you keep using pads!. Tampons are way too dangerous for a ten year old!. Talk to your doctor about this!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

i dont think your too younge!. because i hate pads too!. just talk with your mom or a female with experience!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

yes u can use them!.!. i started using them when i was 11 so its safe


Most of us will try to use a tampon at some time, so it's important to know how to insert a tampon the right way!. It might seem tricky at first, but after trying several times, tampon insertion becomes as easy as putting on a glove!.

The key is to RELAX! Worrying about it may make you tense, making insertion even harder!. Read the package instruction leaflet carefully, and practice inserting a tampon during your period when your flow is moderate to heavy!. The tampon should glide in easily!. Lubricating the rounded end of the tampon applicator with a water-based gel for the first few tries can also be helpful!. And by the way, don't use a petroleum-based jelly!.



These instructions should make first time tampon insertion easier:

1!. First, look at the tampon!. The larger outer tube that holds the tampon itself at the very end is the top
