Why can I not wear tampons?!
Question: Why can I not wear tampons!?
This may sound odd, but I am really upset by this!. I have tried wearing tampons twice in my life, I'm 13!. The first time, I started sweating, I couldn't walk, I staggered round the bathroom screaming, sobbing!. I couldn't hear, and I was about to faint when I pulled it out!. After that I nearly vomitedd, and couldn't eat anything for the whole evening!. I tried again recently, the exact sam thing happened!. I was i a comfy position, I wasn't anxious, they were tiny tampons!. I don't have tss, I spoke to a nurse about that and she said it isn't caused by that!. I to a lifesaving session every friday, so i go swimming alot, but because of this i have missed important exams there etc!.!.!. please help me!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

Oh my god! That sounds something like me!. I asked a question a couple weeks ago if someone was going through the same thing I was going through, except I can't even put one in!. One time I had one halfway up and I started to gag, so hard I could barely concentrate on getting it out, and I couldn't stop shaking, and I felt nauseous and clammy for about an hour afterwards!. It was the worst experience of my life!. This one lady told me to go sit in a bathtub with a mirror and look!. And practice with your finger!. I know it sounds perverted, and I haven't tried it yet, and I'll probably never try it!. But who knows!? Maybe her advice that was supposed to help me will help you!. I've had mine for maybe three years now and I still can't get used to tampons!. I'll probably never use one until I've experienced the real thang!
Edit: I'm sorry if I came off sounding a little insensitive or perverted, but I try not to take topics like these too seriously, because then I'll start to shake a little bit!. I'm shuttering right now!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

There isn't a specific year limit to when you are able to wear tampons, so you don't have to wait! I think that you should go see a gynecologist rather than a nurse, and explain your symptoms to them!. You mentioned that you tried the small tampons, but there are specific teen tampons that are on the market, and also slim fits!. Maybe you have some sort of anxiety that something is inside of you or that you might not be able to get the tampon out!. In any case, I would say that you should go and see a gynecologist, or maybe a family doctor and they can help you out!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
hi, it shouldnt matter that you are a virgin, but it can take time for people to get used to tampons, it took me a few years especially at first as your concious a about wearing them, but you can keep persisting but dont force yourself just try and be completley relaxed when inserting it, other then that wait a while the best one o use is tampax compact because the applicator is alot smoother, the tampons you get in cellophane are difficult to use even i struggle with those and have been having periods for 10 years but dont pressure yourself into wearing them, and make sure you are putting them in far enough, but if you are certain you want to use them because of your swimming use the tampax compact they are the best ones, hope this has helped you xxWww@Answer-Health@Com
Just know that tampons aren't for everyone!. It may have not been inserted properly!. Read the directions that come in the box carefully and try again!.!.!.but if it happens every single time you use a tampon, don't use them again until you speak to a doctor!. You may be allergic to something in them!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
this is a good one,if it hurts your probably not putting them in right, it sounds gross but try using a tampon without an applicator like ob, they go in a lot easier and are a different shape so theyre way more comfortable, otherwise ask your doc if using a t with no applicator freaks you out try using some personal lubricant such as ky or astroglide just to help you get it in, when inserted properly a tampon shouldnt hurt in fact other than the string you shouldnt feel it at allWww@Answer-Health@Com
Li-lets do a tampon that comes with a little bit of lubricant in each packet!.
i couldn't use tampons either when i was younger but they were the ones that worked for me!.
just take it slow and remember if it feels at all painful or uncomfortable, all you have to do is take it out!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

this is not uncommon!. your swim instructor will understand!. really! even if you can wear a tampon, avoid going into a pool!. blood can and will go around a tampon!. just because many girls prefer to swim on their cycles doesn't mean that you have to!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
i think that your body is still too small to cope with it!.
but if you used scented tampons that could also be the reason, if so, try a regular tampon!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

try using lubricant xWww@Answer-Health@Com
maybe you just arent meant to wear them!. Some people are allergic to them!. It could be that you are a virgin!.!.!.i dunnoWww@Answer-Health@Com
You could be allergic to the material!. Please don't take the advice of the person who said to use a carrot!.!.!.you will be risking getting a major infection because carrots have all sorts of bacteria that are not supposed to go into your vagina!. And a yeast infection is soooooooo miserable!!!
As far as inserting the tampon, you need to put it in really far!. So if you are holding the applicator down at the bottom, you need to insert it all the way until your fingers are touching the outside of your vagina, that way you know you've got it in really far up!. It hurts really bad when the tampon isn't inserted far enough inside of you!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

First of all being a virgin has nothing to do with ones ability to use a tampon with the one exception of a very tight hymen which is very unusual!. Secondly, I think it was 1960 when girls were told that you couldn't use tampons until 2 years after your period started, and that is completely ridiculous, they can be used anytime after you start!. I would suggest trying several different brands and get the smallest size!. For example, Tampax are very long and narrow, OB tampons are shorter and wider!. We are all built different so not every tampon will work the same for every woman!. Last of all!.!.DO NOT USE VASELINE, that itself can cause infection and make the tampon not absorb, use a water based lubricant like KY!.
If none of these work go see your family doctor or an OB/GYN!. Even though it isn't that common, the most likely reason a tampon won't go in easily is a tight hymen and that is a small, easy procedure to correct!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

It sounds like it made you very squeamish!. Just the thought of something foreign inside your body!. It may be something you can over come if you just keep trying!. Just try not to think about it when you get it in there!. Pretend it's not there!. I had to get over something that was put inside my body and is going to stay there forever and it's at the base of the skin, I freaked for about a month, every time I seen it or touched it I felt the same feelings that you had, I would freak, but now I'm over it!.!.!.!.!. Good Luck girl, hope you get over the phobia!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
First off, don't feel weird about asking questions like that!. The only way to get answers is to ask questions!. There is no such thing as a stupid (or odd) questions, just stupid (or odd) answers!.
It could be a combination of things!. 1) Being a virgin may cause those kinds of reactions, but not that often!.!.!.to me it sounds like that's not the real culprit!. 2) You may be allergic to something that is in the cotton or the string, which seems more likely or 3) The tampon is being inserted wrong and could be hitting a nerve!. No damage, just pressure on the right nerve will do that!.
The big question is how long after you removed the tampon did you feel those symptoms!? If they went away immediately, you're probably experiencing #3, if they lingered for an hour or so longer, possibly #2!.
Either way, I'm glad you asked a nurse about it, but I would strongly advise bringing it up again with your doctor/nurse!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Who is the moron that asked if you're a virgin!? First, at 13, yeah I HOPE you're a virgin!. Second, being a virgin has NOTHING to do with wearing tampons!. What an idiot!. Anyway, there is nothing wrong with you!. When I was your age (I'm 27 now) I couldn't wear tampons, either!. Even slender or junior ones!. It was painful, they just wouldn't go in!. Your vagina is just too small right now!. Don't force it!. I know it's a pain, especially when you have to swim a lot but it's just part of nature, unfortunately!. Everyone has to understand and make adjustments (meaning swimming coaches, phys ed instructors, etc) especially when dealing with girls your age!. It's all new to you and your body is going through some major changes!. I think by the time I was 15 or 16, maybe even 14, I could wear slender tampons!. Now I wear super plus ones the first couple days of my period!. No pain or discomfort at all!. So don't worry, just give your body time to grow!. Also, when you are ready to use tampons, Vaseline always helps!. Just smear it all over the part of the tampon that you insert in yourself!. It will glide in smoothly!. Never get nervous or panicky and never continue to do something that hurts!. Also, make sure you push it in far enough (again, it should not hurt at all)!. Once it's in, if it's up there far enough, you shouldn't feel it at all!. Just make sure you leave enough string to pull it out later!. Eventually, putting them in will be no problem at all and you'll forget you're wearing one!. You're problem isn't odd at all and I don't blame you for being upset about it!. Just relax and everything will work out over time!. :)

some people just don't like them and aren't supposed to wear them!.
Maybe, deep down you were nervous, like sub consciously!.
don't worry if you can't wear them!. You don't have to, and I know many people who don't wear them!.
The whole stress of the whole thing isn't worth it!. And they are uncomfortable at the beginning anyway, your body needs to get use to them!.
And, your only 13 anyway, you have MANY years to try them!
As for the swimming, you don't need to wear one either, just make sure that you've got a towel with you when you get out of the pool!.
good luck! xWww@Answer-Health@Com
