Answers:
read the directions!. when i first tried 2 years ago when i was 12, i couldn't do it!. even when i wanted to go swimming it just wouldn't work sometimes your body's not ready for it, but don't give up!. last year i was determinded to get one in!. so i red the directions very carefully!. then i got after 5 tries hahah!. don't hurt yourself though!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Its very hard to do it wrong!. You just place it in there!. Get small sized ones in case you are afraid of taking it out while its too dry!. If you have a heavy blood flow, change them whenever you need to!. Other than that, having them in for a day doesent really matter!. I can leave one in and forget it for like 12 hours and it won't really matter!. Sometimes I bleed a lot less, so I forget!. You can get sick if you leave it in for a VERY long time, but I think you have to have it in for way more than a day to manage to do that!. It's not dangerous in any case!. If you want to be sure, change them every 4 hours or so, unless you can feel its too dry!. Pulling it out while its dry might irritate your skin down there!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I never really liked them so i don't use them so don't think it's silly to be nervous!. First off you should never wear one longer than 4 hours change it And never wear it to bed!. You can get something called TSS i just lost a friend to TSS so be careful!.

Read the instructions carefully If it feels uncomfortable then it's not in right and don't be scared to ask your doctor and mom about them and how to use it!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

I think mostly everyone has given sufficient advice but can I just please advise you not to listen to Belle's advice as it is very dangerous!. They should not have said what they said regardless of personal experiences!. Good luck when you try again!. I find tampons a lot easier to use too and just a tip you will know when you have it in right because you won't feel like you have it in if it's positioned right!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Dont be scared!.!.!.if you are Australian you will likely buy non applicator tampons whereas in the US applicator tampons are more popular!. Both are pretty easy to use and come with instructions!.!.!.go get some in the smallest size and have a try!.!.!.if your mum uses them ask her , she will have alot of valuable information for you!.

Just relax and dont get worried if you cant get it right at first,,,it takes most of us a few tries!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

ask ur mom or a doc to teach u how 2 use one!.
dont leave it in for more than 10 hrs!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

relax relax relax - most important!.

Try either squatting, one leg up on the loo or lying on the bed - relax and gently insert - the ones with applicators are easier!. Remember to change every four hours at least - and don't wear one overnight!. Good luckWww@Answer-Health@Com

Use the ones with the applicator,
lubricate it, and take your time!.
i was scared the first time, and i was
14 too!. It becomes really easy once
you have used them a few times!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

i have never used them i use pads anyways relax and take a deep breath and insert it if u cannot then read the instructionsWww@Answer-Health@Com

tampons are really easy to use, just read the little pamphlet that comes in the box!. i think tampons are a lot better than padsWww@Answer-Health@Com

Use pads for now till you are ready !. I hate tampons !.Www@Answer-Health@Com
