Going to use tampons for the first time and I'm really nervous?!
Question: Going to use tampons for the first time and I'm really nervous?
I'm 16 and I asked my mom to buy be some tampons, because I'm really just sick of that constant wet feeling when I wear a pad. But I'm really nervous, not so much about putting it in, but taking it out. I'm afraid it will hurt. How do I know when to take it out? I know you're not supposed to have it in for more than like 6 hours or something, but I don't know how I know when it will be full. I'm really scared. And don't tell me to ask my mom because she never used tampons.
Answers:
for starters if you have heavy periods then you want to take it out every 2hours if not then maybe every 4hrs. don't worry it should not hurt when removing it.
