Answers:

Be careful about Toxic Shock Syndrome (TSS). It could happen if you leave a tampon in too long or sometimes it just happens. It's pretty rare though. Always make sure your hands are clean. Put your thumb and middle finger on either side, and use your index finger to push it in. Keep your body relaxed, and I find it easier if you like, put one foot up on the toilet seat. I find it helpful to ,erm, clench when you pull out the applicator to prevent from pulling out the tampon itself. Search videos of how to insert a tampon on youtube. Don't worry, they insert them in like their mouth or nostril LOL. That's what I did to know what I was doing before i used one. The tampons themselves usualy come with instructions and a TSS risk warning. If it feels painful, you didn't push it in all the way or just inserted it wrong. Pull it out and try again. It sometimes hurts when pulling it out if you didn't have a heavy enough blood flow, and there's like friction. Again, I put one leg up when pulling out my tampon too. I reccommed U by Kotex.
