What is better to use? Tampon (how do you use it?) or pads?

Question

Anyway, how do you use a tampon?

Answer 1

How To Use A Tampon:

Sit or stand in a comfortable position. Some women prefer to place one leg on the toilet seat or tub, while others prefer to squat down. After you find a position that is most comfortable for you, hold the tampon with the fingers that you write with. Hold the middle of the tampon, at the spot where the smaller, inner tube inserts into the larger, outer tube. Make sure the string is visible and pointing away from your body.


With your other hand, open the labia (the folds of skin around the vaginal opening) and position the tampon in the vaginal opening.


Gently push the tampon into the opening, aiming for the small of your back. Stop when your fingers touch your body and the applicator, or outer tube, is completely inside the vagina.


Once the applicator or outer tube is inside of you, use your index finger to push the inner tube (the tube where the removal string is connected) through the outer tube.


Once the inner tube is all the way in, use your thumb and middle finger to remove the applicator or outer tube. Make sure that the string hangs outside of the vaginal opening. Later, when you are ready to remove the tampon, hold the string and gently pull it downward until the entire tampon is out.
If the tampon is inserted correctly, you should not feel it. If you feel uncomfortable in any way, you may have inserted the tampon incorrectly or the tampon may not be placed far enough into the vagina. If this happens, just remove the tampon and start again with a new tampon. Remember that practice makes perfect. If you don't get it on the first try, your second try will most likely be successful. Instead of getting frustrated and giving up, relax and try again!

I personally that tampons are only for swimming and pads are for like everyday.

Answer 2

I think that tampons are more comfortable than pads. Wearing a pad feels like wearing a diaper. Tampons are easily inserted into the vagina. The plastic ones glide right in, just gently push in, then bull pack so the plastic portion detaches itself, leaving the absorption portion inside.

Answer 3

tampons are much more comfortable and you dont have to worry so much about leaks with tampons. but some people are intimidated by them. And also they run the risk of making you sick if you dont change them regularly. My vote is tampons. And yeah, there are detailed instructions on how to use them on a pamphlet in the box. good luck!

Answer 4

My sister doesn't use either of these she uses a disk that looks like a diaphragm and holds like a cup it is called: Instead .

you can find it at wal mart or target. she said it is the best thing she has ever tried. as far as how to use a tampon read instructions or ask your local doctor

Answer 5

in my thought i would use pads. but if you use a tampon then you have to put in the hole in between your legs so the blood wont drip out and you change it like a pad.

Answer 6

Tampon is better, it has a little string you can floss with after eating it

Answer 7

the instructions are in the box.
