Hoo boy -- you're gonna get some strange answers and some really smart-alecky ones, but pay them no mind. Tampons are rather difficult to insert if they're at the wrong angle. Another thing may be if you're a virgin, your hymen -- a membrane that surrounds but not completely covers the vagina -- may be making insertion difficult. Try putting your leg on the toilet seat from a standing position and aim the tampon to the small of your back rather than straight up. Relax and go slow. It should slide in easily unless, like I say, the hymen is obstructing it. If that happens, then you'll just have to stay with pads until you have sex and the hymen is broken. Don't have sex just for that reason, however. But once you are sexually active, you should have no further trouble using a tampon.
And just ignore any smart a-- comments you might get on here.

when you buy a box of tampons, there is a folded up piece of paper that has instructions on it. It tells you where your vagina is and what hole to put it in. I think it's pretty intricate and informative and it may help you. Try taking a look at it next time. Good luck, hun.

Are you using slim fit, or junior size? Maybe your just to small, or a virgin, or maybe your using a tampon that is to big for you. If I was you I would just stick with pads until you got older and more expierienced with them, before you end up hurting yourself.

it takes practice.......... they make slimmer sized tampons or tampons in lower absorbency's that might work better for you......
the most important thing is for you to relax when your trying to put it in and make sure your using tampons with applicators that help with insertion....... something i read once recommended using a hand mirror until you get the hang of it

I cant either.......
at least the last time I tried I couldnt (when I was 13).. it got stuck and was very uncomfortable... I started crying while I was trying to pull it out with all my might cuz it hurt so bad...
I might be able to now since I am 19 and not a virgin anymore.... but I dont want to risk it.

I had the same problem when I started my period. I never could get it back far enough, or I would get it crooked. I eventually stopped trying.

Be environment friendly. Don't spread the mess with your used tampoons and pads. Use mooncup!
