You might have a little difficulty putting in the first time, but it shouldn't be painful or uncomfortable. I'm 27 and have been using them for years, but the first time I used them I wasted a whole box because I couldn't figure out how it was supposed to go in. Duh...
Buy Playtex, get the lowest flow-size the first time. Playtex has pictures on the directions that are really easy to follow. Good luck!

I was never able to use anything larger than a junior tampon until I lost my virginity. I suppose my hymen was blocking the way and it just wouldn't go in. The cycle after I lost my virginity I was able to use a super-plus tampon with no problem!

When you first begin using them, there is a slightly uncomfortable feeling, but it doesn't hurt, whether you're a virgin or not.
There's a myth that using tampons will cause you to "loose" your virginity, but it doesn't.

It might hurt a tiny bit the first time, but no it's no different for a virgin.

It didn't hurt me. I had a friend that couldn't use them because it hurt too much. Get the smallest size to start with. If you put it in wrong (at a wierd angle) it could hurt a bit. And if you take it out soon after putting it in, it kinda hurts. So relax, then insert.

no, it doesnt make a difference. if you put a tampon in properly, you shouldnt even know it is there. i mean you might feel the string on the outside, but a tampon should never hurt or be uncomfortable. if you are having problems with that, you should see an OB/GYN. and dont be embarrassed, we all had questions like that at one point. =)

First off don't be embarrassed, and second, no the shouldn't but since you are young start off with the thin ones, to let your body adjust, then you can move to a regular size. If it does hurt, you may want to re-insert it. If it still hurts, don't use them, you may be allergic. They should not hurt, in fact you shouldn't be able to feel them at all. Read the directions on the box to insert them properly.

I'm 17 , my friend told me that it didn't hurt when she put it in ...but she wasn't a virgin... My other friend tried it and she said that it felt uncomfortable... and she was a virgin. I also have tried it and it does hurt.

I wouldn't know as I don't use tampons. But I would assume if you put them in wrong it'd hurt. There should be directions on the back of the box.
