I started using them at 17 when I was taking a water aerobics class at my high school, and I never went back to pads. They make me feel like I'm wearing a diaper!

Well I got my period 2 weeks before my 11th birthday, I started using tampons around the age of 14-15.

I was 15 and they work fine for me I played a lot of sports in high school and one time during a huge basketball game a girl had a pad on well because of all the movement it fell out I have no idea how and since no one knew who it was well our coach told us we would have to use tampons because that was disgusting and humiliating for the whole team even though it gave us something to laugh at becuz we had a feeling who it was!!!!

I was 10 years old, many moons ago. That was about a year after I began menstruating. I stole my Mother's Tampon because I was in my period and I was going to an amusement park on a beach. Once I used one, I never stopped, they were that much more comfortable.

18 when i was old enough to have a job and buy them my mother is dead set against them she always has been and gives me a fit to this day for using them and im 28 years old. tampons are soo much better and way more discreet wear a light bad til you get use to your flow with them so you dont make a mess

I guess I was about 14. I ended up needing to use them because I was getting monthly UTI's from using pads.

I was about 16, but I wish I had used them before. I don't use anything else now. They are much more comfortable and they allow you to do anything you normally would.
