Question

i can always feel the tampon.. help.....

Answer 1

Because you're not inserting it properly. Its most likely not in far enough.

Use tampons for teens, ultra slims. Always a plastic applicator. Never put a tampon in when you're not bleeding, as it will be too dry and getting it in place will be difficult or painful.

Try try, and try again. It takes practice.

You will not lose it up there, it cannot fit into the uterus, as the cervix doesnt open for it, and you can actually reach your cervix yourself. You cannot lose it.

You may need to wait until youre older, some girls just cant wear tampons. If all else fails, wait a few months and try again.

Answer 2

You do not have it in the way it should be because the instructions say if you have it inserted the right way then you will not even feel it.
Use the smallest kind.
Most women will want to use a tampon at some time. A properly inserted tampon will not cause any discomfort. Here's how to comfortably use tampons.
Difficulty: Easy
Time Required: 5 minutes
Here's How:
Relax! Try not to worry about inserting the tampon right the first time. If you are tense it will make insertion harder.
The best time to practice inserting a tampon is during the heavy part of your period. The tampon should glide inside your vagina easily without any discomfort.
Decide if you prefer to insert the tampon standing or sitting. If sitting is your preference, sit on the toilet. If you want to try standing, putting one foot on the bathtub helps.
Hold the tampon applicator in your right hand if you are right-handed, or left if left-handed.
Use your thumb and middle finger to hold the bottom of the larger, outer tube.
Point the tip of the applicator toward your vagina, facing slightly towards the back. The smaller tube should be pointed away from your body.
Use your other hand to open your vagina.
Place the tip of the applicator at the opening of your vagina.
Gently push the smaller end of the applicator in until it is completely inside the larger outer tube. This pushes the tampon into your vagina and out of the tube.
With your thumb and middle finger still on the outer tube, release the smaller tube and let the strings dangle freely.
Gently pull the two tubes out together.
Dispose of the applicator according to the manufactuer's instructions.
When you are ready to remove the tampon, gently pull the withdrawl strings down and forward. The used tampon may be flushed down the toilet.
Tips:
Lubricating the rounded end of the tampon with a water-based lubricant such as K-Y Jelly can make insertion easier the first few times. Don't use petroleum jelly.
Always read the manufactuer's instructions throughly before using any type of tampon.
If the tampon feels uncomfortable it is probably not inserted far enough into your vagina. Try again with a new tampon.

Answer 3

Yeah, I agree, its probably not in far enough. Make sure you're using a plastic applicator. Playtex Gentle Glide or Tampax Pearls are really good. Just make sure you don't put it in sideways. Oh, while I'm at it, you'll probably want to make sure they are unscented. Scented tampons can cause yeast infections. Not fun!

Answer 4

it's not in properly. At 13 i could not wear them I always used a towel. It was not until I lost my virginity that I could wear a tampon!!!

Answer 5

If your tampon is in correctly than you should not feel it. You might be putting it in incorrectly...like not far enough in or maybe, you uterus is tilted. You should ask your mom to give you advice or maybe she can take you to gynocologist that deals with women's bodies!
