Tampons are really not that bad at all. I was reeeeely scared too when I first started using tampons. I just started 2 months ago and they are much easier and cleaner. You should definately try them, and if you dont like, you can always go back to pads!

tampons TOTALLY dont hurt, i mean they may when you first try to applicate them, but once you do, life is SO much easier! theres not as much of a hassle of carrying around tons of pads, and with tampons you can swim and still do fun stuff! tampons are very comfortable once you get them in, its just the matter of getting them there. once you do you're all good!

just make sure you don't use a huge size your first time. start out small. but it is really easy don't try inserting it standing up it goes in better sitting down ( i know it is gross but that's it)
after awhile you cant feel it at all...sometimes i don't even remember i have it and i try to put another one in before i take it out. hahah. and they are much more comfortable than pads, they dont look like diapers and you dont smell down there especially if you use a deodorant scent.

they should not be painful, if they are inserted the right way then you can't feel them, it takes practice to learn how to insert them the right way for it to be comfortable for you, once you get the hang of it you will love it, you don't have the smell of the pad or the sweating from the plastic in the pad

oh i was so worried when i started using them. but honestly they are ALOT better!!! no they dont hurt and they are comfortable! its like your not even wearing them. but they do cause some people more cramps. but try them. they really arent painful at all. I started using them about a year ago and i love them much better then pads.

As long as you read the directions and insert it properly; it should not hurt or be uncomfortable. You shouldn't even be able to notice it's in there.

no they dont hurt, unless you have the right lubricant ( Vaseline or Grease) and it should slide in.
and they're only uncomfortable if you dont put them in right.
