Try asking your mom about the Diva Cup - a much more hygienic, convenient solution than either tampons or pads.

If you are religious, it may go against your religion. Some people think that because tampons are inserted into the vagina, you lose your virginity. That's incorrect and it doesn't have anything to do with your virginity. Others are also worried about TSS (Toxic Shock Syndrome) which is a rare disease. Sometimes, if you wear a tampon for too long, you can get TSS and it can be fatal. Try asking your mom why and explain to her why you need to wear tampons.

nicely you should target to describe for your mom that perchance your occupied with an excellent style of events that could be frustrating to do in case you've been wearing a pad. clarify that their a lot less stressful to flow round with and how uncomfortable you experience with pads. so some distance as paying for tampons, in case you would possibly want to stroll or get someone older to take you to the shop, you'll discover out what works properly for you and purchase them your self without telling your mom...i comprehend this sounds deceiving and not in any respect listening to your moms and dads yet its as a lot because the way you experience and in case you somewhat want to apply tampons. best of success! :)

Ask your mom if you can please talk to her about Tampons she is afraid of Toxic Shock it is rare but serious use the lowest one for your needs and change often tell her you will wear pads but for gymnastics swimming etc you prefer to use tampons and make the decision with your mother point out that it is noticable with your outfits for gymnastics and you will feel more confident if you can choose to wear them and not feel like your are wearing a diaper

If your mom is worried about all of the chemicals in tampons (dioxin, rayon, bleached cotton!) than you can ask her if it would be okay if you used 100% cotton organic tampons (like Natracare!) when you are doing cheerleading and gymnastics. Let her know that you'll be responsible with them and tell her that Natracare tampons are made out of only cotton so there is no risk of Toxic Shock Syndrome (TSS) and it won't mess up the natural lubrication of the vagina. Best of luck!

I'm going through the same problems. Some mothers are afriad that tampons will take away your virginty, which is totally not true. Also, sometimes it gets stuck...in there. Of course you can get it out, but your mom's just probably afraid (her fear doesn't make much sense but it's probably the reason.)

Nothing is so bad about tampons. As far as I am concerned it is a personal hygiene choice, if you have enough money to buy them, do so.... What is she going to do about it? How would she even know? Just be sure and read all of the included information the box. ( BTW it has NOTHING to do with virginity if that is your mother's problem ) Did she give you a reason?

Well she might not let you wear them b/c it's more of an older woman thing i think b/c moms are afraid that you will no longer be a virgin try talking to her and asking her if you can wear them if she says no try to convince her

omg!! That is horrible. Tell your mom to get over it (only nicely)

See if she will compromise with you...at least let you wear one when you are going to gymnastics and cheerleading!

if not, then this is one time where I would disobey my mother and buy them myself.
