Just a question.?
I was just wondering, I'm 15 and I use pads when I'm on my period, but I'm not sure if that is normal. Should I be using tampons by now or can you just continue to use pads? Also I have tried to use tampons before but I can never seem to get them in (sorry that might be too much info) and now, down there is a little sore from trying.. could i have done damage? I would really appreciate your help if you could give it... Thanks
Metformin, PCOS and substance loss?

Sweetie, it's perfectly fine to still use pads. Honestly my mother didn't let us use tampons until we were able to buy them ourselves. As long as you don't have problem with leaks at all, I'd continue using them. And they are much nicer at night than tampons (especially if you sleep in like I like to). You probably didn't do any serious damage from trying to put it in. If you aren't relaxed it doesn't go in comfortably. I still even from time to time have a little problems and I am 22. I will say that when you're ready, even if that's now, just relax when you try to put it in. Stepping one foot up on the toilet seat might help open you up a little. But just follow the directions on the box and make sure you don't leave it in too long. Also it might help since you are a beginner, make sure to wear a pantiliner. Then if you do have leaks at all you don't soil your panties. It will also help you know when you remove it. Good luck and welcome to the world of womenhood :)
Please afford me some flawless proposal.?
you dont start using tampons at a certain age u start using them when u begin 2 feel comfortable with your body
It's just hard to do the first couple of times you try. Just
relax and keep trying, you'll get it. And the freedom will
be great!
There is nothing wrong with you. Using tampons is a personal preference. If the tampon won't go in, make sure you are relaxed and keep trying. You probably didn't do any damage, just sore from trying, your body probably isn't used to having anything in it like that, thats all :]
You could use pads forever..its safe. I dont like tampons at all. You probably irritated yourself. If the irratation doesnt go away in a few days see a gynocologist and get his opinion.
use watever you feel comfortable in
If you don't want to use tampons, then that's fine. Use whatever you feel like using.
Ive heard of postpatum depression but can a woman who is pregnant have that?
It's your choice what to use.
It would be a lot easier to use a tampon when you're sexually active. Using pads is fine, you can continue to do so if you want to. There's no rule that says you have to wear tampons, pads are just fine.
Short interval, no cramps, pregnant?
you can use tampons when ever you are comfortable and if you are going to use them for the first time you a thinner one...don't worry using a pad is fine too
You don't Ever have to use them if you don't want to!
It's all up to you! I've had my period for over four years, and I've only used tampons once.
I didn't like them, and like you said, it made me sore.
Don't worry, most likely you didn't injure yourself at all. It just feels a little uncomfortable at first.
I don't plan on ever using tampons unless I Absolutely have to. I feel that pads are much more natural and easy on the body. But it's up to You what you do!
Hope it helps! =)
