This is going to sound really gross----
spread ur legs to shoulder width apart, (no undies on btw :P) and kinda jimmy it in, put the plastic part as far as you can without ur fingers touching ur vag, and then push the stick at the bottom to insert it.
Srry if thats gross

How do you insert a tampon Correctly?
I have read the instructions and tried several times using a mirror and in various positions. After opening the opening I put the tampon in and push gently. It goes no where. Am I just scared or am I puttng it at the wrong angle? All the sites I've looked at don't explain the step between placing it to the opening and pushing it in. Totally confused. Please help x
admin answers:
Are you sure you're using the right tampon? If your hymen is still intact you might prefer the smallest tampons.
Make sure you're pushing it the right angle, generally, you have to push up slightly towards your bum rather than pushing it up in a straight line.
Also, remember that at the entrance of your vagina there's a tight ring of muscles that somewhat "lock" it. If you push a little past that point you will feel it sliding in without problems. Then, just push until you feel comfortable.

how do you insert a tampon correctly so it doesnt hurt when you sit down?
and you know where theres the grip....does the grip hav to go in your vagina in order to put it in all the way...or do u just stop and dnt put the grip in?
admin answers:
No. Your fingers hold it at the grip, you insert it inside your body and stop when your fingers (on the grip) are just outside your vagina. Then you push the smaller tube inside the larger tube and you should be good. If you do it like this, the bottom end of the tampon will be a couple inches up inside you, and the string should hang out a couple inches. If you are pushing in the applicator and it hits something and stops, that is your cervix. Do not push any farther up. Instead, just push the tampon out of the applicator at that point without pushing it up (you might have to pull the applicator down some).

Check out this video - http://www.plannedparenthood.org/teen-talk/watch/period-how-use-pad-tampon-cup-26793.htm and if you're not sure where your vaginal opening is then look at this page - http://www.scarleteen.com/article/body/anatomy_pink_parts_female_sexual_anatomy
Wash hands first then get into a comfortable position and relax. Unwrap the tampon making sure the string hangs down, hold the tampon in one hand while you hold your labia open with your other hand. If using a non-applicator tampon then insert as far as it'll go, aiming towards the bottom of your back - don't be scared of touching your vagina, it's yours and both your vagina and menstrual flow is very clean. If using an applicator tampon insert the outer tube into your vagina as far as it'll go, then use your index finger to push the inner tube through the outer tube to push the tampon into your vagina, once the inner tube is all the way in remove the applicator. If you feel pain as you move the tampon isn't in far enough so remove and try again later with a fresh tampon. To remove pull strings gently but firmly, wrap up and bin - never flush!
To make insertion easier use lowest absorbency which are smaller, and cotton tampons like Cottons or Natracare which are softer so easier to insert, they're also safer than brands like Tampax, you may also want to use non-applicator as they give you more control and have less waste. Insert during heavy flow, if you need to use lubrication such as KY jelly or olive oil, you may want to masturbate as when aroused your vagina becomes larger, relaxed and lubricated so making insertion easier. Take a spare tampon and practice using your closed fist to represent your vagina, don't use that same tampon in your vagina, instead pop it into water then you can see how it works inside your body too.
If you have problems don't panic, just try again another time or use something else, there are plenty of other options many of which are better than tampons so no reason to get stressed with tampons. I'd recommend menstrual cups, these are healthier and more hygienic than tampons, they are also easier to use, more convenient and more reliable than tampons as they can be worn any time up to 12 hours without leaking. If you want to learn more see here - http://www.scarleteen.com/article/advice/what_are_menstrual_cups
Remember to avoid TSS and vaginal infections it's important to stay hygienic by changing tampons every 4-6 hours and alternate between tampons and pads. Always use lowest absorbency and don't use tampons before your period, with light flow, overnight or when you have a vaginal infection. See the tampon health web site http://www.spotsite.org and the TSS information site http://www.toxicshock.com for more information.

How do you insert a tampon correctly without it hurting?
im going swimming tomorrow and i really really dont want to miss out, ive tried using them before but it hurts
admin answers:
Heya,
There is many things that can make it hurt, try using a slender tampon with a plastic applicator ( i higly recommend this for beginners), also before you insert it make sure you are relaxed and calm if you are tense this can also make it hurt, and also the best best tip i can give you is get hold of some KY Jelly and put a tiny bit on the top of the tampon and then it should slide right in without it hurting. If you cant get it in though there is nothing wrong with you its just practise makes perfect, if you cant get it in though ( which i think you will) you wont be able to go swimming you dont have to tell your friends the real reason just say you dont feel very well, if there your true friends they should understand. Hope i helped and good luck
xx
