There's no such thing as 'devirginity' - you are a virgin, or you're had sex.

A virgin is someone who has not had sex, it is a social construct not a physical state of being - it's nothing more than a word. You are a virgin up until you have sex with another person, tampons are not another person and using tampons is not sex...thus tampons do not change you being a virgin.


Tampons can tear the hymen but it's unlikely - the hymen is tissue that surrounds the vaginal opening, there's normally enough room for a tampon to fit through, and the hymen is flexible so will stretch to accommodate larger items - the hymen is usually only torn from rough or forced penetration. Even if torn the hymen has absolutely nothing what-so-ever to do with virginity, it's just skin.

It is possible to use tampons with an intact hymen, though it can potentially tear the hymen. It western opinions, it does not count as deflouration, though technically it would.

Why would someone feel sharp pains in their pelvic area while using tampons?

Tampons can increase menstrual cramps if they expand into your cervix - if you have a short vaginal canal and use lengthways expanding tampons this will be worse. Tampons also damage vaginal tissues, if using rayon tampons that are too high an absorbency they may cause tears.If you're sure tampons are the cause of this then use pads or cups instead, they're safer anyway.

Pain when inserting tampon not the applicator?

Tampons are dry and absorbent so will cause friction against delicate vaginal mucosa during insertion - especially if using commercial tampons such as Tampax, Playtex, Kotex, etc. as these are made from bleached chemically-treated rayon so rougher and may cause irritation.Absorbency is a factor too, if using too high an absorbency or your flow isn't heavy enough for tampons the lack of lubrication will cause discomfort - too high an absorbency also increases risk of Toxic Shock Syndrome. If using correct absorbency but still feeling discomfort try organic tampons, soft tampons, or sponge tampons, also consider menstrual cups or softcups.

Can tampons cause vaginal scratches?

Yes, tampons do cause vaginal tissue damage.Tampons are dry and absorbent, they don't just absorb blood but also absorb vaginal moisture needed to keep the vaginal tissues lubricated and protected from damage. Tampons can thus cause splitting and ulceration, especially if using too high an absorbency and rayon tampons increase damage as it's rougher and more aggressively absorbent.Rayon is used on commercial tampons such as Tampax, Playtex, and Kotex, which is why these brands are more likely to cause Toxic Shock Syndrome (TSS), these tears give bacterial toxins responsible for TSS direct access to the bloodstream.


If you are a virgin can you wear tampons and not get cervical cancer?

Yes, you can wear tampons. The vagina of a virgin is absolutely no different to that of a non-virgin so there is no reason why a virgin should avoid tampon use - although tampons are not recommended to pre-teens or teens given higher risks of TSS, pads or menstrual cups are best. Tampons don't cause cervical cancer, although some brands of tampons like Tampax or Playtex can contain dioxin which increases cancer risks, they do not directly cause cervical cancer. If worried use organic cotton tampons like Natracare or Emerita, sponge tampons like Jade & Pearl, menstrual cups or softcups - all are much safer options.


Can a tampon that is to big make you itch?

Yes, of course.Tampons are dry and absorbent, you then insert into a moist delicate environment - they dry-out vaginal tissues causing irritation and discomfort, worse if using too high an absorbency or using rayon tampons as rayon is rougher than cotton. Rayon tampons are also treated with various chemicals that can cause irritation, vaginal infections, sensitivity or allergies.If using tampons it's best to use hypo-allergenic cotton tampons, or consider switching to softcups or menstrual cups which are safer and more comfortable.


Can tampons stop you from having babies?

Tampons wouldn't affect a baby during pregnancy, but there is absolutely no reason why a woman should be using tampons while she is pregnant - tampons should only be used during menstruation, even if experiencing bleeding during pregnancy it is not safe to use tampons as you don't know the blood loss to know what absorbency to use. Misusing tampons this way can increase risk of vaginal infections and toxic shock syndrome - the latter would potentially cause serious harm to the baby.


Do tampons cause burning while urinating?

No, not usually.Tampons go into the vagina so don't come in contact with the urethra where urine comes from, although tampons can cause irritation around the vaginal opening due to friction or sensitivities to chemicals within some brands, which can sting if urine flows over that area while urinating.


Why are you cramping after using a tampon on a light day?

There are a few reasons why tampons may increase menstrual cramps;Tampons can expand into your cervix.By absorbing fluids tampons 'tug' on vaginal walls.Tampons can cause vaginal ulceration.Tampons can contain chemicals that cause bad reaction.In this case the tampon had more of a drying effect on the vaginal tissues causing more 'tugging' as it was drying out your vagina, it may have also caused ulceration. You need to be more careful, tampons shouldn't be worn with light flow.
