If by delivery you mean childbirth, you need to wait at least one month before using tampons. It's also important to only use tampons when you know your flow pattern, for the first few months after childbirth flow patterns can be erratic so you risk using too high an absorbency if not careful.

Tampons should not be used for at least two weeks after giving birth - or longer if your doctor informs you otherwise. Chances are you won't menstruate so soon after pregnancy, it may take a few months before you start to menstruate enough. Remember do not use tampons if flow is light, also if you experience discomfort stop use and talk to your doctor.

Doctors normally say nothing in the vagina for at least 6 weeks after delivery. There is a risk for infection. I would wait until the second period comes.

You can use tampons at any point during or after a miscarriage. If bleeding is very heavy , you may find it easier to use pads until the bleeding lightens up.

Should you use Jr Tampons?

There's nothing to say that you should use tampons full-stop, you have other options you can use instead. Jr tampons are light absorbency tampons, only named jr tampons in the US to try to encourage young women to use tampons earlier in order for tampon companies to increase product loyalty early. If you do use tampons you should always use lowest absorbency for your flow, if that means using jr tampons then those are the ones that you will use.

Can you menstrate with tampons and not pads?

No, if you use tampons you still have to use pads - it's not safe to wear tampons before your period or with light flow, and it's not hygienic to use tampons throughout your entire period so you should ideally alternate with pads or at least wear pads at night. Tampons dry-out vaginal tissues causing ulceration which increases TSS risks by giving TSST-1 toxins responsible for TSS a more direct route into the bloodstream - thus tampons shouldn't be worn without sufficient flow. Tampons encourage bacterial growth and prevent vaginal cleaning, inserting one tampon after another keeps bacteria within the vagina, using pads allows your vagina a chance to clean itself and heal.
