open the tampon and Sit or stand in a comfortable position, hold the tampon with the fingers that you write with and the string faing away from you. Hold the middle of the tampon. With your other hand, open the the folds of skin around the vaginal opening and position the tampon in the vaginal opening. Gently push the tampon into the opening, aiming for the small of your back. Once the applicator or outer tube is inside of you, use your index finger to push the the rest in. Make sure that the string stays outside the vagina so you can pull to remove.xx.hopes this helps..let me know.xx

Tampons aren't recommended to pre-teens due to higher risks of TSS, even if you learn how to use tampons correctly the risks are still far higher as you're less likely to have TSST-1 antibodies. It would be recommended to use pads at first, if you want to use internal options try menstrual cups like MeLuna. If determined to use tampons there are plenty of sources online for instructions and videos on YouTube.

I have my period and i want to switch from pads to tampons I have some and don't what to ask my mom how to use them How should i use a tampon without an applicator?

If you don't know how to use tampons it's best that you don't - learn more about tampon use, tampon risks, and the precautions you need to follow to reduce your risks. You also don't go from pads to tampons, when you use tampons you still have to use pads: before your period, on light days, overnight while sleeping, if you have a vaginal infections, and it's best to alternate with pads. Consider safer options like menstrual cups or softcups, but if still determined to use tampons then just talk to your mom and she'll help you learn more - it's your responsibility to learn correct tampon use.


When should you know to take your tampon out?

Tampons need to be changed every 4-6 hours.If your tampon leaks then you remove the tampon before this time, and if the tampon leaks within 1-2 hours you may want to use the next absorbency up. Remember you change absorbency as flow changes, if the tampon isn't saturated in blood after 4-6 hours you need to use lower absorbency or if already using lowest absorbency you need to switch to pads as your flow is too light for tampons.Many women use pads or pantiliners as back-up, especially when first using tampons.

Is it bad when your tampon string gets bloody but your tampon is only a little bloody?

Your tampon should be completely saturated with blood after 4-6 hours - if the tampon is dry when removing then you need to use a lower absorbency or switch to pads. If the string is getting blood on it some may be from blood lingering in the vaginal canal before tampon insertion, but it may also be that blood is simply bypassing the tampon. Try different TYPES (not just brands) of tampon, you may also want to consider menstrual cups which don't leak.
