Right now im going through that too. I have been doing some research to check if maybe that's somthing serious and i should get it checked out. My mom said that i shouldn't be worried and what i did find is your vagina might be inflated. You should try to stick your finger and if you cant it could be because of a yeast infection which isn't very serious, its common. Ask your mom first though.

∙ 8y agoIt may be that your flow is lighter or your vagina is irritated, such as from a yeast infection, thus more difficult to insert the tampon. If you're tense at all the vaginal canal is going to narrow so make insertion more difficult, this can also happen if you're in a sightly awkward position. If your cervix is lower than normal this may also be a factor, check with your fingers to see if this is the issue.

Brown spots on tampon?
If you remove a tampon and it has brown spots then it is likely old blood, normal when your period is light as it takes time for the blood to leave your body and it goes brown. If your period is light then you should not be using tampons at all, only use tampons with full flow. If the tampon has brown spots before insertion then throw it out and check other tampons before using them.
What if you used a tampon before you knew you were pregnant?
There is no harm in using tampons when you're pregnant, although pregnancy usually doesn't require tampons. Don't worry about it.
Why does a tampon have a string?
Some tampons have strings in order to make it easier to remove the tampon. Not all tampons have strings, to remove you would insert clean fingers into the vagina to grab the tampon and pull out.
Can you see a picture of tampon?
Yes, you can see a picture of a tampon by googling for an image of tampons. You can also see a picture of a tampon on the side of a tampon box. If you were to buy tampons you would be able to see a tampon first-hand too!
What is the length of a regular tampon?
The size of a regular absorbency tampon depends on the type and brand of tampon. Most commercial and organic tampons are around 1 1/5-2 inches long, whereas sponge tampons or cloth tampons may vary in size greatly.
Can the caia koopman tampon cases hold super size tampons?

Can you use a tampon in a hot tub?
Yes, you can wear a tampon to the water park as long as your flow is heavy enough for a tampon. You can also wear options such as menstrual cups and softcups, these can be worn even with light flow and for up to 12 hours so a much better option. If you do wear tampons be sure to time it so you can insert a fresh tampon just before going in the water, and you may need to insert a fresh tampon when you get out.
What are the chances that a tampon will release the blood flow in the water?
Chances of leaking in the water while wearing a tampon, also using them correctly such as by inserting a fresh tampon before swimming and using correct absorbency, is fairly low but still possible. If worried you may want to consider using a menstrual cup, these are internal like tampons but hold far more than tampons and have light suction so don't leak like tampons.
Where does the tampon go in the genital area?
The tampon goes into the vagina, which is where the blood is coming from. If you don't know basic genital anatomy then you should not be using tampons as there is no way you know how to use tampons correctly or understand the risks involved in tampon use. Use pads for now and spend some time learning the basics of your anatomy before considering tampon use.
