The average age of menarche is 13 years old, with anything between 10-16 years old being within normal range. It's best to start carrying supplies with you from the start of puberty, menarche normally occurs within four years of starting puberty: e.g. start carrying supplies when you start experiencing discharge. You shouldn't use tampon when first starting menstruating, just carry pads, liners, painkillers, tissues, and spare underwear.

What do you do when you get your period in middle school?
start carrying tampons with you, their easier to carry and use. If you don't have them and you start, go to your schools nurse, they have what you need there. Don't stress about it. If you're too nervous to go to the nurse, ask a friend of yours that you're comfortable to tell about your problem, most girls carry pads or tampons.

Why should 10-16 year olds carry tampons?
There's no reason why 10-16 yea olds should carry tampons - in fact at this age tampons aren't recommended, and certainly not for the first few periods. Girls of this age should carry menstrual products with them in case their periods start, as they can be irregular at first they don't know when their periods may start. It's also a good idea to carry supplies with you to help your friends out too.
How old you should be to use tampons?
There is no age limit on tampons, but tampons aren't recommended to pre-teens or teens.Tampons pose multiple health risks so a woman has to be mature enough to understand those risks and responsible enough to follow precautions, but even then younger women have more delicate vaginal tissues and lower immunity to the TSST-1 toxins responsible for Toxic Shock Syndrome so are at much greater risk. At very least women should wait six cycles before using tampons so that they know their flow pattern well enough to know what absorbency is safe to use when.

What age should girls use tampons?
There is no specific age.It's recommended that pre-teens and teens particularly do not use tampons as they are less likely to have TSST-1 antibodies so as such will be at far greater risk of TSS. Ideally women of any age should use either pads or cups - menstrual cups and softcups are internal like tampons but safer and more hygienic, this also makes them more convenient and they're more reliable so a better option than tampons.

What should you use during menstruation?
Every girl is different in using pads or tampons, but usually you first start off with a "pantyliner" like when you would have discharge. Once you start getting your period more often some girls start to choose "tampons". Tampons are usually best when it comes to periods, like if you go swimming, maybe sports. When you first start using one, don't try and force it in or out because you may end up hurting yourself. Just calm down and slowly push in or pull out. "Pads" are usually more easier and slightly more comfortable because you just have to pull the tape and push it on your panties. But for my opinion I just like pads their more easier for me. You can choose it for yourself just when your ready.
