What band of tampon should a 11 year old use for the first time?

It's always best to use organic cotton tampons over rayon tampons, also always use lowest absorbency: if the tampon leaks within 1-2 hours it's safe to use the next absorbency up, but if it isn't saturated with blood after 4-6 hours use a lower absorbency or switch to pads.
Tampons aren't recommended for 11 year olds, even if responsible enough to follow precautions to reduce risks of vaginal infections and Toxic shock syndrome, the risks are higher as they're less likely to have TSST-1 antibodies and vaginal tissues are more delicate so more prone to damage. At very least a person should wait a few months after menarche before using tampons until they know their menstrual flow well enough to know what absorbency to use at what point in their period.
Ideally a young person should start off by using pads, and if they want to use internal options they should consider safe options like menstrual cups or softcups instead of tampons.

Tampons aren't recommended to someone so young due to increased risks of TSS, if you are going to use tampons it's important to follow precautions which includes using the lowest possible absorbency for your flow. A good rule of thumb is to start with lowest absorbency, if the tampon leaks within 1-2 hours it's okay to use the next absorbency up, but if the tampon is not saturated with blood after 4-6 hours use lower absorbency or if already using lowest absorbency use pads.
If you are going to use tampons over safer options like sanitary pads or menstrual cups then it's best to avoid rayon tampons - brands such as Tampax, Playtex, and Kotex - as these pose higher risk of TSS and other tampon-associated health risks. Opt for cotton tampons such as Emerita, Cottons, or Natracare, also try non-applicator as they're easier to insert and produce less waste.

It's recommended younger women start by using menstrual pads, if they want to use internal options it's a much better idea to use safer menstrual products such as menstrual cups - as well as safer these are more convenient and reliable so make menstruation easier too. If a young person does use tampons they need to be mature enough to understand the risks and responsible enough to follow precautions in order to reduce their risk of issues like vaginal infections and Toxic Shock Syndrome (TSS).

What happens to a first time tampon user?
Nothing happens to a first-time tampon user.A person uses tampons for the first time and that's it - using a tampon doesn't change a person in any way. As long as the user is relaxed and using tampons correctly they will simply insert the tampon and it will absorb flow just like it's supposed to. It's no different to any other time they use tampons.

You almost fainted when replacing a tampon?
This can sometimes happen when a woman gets nervous about using tampons for the first time. If this wasn't your first time inserting a tampon it may have been that you accidently hit your vegus nerve, which can cause you to feel faint or even black out - it's nothing to worry about.
How do you know if the tampons in correctly?
You should only be able to see the string, it should be comfy (although even if it's in right it can feel weird the first few times), and if you put the first bit of finger in your vgina, you shouldn't be able to feel the actual tampon.
When you insert a tampon for the first time is it supposed to hurt a little bit for a short time?
No, it's not supposed to hurt when you insert a tampon.Most likely it hurts because you were tensing-up so having to push the tampon against vaginal walls, or it can also be painful if you don't insert the tampon far enough - the first few inches of the vagina are the narrowest and most sensitive. Make sure to relax next time and use lubricant to help with insertion.
Does every girls cherry pop the first time?
No, not every girl experiences their hymen breaking (sometimes referred to as "popping the cherry") during their first sexual experience. The hymen can be stretched or broken through various activities like exercise or tampon use, and its presence or absence should not be equated with virginity.

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.
When you wipe you have blood but when i put a tampon in theres nothing?
Well depending on how long your tampon has been in. When you first put the tampon in there should be no blood when you wipe, the tampon should absorb it up, after a few hours and depending on your flow, you might start to notice some blood when you wipe. When that happens you should probably change your tampon to avoid leaking or staining. Good Luck

Should you wear a tampon to a sports physical?
No you shd wear a pad so when the doctor has to look down there you don't have to pull it out and be left with nothing for you period the rest of the time. Unless you bring another tampon for after your doctor looks at your vagina.
Why does putting in a tampon hurt at first?
Because your body isn't used to them, and you are probably really tight so i recommend either using smaller tampons, or just wait it out a bit and after a while, you will get used to them and your vagina will stretch out to fit the tampon.
