Simply: applicator tampons have an applicator, non-applicator tampons don't.
Applicators were originally included with tampons because the Catholic church was concerned about women touching their own genitals, they continue to be popular in the US because of attitudes Americans have towards female anatomy. Non-applicator are a better option as they're simpler, more hands-on, and give better control so they're easier to insert - also it means less waste.
With the average woman using around 12,000-16,000 tampons in her lifetime, adding that amount of plastic to landfill too represents a significant environmental impact.
An applicator tampon is a device which uses two tubes to help the tampon more easily into you. It works by one tube being inside the other with the tampon inside, you simply push the whole 1st tube in to your opening and then push the bottom of the 2nd tube to allow the tampon to be pushed upwards. Then all you have to do is dispose of the tubes in a sanitary bin. A non applicator tampon does not use this tubing device but instead requires you to use only your hand to insert the tampon.
One has an applicator, one doesn't.
Applicators were introduced as the Catholic Church was uncomfortable with the idea of women touching their own genitals, today applicators are mostly only used by American women due to cultural attitudes towards genitals. Applicators are normally made from cardboard or plastic, thus adding to the environmental impact of tampon use, they consist of two tubes and pushing the inner tube into the outer tube pushes the tampon out of the applicator and into the vagina.
Non-applicator tampons are inserted digitally, that is you push the tampon into the vagina with a finger, typically applicator tampons have smooth coating and a slender tip for easier insertion.
An applicater has an applicater used to push the tampon in, unlike a nonapplicater tampon where you have to push it in yourself
If you insert the tampon applicator past the grip, you may find it challenging to remove the applicator, but I'm sure you will get it out. There is no great concern.
Tampon sticks are sticks that are used to push tampons into place. They are a basic form of applicator.
They are very small and fit in your hand so when you go to the bathroom to insert it, no one will know you have a tampon. Also you have to pull the applicator stick out until it clicks, then you are ready to go!
You might be uncomfortable, and the tampon would not be able to expand and function normally.
You first put your thumb and middle finger on the applicator and insert the tampon. Make sure the tampon goes all the way in and only the string is hanging out. Then remove the applicator and throw it away.
OB is simply a brand of non-applicator tampon. You would use them the same way as you would any other conventional tampon.
The plastic part of the tampon doesn't stay inside you. It's the applicator that helps you insert the tampon. You insert the applicator part way, until the ridged "grips" are at the opening of the vagina. Then you push the bottom part of the applicator to insert the tampon into your vagina, then remove both parts of the applicator. If this isn't obvious from my description, try inserting it into a "pretend" vagina that you make with your fisted hand. One practice run ought to make it clearer.
You cannot. It has to be snaked out or the toliet bowl replaced.
Pushing down on the plunger of the applicator is what pushes the tampon into the vagina.There are many reasons why inserting tampons may hurt including you being too tense when inserting, inserting at the wrong angle, or using too high an absorbency. It would help if you were to use a non-applicator tampon to improve control and feel for resistance to insert the tampon correctly.
To insert a tampon, wash your hands, then unwrap the tampon and find a comfortable position (sitting, standing, or squatting). Hold the tampon applicator and insert it into your vagina at a slight angle until your fingers touch your body, then push the applicator to release the tampon. Make sure the string is hanging outside your body for easy removal. Remember to change your tampon every 4-8 hours.
It is a new(er) design of internal tampon. Apparently more absorbent with a slightly different applicator. More of a marketing ploy than anything really new.
1. wash your hands and take out the tampon. 2. Take wrapper off. 3. Then spread open your legs and open the hole to your vagina. 4. Insert the tampon going up. 5. Push both parts together. Make sure your hands are clean so that you dont have blood on them. But first when you spread legs make sure nobodys watching. It also helps to grunt when putting in. And then smack legs together when done. And help other people if they need iit. And look at package.
