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.

Using tampons shouldn't hurt at all as long as you're relaxed and using tampons correctly.

Inserting tampons can hurt if you're using too high an absorbency for your flow as there'll be increased friction and drying, or if using commercial tampons you may be allergic to the ingredients in these type of tampon. If you're tense vaginal muscles tense causing vaginal walls to clench together so you may have to force the tampon against vaginal walls which can hurt, also if angle is incorrect you may be pushing the tampon into the side of the vaginal canal.

Whether the first time or any other time makes no difference - your vagina is no different so no reason why inserting a tampon the first time should hurt. If it hurts to insert the tampon it's either because you're too tense or because you're not using the tampon correctly. Make sure to relax and ensure that you're using the correct absorbency for your flow, also try lubricant prior to use too.

It wouldn't hurt the baby, but why would you put in a tampon, if you're pregnant you don't have your period.


Does putting in a tampon hurt im really scared?

Inserting a tampon should not hurt - being a virgin makes no difference as to whether it will hurt or not because sex doesn't change your vagina in any way - if scared there's no reason to use tampons. When it comes to inserting tampons you're in control so if you do start to feel pain then you just have to stop and address the cause of the pain. As long as you're relaxed and use tampons correctly it shouldn't hurt.

Dose putting in a tampon hurt?

Using tampons shouldn't hurt, although it can be uncomfortable.Tampons can be uncomfortable because they dry-out the vagina and because they can expand into the cervix so increase menstrual cramps. As long as you're relaxed and insert tampons correctly they shouldn't hurt, if you're tensed-up tampon insertion may be painful as you may have to force the tampon into the vagina and if not inserted high enough muscles will push against the tampon as you move. Make sure you're using lowest absorbency for your flow too, if your flow isn't heavy enough then tampons will dry-out the vagina more and friction will cause small vaginal tears.

Why does it hurt when I push my tampon plunger in?

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.


I'm terrified to put a tampon in so I need help?

It's not that terrible. Trust me.It will be less terrifying if you use plastic tampons. cardboard ones are much more uncomfortable. Make sure your flow is heavy so it doesn't hurt when you pull it out because if you have a dried bloody tampon it'll hurt!There is only one comfortable place to put in your tampon. Don't try putting it into your poo hole. it would be very bothering to put it in the pee hole, so there must be one right in the middle!Relax. To make it fast, pull the tampon out of the plastic tube just a tiny bit so you can take out the plastic tube faster. when you know the whole tampon is in, gently pull out the plastic tube.It's okay if you don't get it in the first time. It may take at least 3 tries the first time you try it.You're pretty much done! don't keep your tampon on for more than 8 hours. The average is about 1 - 3 hours. just pull the string out slowly.


Is pain normal after retrieving a stuck tampon?

Whether it's normal to feel pain after retrieving a 'stuck' tampon depends on what you mean by it being 'stuck', what you did to retrieve it, and how long afterwards it continues to hurt. If the tampon was 'stuck' because it was too dry then it would have caused vaginal tearing and irritation so would hurt. If the tampon was 'stuck' because you were tense and you had to force it out that would hurt too. If you're experiencing pain days or weeks after removal then you may be looking at an infection.


Can you loose the baby if you insert a tampon in your virgina?

Does it hurt when you put a tampon in that's bigger?

Tampon size isn't an issue, remember that your vagina is designed to accommodate things far bigger than a tampon, but tampon absorbency is an issue. Tampons dry-out vaginal tissues causing small tears in the vaginal walls, thus if you use too big an absorbency for your flow then it will have more of a drying effect so cause more tears - thus higher risk of TSS and more likely to cause discomfort. As long as you're relaxed and use the correct absorbency for your flow tampon use shouldn't hurt at all.
