What can a 13 year old use for lubricant?

At the age of 13, you are still considered a minor, therefore it would be best to ask your parents or a medical adviser/teacher at school. This would enable you to get an informed opinion without common myths included, and to not use harmful products.

A need for a lubricant in a young female can indicate that, either there is not enough foreplay, or her body is not mature and ready for this activity. Discuss with your doctor and have a gynecological exam to determine if your body is ready.

Once you have talked to a medical professional or other adult for correct information, the answer will depend on whether you are a male or female.

For males, there are a few lubricants made specifically for the purpose that you can obtain over the counter, however it does rely on personal preference and how much you want to spend on the products. Some males, when going solo, like to use an oil (such as baby oil), or lotion (fragrance free would be the better choice). Whereas, some prefer to just hop into the shower and use the good old soapy water. With a female partner, you must consider how the product will affect her body, too. Oils, lotions and soaps are not recommended for this use and can result in vaginal irritation or infection.

For these reasons, females should not use lubricants or oils that are not made specifically for the purpose of internal application. These can be unsafe for girls or women (baby oil or soaps, for example). Only products that are water soluble should be used for vaginal application. KY-jelly is a good choice, or there are, again, specific products for use available over the counter. If this is for self pleasure, and there will be no vaginal penetration, then baby oil could be used, but other products would still be a preference even for this use. Soaps, fragrances, and other products not for the purpose can cause irritation or infection. The vagina has some built-in protection against bacteria, but this can be bypassed if the pH is changed by improper product use or if the "good bacteria" are killed by soaps or products not for vaginal application.

Note: if you are not going solo, sexual activity with a minor is illegal in the US.

How and when do boys learn to be boys?

If this means maturing, it happens during puberty, which occurs throughout the teen years. Although, some boys never mature, or they may not fully mature.

Is it possible to put a tampon too far in?

No, it's not possible to push a tampon in too far.

The vagina is only a few inches in length and at the top of the vaginal canal is the cervix which will prevent the tampon from going any further. A tampon thus can go no further than your vaginal canal as there's nowhere else for it to go, the vaginal canal is essentially a dead end. You can only push the tampon in so far with your finger or an applicator too as it won't reach any further.

Is it possible to poop out a tampon 2 days later after being lost in your vagina?

yes...This has happended to me a million times...It will come out the shiter don't worry...And don't go to the gyno they are all just a bunch of rapeists. NO it is NOT possible for a tampon to move from the vaginal wall to the intestine. Unless you put it there. People should NOT be giving that sort of answer. If you have a tampon in for more than several hours at a time between changes, you are at risk for TSS. READ the info that comes in the tampon box people! If you had a bowel movement and noticed the tampon in the toilet, chances are you just pushed too hard and it came out of the vagina. Seriously, look at a medical encyclopedia once in a while people. I can't believe some of the answers on here. @@

What should you do if your mom wont get you acne cream?

Wash as often as you can with soap and water. Acne is caused when a build up of oil or bacteria holds a pore closed and the pore swells, so if you can keep your face clean, and pop the blockage off of acne you do develop, you will be better off.

On popping acne:

Don't Scrape (leaves scaring)

Pop with 2 fingernails and then apply disinfectant to prevent disease.

When do girls grow their breasts?

The usual evidence puberty has begun in girls is initial breast growth, called breast budding, because the first breast growth happens with small nodules or lumps just under the nipples (and not always at the same time, but sometimes one before the other). Over the course of puberty, as the breasts grow and develop further, it's normal for developing breasts or breast buds to feel tender, or even hurt a little. Breast development is going on through the whole of puberty, including changes in the size and shape of the aureola, or nipple area. By the end of puberty, breasts will be the basic size and shape they'll have through most of life, but some changes do still occur over time, due to age, hormonal changes, levels of body fat, gravity, and pregnancy and childbearing, if and when those occur (and FYI: brassieres have NEVER been shown to make any difference per breast aging and changes over time). Generally, around menarche, young women will have done much of their peak growth in terms of height and bone mass As your hips are widening and you're building up body fat (which you need to menstruate and fully mature), sometimes you may find you look or feel pretty awkward, and that body fat decides to live in weird-looking places for a while. By the time you're through with your teens, it'll all even out.

What does your mum mean?
