hot tea ikr i’m embarrassed and scared to ask anyone about this. i’m to embarrassed to ask for pads!! there are some in my sisters bathroom but they SUCK. they are cheap ones so they don’t stick well and there’s only two types in there REALLY BULKY PADS and then SUPER small ones that i can’t wear bc they are so small if i wear them i’ll leak through.
julia sebree Don’t be embarrassed to ask for pads! I get being embarrassed to ask for help to put a tampon in but for a pad, they don’t really care lol
"for beginners or tweens" me: *cries in 17 year old* UPDATE: AT THE RIPE AGE OF 20 I FINALLY DID IT!!!! it was definitely a bit uncomfy knowing it was in there & i could feel it but it didnt hurt so i know i did it right! it felt like it was coming out but it wasnt, i just had to trust it LOL! taking it out was a little difficult because it wanted to cling in there, but keep at it girls!! you'll all get there!! go at your own pace & if you realize it isnt for you then it just isnt for you & thats okay!! no shame here :)
@@cmeteryxdrive whyy go ahead do be scared! You should enjoy the pool and life and some blood shouldn’t stop you! I just put my first tampon in and I was so scared 😩 blood everywhere it was not the best. But now i can do sports more freely! ( even tho in every movement that i make I’m so scared it will fall 🌚)
I am proud of you girls and ladies who are trying tampons for the first time. I'm 23 and I've been using pads since I got my period cause I could never insert a tampon like for real I couldn't even try it, just the thought of inserting it inside me is making me hella scared and anxious tbh. I think you guys are so brave.
thankyou!! i’m 17 and just applied my first tampon and it was easy when you relax and make sure it’s in there properly!! if you want to try tampons again i’d say go for it but if not it’s okay sticking with pads. i used pads before and it always made me uncomfortable and anxious but tampons work better for me! you’ll get used to it. YOU ARE SO BRAVE TOO!! 🥺🤎🤎
@@zipporahmurray5652 being a virgin has nothing to do with this. I lost my virginity a long time ago and I still have anxiety about sticking a tampon in😐.
m o o d but i have a lot of respect for you dude. a lot of women wish they knew a guy who actually had sympathy for how hard it is to be a girl/woman. it's also a really good thing for guys to be educated on this, not only so they can know the level of difficulty it takes to be a woman, but also they actually know the science behind everything so they get a better understanding of how to comfort women in their life effectively.
This video has helped me SO much. I was so scared to put in a tampon for the first time, but I knew it was time since I had to go swimming. I am 11 years old. I followed her steps and everything went successful! She explains things so clearly, thank you Dr. Kathy!
@@alexlightning5512no fr i’m 15 and putting in a tampon for the first time ever bc of a swim meet 😭 i fr got lucky i never got mine at a meet before somehow even though ive been swimming for years
Hey, 23-year-old -- had a breakdown at 13-years-old trying a tampon and haven't really tried since then -- offering support. Finally gonna try again this period. ✊
@@pineapple5511 tampons hurt coming out usually if they are too dry. You may not have had a heavy flow, the tampon absorbency was too high (ex: don’t use a super tampon towards the end of your period when the flow is light), or you only had the tampon in for a short period of time.
1. Why don’t they teach this in school. 2. Can we please have partners this is so scary lmao. Edit: I got the tampon in eventually. I'm not a fan of them, I'll def stick to pads until I feel comfortable using tampons. If you're struggling getting it in stay calm. The worst thing to do is get stressed
Omg my friend got her first period at track today and she didn’t have anything and all I had was a tampon and she had no idea what to do so I had to put it in for her 😂😭🤷🏼♀️😂
You the real MVP then dude , most of my friends are females so when they are on theyre periods im like yall need any choclate or anything 😂 im like the candy stasher for my friends
I felt embarrassed bc I’m 20 & have never used tampons before. I just tried today and think I got it first try!!! Ladies I know it seems scary but I promise you’ll get it. I didn’t know where the hole was either but I just slid it around till I found it. It’ll work out don’t worry!!
I watched this while attempting to insert it in for the first time. I’m 21 and have been using pads my whole life. It took a good 10 minutes and I was weak in the hands and laughing the whole way through at how uncomfortable it felt + how the video explained it. My one doesn’t have an applicator like so many tutorials, but still did it! You can all do this!!! XOX
If it’s your first time and it’s hurting, just know you can do this. I believe in you and you’re strong. It will be over soon and eventually you’ll be able to do it without trying! I’m here for you!
thank you i really need this right now. my mom is going to be at work and i have a soccer game. i know that if i can get it in today i can do it for whenever i need it. pads are uncomfortable and my flow is heavy today. i just need some motivation and this is really helping. my mom has put a tampon in for me and it didn’t hurt so i don’t know why i’m freaking out but i am. when she took it out my guts hurt for a very long time after. sorry just needed to rant bc i’m sitting here freaking tf out.
@@buscemisteve9055 it’s okay! Sorry I’m replying late. If it hurts to take out then run a shallow bath. And take it out in there 💞💞 because it hurts when the tampon isn’t full x
SAME!! i’m just gonna try it, i tried it once before and it hurt because i think i was too dry and i just took my moms super tampon and i put it in upwards
bruh i tried to tell my family about what if they made swimming pads cause i’m afraid to use tampons and they laughed at me and said why would you want to swim in a diaper. Now i’m crying on the toilet trying to put in a tampon 😃
In my experience period swimsuits are a bit iffy tho, cuz it's essentially a pad in your swimsuit, and it fills up with both water AND blood that mixes together and then when you would've been dripping water you end up dripping bloody water. Unfortunately speaking from experience here
I am 25 and I still have never gotten a tampon in correctly. I want to start trying again but I am nervous. It's okay. It doesn't matter how old you are-- it can be scary putting something inside your body for the first time.
Omg I'm freakin 30 and doing dishes in my house with headphones on and when I heard that knock I dropped my sponge and went right back to the time I was trying to sort out tampons and heard someone outside the door. That anxiety does cool down after a while, ladies. Don't forget there is nothing wrong or unusual about what you're doing no matter what your preference is. Love how considerate this video is.
It may be. Some women can't put a tampon in because their vaginal opening is very small. I have seen several women for that very reason. So, if you have concerns, I recommend that you see a gynecologist.
Well 1. Both objects she used for the demos the holes in those were WAY bigger then a normal vagina. So don’t worry vaginas are not meant to be that big. And 2. I felt mine was way to small too at first. But if you just keep trying and trying it will eventually work. And I won’t lie and say it wasn’t uncomfortable. But it will get better.
I was like that too but you have to explore that part of your body, its super awkward but if you can fit one finger, you'll be able to fit a tampon. And as you mature, it opens on its own.
me too a single finger barely fits but i can’t put a tampon in while i’m sitting on the toilet or something, i need to stand up with my legs straight hahaha
My mother just taught me how to put it in I felt that too and I kept saying it’s too small or saying it won’t go further and she said to keep punching and so I did all of a sudden it went in so easily and I was honestly shocked lol
10 yr old tryna learn this because I'm getting signs that im gonna get it. My face has changed a million times while seeing this but , I think I understood it. thank you so much!
I’m so scared to try a tampon but I have to for a swimming party today.. i hope it will go well Edit: IT WENT SO WELL! Trying a tampon was scary but it worked in the end cuz I did not give up
Natalie Plays I have a swim party tmrw and I just got my period but do tampons hurt to put in?! And do they hurt after u have put it in?! I’m so nervous 😂😭
Rheanne Reyna it really depends on how you put it in. The basics are; 45 degree angle. In the tissue (bout to get graphic) there’s a small hole, that’s where you insert it downwards. It will feel very odd, but that’s mainly because you mainly are a first timer, and it’s very important to keep track of time. (TSS) you have to touch the skin around the vagina, or else it may 1, pop out, or 2, it will be much more uncomfortable. After a while you shouldn’t feel it, and also make sure the string is tuck3 in, otherwise somebody might pull on it accidentally, and now for getting it out. This part in my opinion is much more difficult. Getting it out. So this part for me, really hurt because your insides want to keep it there, and your telling otherwise. And you have to be relaxed. If this is your first time, I recommend pulling slowly. Stop if you tense up, cause then that will be a whole lot harder. Remember, some cannot fit tampons, and if that’s you then good luck.
im lucky im doing this after a shower so the door is locked, but if i was doing this in my room, *crys in i dont how this tampon works and now they are gonna find out*
Okay so the first year I got my period, I didn’t know what holes there were, I was so confused and everything. I’m 18 now and I just found this video! I GOT IT IN WHOO HOO!! It took like 5 tries and it hurts a lil right now but I’m so happy cause I really feel like a woman. You guys got this. It just takes trial and error
@@flqralxsofia720 sooo basically after like crying for half an hour i put it in and it was uncomfortable and didn't feel right and it hurt a bit and wasn't all the way in so i took it out and i just sat by the pool lol. I feel a lot more comfortable to the idea now though and understand how it works better and i am just gonna keep on trying it out every now and then until i feel comfortable with it.
Their is a thing at the top that kinda looks like gum, get a mirror and spread it open and once you do that you should see the hole, hope this helps, I know it’s kinda hard!
It was on my 7th tampon I did it successfully, and this video helped greatly! (I watched it after my 5th failed attempt). Tips: 1. She’s right, if you need to, get a mirror, use your phone flashlight lying on the ground if you gotta (poor lighting in my bathroom), and use one hand to part your vaginal lips. 2. Don’t insert at all if it’s dry down there. Or else serious pain and discomfort will follow. Either use a lubricant or don’t be afraid to get some blood on your hands, as the blood serves as a lubricant cos it’s slippery. (It’s ok if you feel grossed out I said that 😅) 3. She’s correct about the 45 degree angle. Don’t think too hard on it. And yes, position it exactly as she said holding it almost like a pencil, then pushing it in after that point when you insert. 4. Patience. Patience. Patience. I’m a pad girl, but dagnabit I’m not gonna sit when it’s hot when I can go swimming and live a less gross period life, which pads don’t help with Ladies, YOU got this!
What if youre trying to put one on in a public school bathroom😳 (not my current situation, it hasnt even started yet, but I had a false alarm today and I was terrified)
@@izukumidoriya7425 I'd be intentional in my house bathroom the next free time I have! =) It's always good to be prepared; and a false alarm like that is a cautionary tale I'd want to avoid. Glad it was a false alarm for you though! But you got this! (@ ur own pace tho ^.^)
girls don’t be embarrassed!! that’s why we are all here for eachother and to help answer questions and share personal experiences with it!! it’s okay if you’ve never tried a tampon. never feel ashamed. i tried to put one in and it just couldn’t stay in even at the smallest one. try sticking with pads until you feel ready. don’t feel rushed!!
There’s really no tip for asking for more tampons, you just gotta ask. Don’t be scared; She’s a woman, she gets it. Also, if you feel like you’re hitting a wall right away you’re probably not putting it in the right angle. If you’re sitting on a toilet, try going downwards like the lady said (that worked for me.) Or maybe it’s just a mental block: you’re scared of putting it in so as soon as you meet resistance you stop. This seems kinda gross, but try practicing with your fingers first. It’s pretty scary to put a foreign object in your body, and this will help you get used to it. Start with your pinky since it’s the smallest. And go slow! You don’t have to put it in all at once, just put in a little, take a break when you feel overwhelmed and just try to put in a little more next time. It took me several tries and it’s gonna feel weird at first, but it doesn’t hurt as long as you go slow. I hope this helps :)
Her: you're going to want to get the smallest one me with a medium sized one: 👁👄👁 edit: omg someone replied and it reminded me that i should update thst i know how to use tampons now
when you’re 15 and your mom left and you’ve been using pads for 3 years and you finally decided you’re tired of it so you look this up and you did it on the first try 😌
Hi everyone, sorry for sneaking in. I am a guy watching these videos to actually see what my gf goes through every period . I’m just shocked that it’s not just the pain you 💪strong girls/women have to deal with but also at how hard it is to keep up with these measures . I just have more and more respect for y’all and it seems like i have to give my loved ones loads of hugs more than ever 😊. Stay safe stay strong y’all 🙌
@@lee-hv1el Haha sorry for late reply but ofc, i understand and ik how painful and stressful it is but y'all are strong tho and tysm hope ur doing well :)
Y'all... I DID IT It freaked me out at first but I did it! Don't let fear stop you! Like, it scared the s**t out of me, but I fought through and got it! I actually gave up but when I tried again it worked. Love you all and good luck!!!💞
Wow. Thank you so much for this informative video. I'm 26 years old, and I haven't attempted to use tampons since I was maybe 13 or 14 years old, when I didn't know the proper technique, struggled on the toilet for ten minutes, then gave up and resigned myself to pads for years after that experience. Today, I got the tampon in successfully after two tries, with barely any leakage (I wore a pad for backup). I don't have the kind of close relationship with my mom that I wish I had, so I'm unable to go to her for reproductive health questions. Thank you for helping us navigate through this!!! 💛
i am a 13 year old dancer and i want to use one for my dance competitions but i was always scared that i would put it in he wrong hole! this helped so much thank you !!
I’m a dancer too and I’ve got class all the time and I know how to put one in, I’ve put one in before, but I’m so scared to go out in public with one ahhhh
This reminds me of a test everyone in the comments freaking out because people are finishing the test way faster than them so they are freaking out and trying to rush to do it faster before they be the last to do it
for everyone watching this who CANNOT get it in, it took me literally 15+ times and I have FINALLY done it. The angle is so important. Keep moving it around until you get the perfect angle. I have just turned 14 and unfortunately got it straight after by birthday for the first time, if I can do it so can you!! Don't give up xox
hi there to anyone watching this, if you need some more help, i have some tips for you!! this seems like a lot but it really isn’t and will help you so much!! but one tip is to move it around if you can’t get it in all the way because you have to get it in at an angle. but you probably will need to get a couple tries before actually doing it correctly. also make sure you have pushed it in all the way. (to make sure you are doing it right, hold the grip and push it in until your fingers touch your skin.) also when about to push it in, make sure you don’t rest your fingers or hands while doing so because the tampon can end up staying in the same spot with the applicator going down instead of it going up. you’ve got this!!!
OMG I DID IT! MY FIRST TIME AND IT WASNT AS HARD AS I THOUGHT IT WOULD!! ITS EASY GUYS JUST RELAX AND MAKE SURE IT GOES IT SMOOTHLY :)) [pads always made me feel uncomfortable and anxious but with tampons i feel like it’s more secure and i’m less freaked out. thankyou!!]
I had a breakdown in the bathroom cause i couldn't put the tampon in and im going swimming tomorrow with my sister idk what to do so im watching tutorials on how to put in tampons 😭
Y'all it went in!!!!!!! For anyone who is still trying, relax and take a deep breath. Don't rush yourselves and just stick to pads for the time being. You got this.
nobody important 1. You are somebody very important to me!!! 2. Make sure that you use the smallest tampon you can find. 3. You can put a lubricant on the tampon 4. You can see if you can figure out the direction of your vagina with your finger first Good luck
catjm if your vagina isn’t already wet, you can use lube. Don’t use too much, just a little on the tip of the tampon should do. ((I’m no expert, that’s just what’s worked with me))
I got my period when I was 12 and I'm now 15. I have never used a tampon cuz I'm scared😂But now that I watched this video..... I think I'll just stick with pads. Way much easier even if it is uncomfortable sometimes.
{ LovelyKimmy } i’m about to be 15 in a month and same i got mine when i was 12. i’ve never used a tampon but i really hate pads. THEY ARE SO UNCOMFORTABLE IT FEELS LIKE YOUR WEARING A DIAPER AND IT MAKES NOISE WHEN YOU WALK. so i’m probably gonna try a tampon today😬
{ LovelyKimmy } i’ll let u know i’m probably gonna do it today bc i didn’t wanna do it last night since i was going to sleep. i’m really scared but i’m just gonna go for it😂
@The End do you endure pain for a week before squirting blood out of your body every month? (Laughing as I type this, literally the weirdest sentence I have ever typed)
@The End they have very right to be. It’s different for every girl so it hurts more for some and hurts less for others. You don’t know what the physical pain of it is. Jsut shut up. Just because you have had girlfriends doesn’t mean you can say that shit.
Besties, it worked after 5 TRIES! It’s definitely scary, but You got this! Tips: - it may feel very uncomfortable at first but if you slightly wiggle it as your putting it in, it can help you find the “tunnel”! - stay calm! The calmer you are, the easier it will be! - if it gets stuck because it’s dry & you didn’t get it in all the way: use either a lubricant or gently peel your skin off of it SLOWLY so nothing rips! It was so scary but it’s SO worth it! Good luck!!
I just want to add that nothing will rip when you are taking out a tampon! It can feel uncomfortable and if your period is light, it can be. a bit painful if your tampon is dry but YOU WILL NOT RIP ANYTHING! Just go very slowly and take breaks if it hurts. It will be fine and you can try again another time.
@Father Louis Willam Suga Adams the third I wasted like 5 tampons it goes halfway in and then I have to put more pressure which I am not able to do.. it kinda hurts when I try to put it more in..but I wish someone could just put it all the way in for me 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
@@madisoncarver9641 okay so I’m a pro at it now 4 months later and I found it easier to sit on the toilet with your legs spread but easier angle it a bit towards your back, it’s a bit uncomfortable the first few times but it gets better. And when taking out don’t yank it slowly pull it out
I did everything wrong. That 10 minute breakdown in the bathroom was for nothing. Everything still hurts though so- Edit: Just got out the shower and put it in. I'm so glad I did it. Now I just gotta learn how to walk again.
Omg girl I put it in but Im almost over so it was pretty dry and it hurt so bad tryna get it out I was crying so I dipped my cooter in the toilet water
Got my first period in December, it's been almost a year and I used my first tampon today thanks to you. I had no idea I needed to click it first, you're so helpful THANK YOU!!

GIRL IVE BEEN HERE FOR 30 MINUTES NOW N TRYING TO GET IT IN AND IVE BEEN HAVING A MENTAL BREAK DOWN BUT I TRIED DOING IT IN BED AND OMG I GOT IT IN AND I FEEL SO MUCH BETTER!!! Also, when I put it in, I didn’t hurt, but it was hurting before because I was doing it wrong. So try doing it on your bed or laying down???
Back a year or so ago, my swim team was coming up, and I had recently gotten my period and didn't want any leakage. I was so lucky to have a mom who taught me everything, even inserted one herself for me so I could see how it felt, and i eventually got it and its amazing. Just be careful when you near the end of your period because if you pull it out with not enough blood, it can hurt a little.
@damarissarahihidalgo8562 oh no!! That's too bad that she doesn't support them. :( Just go at your own pace and don't be scared to feel around down there with your fingers in the shower. It's easier to insert one when you're actually on your period too. Hope this helps :)
@@damarissarahihidalgo8562 Some moms don't like tampons because they're afraid of TSS, she's simply afraid for you, is all. Maybe talk to her about it if you're comfortable :)
@allanm2064 oh my goodness!! I don't even know how you manged to get it in your butthole (it's smaller and less stretchy) just remember, if it hurts, it's wrong 😊
emilia Lo wait is it normal to feel like that? Cuz I put it in an inch I couldn’t push it in more cuz it hurt but after I feel really thirsty n tired and like I wanted to throw up and pass out
I have to go swimming tomorrow (im 12 btw) and im on my period and i have to use a tampon for the first ever time and i was really nervous but this video helped a lot i feel ready for tomorrow
@Arabella Katz you don't have to change it after every single class! every 3-4 hours. also if you use tampons you most likely won't get an infection, just remember to change it every 3ish hours :))
Lauren Zych it isn't actually that scary what i was told by my brothers girlfriend is it may hurt a little cos nothing ever been up there but just kinda shove it up there if it hurts to much then your not ready to use one
how to put in a tampon: *step 1* : go back to being in my mother’s womb and become a man *step 2* : i don’t need a tampon anymore😙 UPDATE I DID IT LADIES!!! YOU GOT THIS💗💗💗
bruh i got a whole mirror down there and why does genitalia have to look so DISGUSTING. anyways i open my lips then just stare at it like 👁👄👁 i’m literally crying
(GROSS TMI WARNING lol) My lips are like dangly (EWW I know sorry) but it’s so uncomfortable and I don’t even know if the tampon will fit ughghh I’m panicking I need this for school aaaahahahnahahahajjsjejdnnsks
i’ve had my period for 3 years and never used a tampon. i finally did it today. it didn’t hurt super bad but i could feel it going in obviously but afterwards like right after i got up and i didn’t like it i took it out and put on a pad immediately. i had a bad experience when i took it out i felt light headed and nauseous, i am currently laying on the floor in-front of my fan. i’m sticking to pads!
I'm honestly just a lil 11 year old who has no absolute clue on tampons or how to insert them so I just wanna thank you for this. I would've stuck to pads but I have a dance competition and I needed to use one and I freaked out but this helped me a lot so thank you so much for this :)
A few years ago when I was around 15 and was wanting to use tampons I couldn’t. It felt like I was hitting a brick wall. Turns out it’s because I have/had vaginismus . I went to physical therapy for it and it only took I would say 5 months to “cure” it. I think that is something that should be covered so more girls know about what it is, because I was clueless and confused for a long time. (Vaginismus is the involuntary spasms of the vaginal wall and it makes any kind of penetration almost impossible and painful)
We have three of them but insert the tampon in the middle one underneath the clitoris, The middle one is the vagina (The place you’re supposed to insert it in).
Thank you sooooo much I’m 12 and I have had me period for a long time and I have always been to scared now I did it! Thanks for your help. Your a real life saver!! 🙃🙃🥳

but i have a lot of respect for you dude. a lot of women wish they knew a guy who actually had sympathy for how hard it is to be a girl/woman. it's also a really good thing for guys to be educated on this, not only so they can know the level of difficulty it takes to be a woman, but also they actually know the science behind everything so they get a better understanding of how to comfort women in their life effectively.
You better be
pads are so much easier but it’s just so uncomfortable. i can’t lie down without feeling the blood. and UCK sometimes it goes down ur bum 🤢
Stupid Reply : tampons stop that tho. i only wear pads to sleep
I agree
I tried tampons for the first time today and it hurt like a bitch taking it out.
Haley Troxell Bro it’s clearly a girl what would a boy know about periods
I’m only using pads tampons hurt badly or my period undies
This video has helped me SO much. I was so scared to put in a tampon for the first time, but I knew it was time since I had to go swimming. I am 11 years old. I followed her steps and everything went successful! She explains things so clearly, thank you Dr. Kathy!
ugh being a girl and a swimmer is the WORST.
@@alexlightning5512no fr i’m 15 and putting in a tampon for the first time ever bc of a swim meet 😭 i fr got lucky i never got mine at a meet before somehow even though ive been swimming for years
ive literally had an anxiety attack every time ive tried to put in a tampon ITS SO FRUSTRATING AND I CANT DO IT
It's completely okay! I'm scared to do it😰
i’m literally about to cry i can’t do it
Analisa Alvey lmao did u do it
Same
I did it my first time today. It hurts when I take it out.
Tell me why I’m a 20 year old female who’s only used pads and I’m about to have a panic attack trying this
Omgggg, you're me 😰❤️

Same here. I wanted to use tampons for years but my mom wouldn't help me.
these comments 😭😭 i thought i was weird for crying i’m almost 18 and i can’t get it in y’all are making me feel so loved

So I’m tired of pads
@@pineapple5511 ikr 😭 I’m having a metal breakdown because I can’t find the right hole and it hurts 😭🤚
don’t feel bad i’m younger and tampons are so hard to use OMG
@@pineapple5511 tampons hurt coming out usually if they are too dry. You may not have had a heavy flow, the tampon absorbency was too high (ex: don’t use a super tampon towards the end of your period when the flow is light), or you only had the tampon in for a short period of time.
1. Why don’t they teach this in school. 2. Can we please have partners this is so scary lmao.
Edit: I got the tampon in eventually. I'm not a fan of them, I'll def stick to pads until I feel comfortable using tampons. If you're struggling getting it in stay calm. The worst thing to do is get stressed
Facts I’m so scared and un comfy
Pleaseeeee what if I pull it out and the string comes out

Don't try it If you are not on your period bc its not wet enough and it hurts more😩

Did you ever get it?
Wondering the same thing rn
SAME THERES LIKE 80 IN THE TRASH
I wasted my money buying tampons 😑😑😭
MEEE
I watched this while attempting to insert it in for the first time. I’m 21 and have been using pads my whole life. It took a good 10 minutes and I was weak in the hands and laughing the whole way through at how uncomfortable it felt + how the video explained it. My one doesn’t have an applicator like so many tutorials, but still did it! You can all do this!!! XOX
If it’s your first time and it’s hurting, just know you can do this. I believe in you and you’re strong. It will be over soon and eventually you’ll be able to do it without trying! I’m here for you!
thank you i really need this right now. my mom is going to be at work and i have a soccer game. i know that if i can get it in today i can do it for whenever i need it. pads are uncomfortable and my flow is heavy today. i just need some motivation and this is really helping. my mom has put a tampon in for me and it didn’t hurt so i don’t know why i’m freaking out but i am. when she took it out my guts hurt for a very long time after. sorry just needed to rant bc i’m sitting here freaking tf out.
@@buscemisteve9055 it’s okay! Sorry I’m replying late. If it hurts to take out then run a shallow bath. And take it out in there 💞💞 because it hurts when the tampon isn’t full x

Summer Barnes same I’m gonna get my period as we’re going to the beach so.... this’ll be fun 😭😭😭
bruh i tried to tell my family about what if they made swimming pads cause i’m afraid to use tampons and they laughed at me and said why would you want to swim in a diaper. Now i’m crying on the toilet trying to put in a tampon 😃
OOF, sorry about that 😟
Swimming pads exist !!!
@@oliviaclark22 Wait, what?
@@ey8767 yeah i know. And you can also get period swimming suit
In my experience period swimsuits are a bit iffy tho, cuz it's essentially a pad in your swimsuit, and it fills up with both water AND blood that mixes together and then when you would've been dripping water you end up dripping bloody water. Unfortunately speaking from experience here
Thanks. I felt a little embarrassed about being 23 and never having worn a tampon. I’ve got it now though.
I am 25 and I still have never gotten a tampon in correctly. I want to start trying again but I am nervous. It's okay. It doesn't matter how old you are-- it can be scary putting something inside your body for the first time.
I just tried a tampon for the first time and I am 26 :D
I'm 23 too and I'm going to try it for the first time pretty nervous lol
Same! Hahaha pads are just so much more familiar
i never thought something so small can scare me so much

omg when she put the door knocking sound i actually thought someone was walking in on me lololol
Sara Goodale ME TO🤣🤣🤣
SAMEEE, I was just yelling “who is it?!” Cuz I have earbuds right now
Omg I'm freakin 30 and doing dishes in my house with headphones on and when I heard that knock I dropped my sponge and went right back to the time I was trying to sort out tampons and heard someone outside the door. That anxiety does cool down after a while, ladies. Don't forget there is nothing wrong or unusual about what you're doing no matter what your preference is. Love how considerate this video is.

@@user-ec3rq8or1u I JUST PUT MINES IN AND IT FR FEELs.. weird but idk
Why does it feel like my hole is way to small?
It may be. Some women can't put a tampon in because their vaginal opening is very small. I have seen several women for that very reason. So, if you have concerns, I recommend that you see a gynecologist.
Well 1. Both objects she used for the demos the holes in those were WAY bigger then a normal vagina. So don’t worry vaginas are not meant to be that big. And 2. I felt mine was way to small too at first. But if you just keep trying and trying it will eventually work. And I won’t lie and say it wasn’t uncomfortable. But it will get better.
I was like that too but you have to explore that part of your body, its super awkward but if you can fit one finger, you'll be able to fit a tampon. And as you mature, it opens on its own.
me too a single finger barely fits but i can’t put a tampon in while i’m sitting on the toilet or something, i need to stand up with my legs straight hahaha
My mother just taught me how to put it in I felt that too and I kept saying it’s too small or saying it won’t go further and she said to keep punching and so I did all of a sudden it went in so easily and I was honestly shocked lol
I am 12 and a gymnast and I needed to use a tampon for gymnastics.and this helped a lot.thank you

Natalie Plays I have a swim party tmrw and I just got my period but do tampons hurt to put in?! And do they hurt after u have put it in?! I’m so nervous 😂😭
Rheanne Reyna it really depends on how you put it in. The basics are; 45 degree angle. In the tissue (bout to get graphic) there’s a small hole, that’s where you insert it downwards. It will feel very odd, but that’s mainly because you mainly are a first timer, and it’s very important to keep track of time. (TSS) you have to touch the skin around the vagina, or else it may 1, pop out, or 2, it will be much more uncomfortable. After a while you shouldn’t feel it, and also make sure the string is tuck3 in, otherwise somebody might pull on it accidentally, and now for getting it out. This part in my opinion is much more difficult. Getting it out. So this part for me, really hurt because your insides want to keep it there, and your telling otherwise. And you have to be relaxed. If this is your first time, I recommend pulling slowly. Stop if you tense up, cause then that will be a whole lot harder. Remember, some cannot fit tampons, and if that’s you then good luck.

SAME GIRL!! i thinn my hole is too small 😭😭
Their is a thing at the top that kinda looks like gum, get a mirror and spread it open and once you do that you should see the hole, hope this helps, I know it’s kinda hard!
BUT LIKE FR WHERE IS IT JSJSHSJ-
@@ronnileyvas143 ty
Omg sam
Put it in, DIDN’T feel right, panicked, took it out, that hurt, currently crying 😭
Well... I'm scared
You didn’t leave it in for long enough. It has to soak up blood before you can take it out comfortably:)
Take it out slowly and peacfully
Is it supposed to feel weird for the first time like knowing you have it in? Because it feels weird and idk if I did it right or not
It might feel weird if you’ve never had anything up your vag idk just my guess
It was on my 7th tampon I did it successfully, and this video helped greatly! (I watched it after my 5th failed attempt).
Tips:
1. She’s right, if you need to, get a mirror, use your phone flashlight lying on the ground if you gotta (poor lighting in my bathroom), and use one hand to part your vaginal lips.
2. Don’t insert at all if it’s dry down there. Or else serious pain and discomfort will follow. Either use a lubricant or don’t be afraid to get some blood on your hands, as the blood serves as a lubricant cos it’s slippery. (It’s ok if you feel grossed out I said that 😅)
3. She’s correct about the 45 degree angle. Don’t think too hard on it. And yes, position it exactly as she said holding it almost like a pencil, then pushing it in after that point when you insert.
4. Patience. Patience. Patience. I’m a pad girl, but dagnabit I’m not gonna sit when it’s hot when I can go swimming and live a less gross period life, which pads don’t help with
Ladies, YOU got this!
What if youre trying to put one on in a public school bathroom😳 (not my current situation, it hasnt even started yet, but I had a false alarm today and I was terrified)

20th tampon, gave up.
@@mandycarver9526 you’ll get there. No shame coming back to try again wherever you’re ready.
Is the 45 degree angle downwards as that is out of the vagina?
girls don’t be embarrassed!! that’s why we are all here for eachother and to help answer questions and share personal experiences with it!! it’s okay if you’ve never tried a tampon. never feel ashamed. i tried to put one in and it just couldn’t stay in even at the smallest one. try sticking with pads until you feel ready. don’t feel rushed!!
I was the hundredth like 😃😃
Is it supposed to feel like it’s hitting a wall? Mine won’t go in all the way 😔
I’m going swimming soon-
And I’m going to cry.
My dad rushed me to get out the bathroom
There’s really no tip for asking for more tampons, you just gotta ask. Don’t be scared; She’s a woman, she gets it. Also, if you feel like you’re hitting a wall right away you’re probably not putting it in the right angle. If you’re sitting on a toilet, try going downwards like the lady said (that worked for me.) Or maybe it’s just a mental block: you’re scared of putting it in so as soon as you meet resistance you stop. This seems kinda gross, but try practicing with your fingers first. It’s pretty scary to put a foreign object in your body, and this will help you get used to it. Start with your pinky since it’s the smallest. And go slow! You don’t have to put it in all at once, just put in a little, take a break when you feel overwhelmed and just try to put in a little more next time. It took me several tries and it’s gonna feel weird at first, but it doesn’t hurt as long as you go slow. I hope this helps :)

Wow. Thank you so much for this informative video. I'm 26 years old, and I haven't attempted to use tampons since I was maybe 13 or 14 years old, when I didn't know the proper technique, struggled on the toilet for ten minutes, then gave up and resigned myself to pads for years after that experience. Today, I got the tampon in successfully after two tries, with barely any leakage (I wore a pad for backup).
I don't have the kind of close relationship with my mom that I wish I had, so I'm unable to go to her for reproductive health questions. Thank you for helping us navigate through this!!! 💛
i am a 13 year old dancer and i want to use one for my dance competitions but i was always scared that i would put it in he wrong hole! this helped so much thank you !!

I’m a dancer too and I’ve got class all the time and I know how to put one in, I’ve put one in before, but I’m so scared to go out in public with one ahhhh
sameeeee
I’m 12 and a competitive dancer and just my luck I got my period so I had to put in a tampon 😬
I would worry more about how far you place it other than what hole it goes in
This reminds me of a test everyone in the comments freaking out because people are finishing the test way faster than them so they are freaking out and trying to rush to do it faster before they be the last to do it
this is what you’d call an underrated comment
for everyone watching this who CANNOT get it in, it took me literally 15+ times and I have FINALLY done it. The angle is so important. Keep moving it around until you get the perfect angle. I have just turned 14 and unfortunately got it straight after by birthday for the first time, if I can do it so can you!! Don't give up xox
hi there to anyone watching this, if you need some more help, i have some tips for you!! this seems like a lot but it really isn’t and will help you so much!! but one tip is to move it around if you can’t get it in all the way because you have to get it in at an angle. but you probably will need to get a couple tries before actually doing it correctly. also make sure you have pushed it in all the way. (to make sure you are doing it right, hold the grip and push it in until your fingers touch your skin.) also when about to push it in, make sure you don’t rest your fingers or hands while doing so because the tampon can end up staying in the same spot with the applicator going down instead of it going up. you’ve got this!!!
Haha funny because I'm the same age and I got mine straight after my birthday too, my friends all said I got mine late!
*cries in over 70 times*
At least u got it just after ur birthday I got it on New Year’s Day this year and this was not a good start of the year😢
OMG I DID IT! MY FIRST TIME AND IT WASNT AS HARD AS I THOUGHT IT WOULD!! ITS EASY GUYS JUST RELAX AND MAKE SURE IT GOES IT SMOOTHLY :))

I tried to put my tampon in and i couldn't push it in after it hurt too badly
nobody important 1. You are somebody very important to me!!! 2. Make sure that you use the smallest tampon you can find. 3. You can put a lubricant on the tampon 4. You can see if you can figure out the direction of your vagina with your finger first Good luck
thank you Dr.Kathy thanks to you i got to go to swim try outs lol
Dr. Kathy At Your Cervix what would you use as a lubricant?
nobody important What would you use as lubricant?
catjm if your vagina isn’t already wet, you can use lube. Don’t use too much, just a little on the tip of the tampon should do. ((I’m no expert, that’s just what’s worked with me))

Besties, it worked after 5 TRIES! It’s definitely scary, but You got this!
Tips:
- it may feel very uncomfortable at first but if you slightly wiggle it as your putting it in, it can help you find the “tunnel”!
- stay calm! The calmer you are, the easier it will be!
- if it gets stuck because it’s dry & you didn’t get it in all the way: use either a lubricant or gently peel your skin off of it SLOWLY so nothing rips!
It was so scary but it’s SO worth it! Good luck!!
I just want to add that nothing will rip when you are taking out a tampon! It can feel uncomfortable and if your period is light, it can be. a bit painful if your tampon is dry but YOU WILL NOT RIP ANYTHING! Just go very slowly and take breaks if it hurts. It will be fine and you can try again another time.
The wiggling thing is so on point though like it hurt at first the very first time I tried, but after the slight discomfort it was fine after
I already had the mental breakdown staying calm won’t work while tears are running down my cheeks 😭💀
I’m literally having a mental breakdown because I can’t ✨l o c a t e✨ anything
idk if you have had success yet, but lying down with a mirror really helps to locate it
It's so fu*king hard i can't find it too i have tried more than 6 times but all fail and now i have given up
@@melaphiney is it supposed to hurt when I put it in?
Ann I it might hurt the first time you put it in yeah, but once it’s fully in it shouldn’t hurt/feel uncomfortable if it’s in correctly
@Father Louis Willam Suga Adams the third I wasted like 5 tampons it goes halfway in and then I have to put more pressure which I am not able to do.. it kinda hurts when I try to put it more in..but I wish someone could just put it all the way in for me 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
OMG GUYS I DID IT first time I ever inserted something down there but it felt so natural it was the easiest thing I’m so happy xD
same but sometimes when i put them in they feel really uncomfortable because i don’t but it in right
Artless_ Sera lucky I’m over here wasting tampons Because it won’t go in 🤢😂😭
Yay
Same and I was scared and it slipped right in and my friends were saying that I’m all open😐💀
HOW i can’t put it in bc it hurts so bad
AHHHHH TWO DAYS AND FOUR TRIES LATER I FINALLY GOT IT
ik this is a long time later but good for you!! i’m waiting for the day i can say this.
Hi Dr. Wolf! You delivered my sweet baby in 2008 and now with this video you are teaching her a valuable lesson! Love it!
I- I did it. Holy it feels so much better now😺👍🏼
Really? It feels weird for me 😳
I can’t do it and I’m panicking
I don’t understand the angle because nothing feels right
@@madisoncarver9641 okay so I’m a pro at it now 4 months later and I found it easier to sit on the toilet with your legs spread but easier angle it a bit towards your back, it’s a bit uncomfortable the first few times but it gets better. And when taking out don’t yank it slowly pull it out
@@susannahekstrom6256 thank you much :)
THANK U SO MUCH I PUT THE TAMPON ON FIRST TRY WITHOUT IT HURTING!!! I’m so happy right now
Lana Allier how old are you? and what type on tampon did you use?
I did everything wrong. That 10 minute breakdown in the bathroom was for nothing. Everything still hurts though so-
Edit: Just got out the shower and put it in. I'm so glad I did it. Now I just gotta learn how to walk again.
please help

HOW DID YOU DO ITKAHSK
Omg girl I put it in but Im almost over so it was pretty dry and it hurt so bad tryna get it out I was crying so I dipped my cooter in the toilet water
@@emmadefore2075 OMGG THIS MADE ME LAUGH SO HARD IM SO SORRY BUT IT MAKES ME FEEL BETTER
@@chickenwing4063 im glad it makes you feel better XD
@@emmadefore2075 dang I'm sitting here reading comments trying to procrastinate but tbh I might be stuck to blood diapers for eternity
Got my first period in December, it's been almost a year and I used my first tampon today thanks to you. I had no idea I needed to click it first, you're so helpful THANK YOU!!
All my friends are guys and don’t realise that I can’t go swimming certain times of the month. So I’m learning how to use a tampon to make it easier.
SAME
I need help, it won’t go in the hole and it hurts every time I try 😫
This is my first time I will say it’s easier when you’re going heavy (I’m a virgin) it doesn’t hurt as much.
Never mind lmaoooo
Me too
YO EVERYONE IS SAYING THEY ARE HAVING A MENTAL BREAKDOWN CAUSE THEY CANT GET IT IN OMG I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST ME IM HAVING A MENTAL BREAKFOWN RN CAUSE I CANT GET IT IN CAUSE IT HURTS
hi there, if you need some more help, i have some tips for you!! this seems like a lot but it really isn’t and will help you so much!! but one tip is to move it around if you can’t get it in all the way because you have to get it in at an angle. but you probably will need to get a couple tries before actually doing it correctly. also make sure you have pushed it in all the way. (to make sure you are doing it right, hold the grip and push it in until your fingers touch your skin.) also when about to push it in, make sure you don’t rest your fingers or hands while doing so because the tampon can end up staying in the same spot with the applicator going down instead of it going up. you’ve got this!!!
SAMEE
literally me rn im so frustrated
GIRL IVE BEEN HERE FOR 30 MINUTES NOW N TRYING TO GET IT IN AND IVE BEEN HAVING A MENTAL BREAK DOWN BUT I TRIED DOING IT IN BED AND OMG I GOT IT IN AND I FEEL SO MUCH BETTER!!! Also, when I put it in, I didn’t hurt, but it was hurting before because I was doing it wrong. So try doing it on your bed or laying down???
Back a year or so ago, my swim team was coming up, and I had recently gotten my period and didn't want any leakage. I was so lucky to have a mom who taught me everything, even inserted one herself for me so I could see how it felt, and i eventually got it and its amazing. Just be careful when you near the end of your period because if you pull it out with not enough blood, it can hurt a little.
OMG MY TRYOUTS ARE IN TWO DAYS AMD INJUSDT GO T MY PERIOD
I wish my mom was as supportive as yours, I'm literally crying in my room just trying to figure this out by myself, while she's very against tampons
@damarissarahihidalgo8562 oh no!! That's too bad that she doesn't support them. :( Just go at your own pace and don't be scared to feel around down there with your fingers in the shower. It's easier to insert one when you're actually on your period too. Hope this helps :)
@@damarissarahihidalgo8562 Some moms don't like tampons because they're afraid of TSS, she's simply afraid for you, is all. Maybe talk to her about it if you're comfortable :)
@allanm2064 oh my goodness!! I don't even know how you manged to get it in your butthole (it's smaller and less stretchy) just remember, if it hurts, it's wrong 😊
Omg no matter how much I try I can’t and I threw up and started crying on the floor cause it felt like hell.
It wasn’t bad for me
Same I threw up and started crying also
Claire Carter Mosley it didn’t hurt me but I did feel like throwing up and I almost passed out before I pulled it out
Maybe u put it in wrong
emilia Lo wait is it normal to feel like that? Cuz I put it in an inch I couldn’t push it in more cuz it hurt but after I feel really thirsty n tired and like I wanted to throw up and pass out
I have to go swimming tomorrow (im 12 btw) and im on my period and i have to use a tampon for the first ever time and i was really nervous but this video helped a lot i feel ready for tomorrow
I’m 13 and have the same problem..
@Arabella Katz you don't have to change it after every single class! every 3-4 hours. also if you use tampons you most likely won't get an infection, just remember to change it every 3ish hours :))
Lauren Zych it isn't actually that scary what i was told by my brothers girlfriend is it may hurt a little cos nothing ever been up there but just kinda shove it up there if it hurts to much then your not ready to use one
After trying for a few months, this month, it finally worked! Thanks god! What a blessing 😊

@@saturniiiidae OMG SAME😭
i’ve had my period for 3 years and never used a tampon. i finally did it today. it didn’t hurt super bad but i could feel it going in obviously but afterwards like right after i got up and i didn’t like it i took it out and put on a pad immediately. i had a bad experience when i took it out i felt light headed and nauseous, i am currently laying on the floor in-front of my fan. i’m sticking to pads!
Samee girl
I wish I could I go to swim 5 days a week and hear I am crying on the toilet 10 minutes before
BESTIES I DID IT!!!! it took me like 4 try’s but i did it!!!!!
I'm honestly just a lil 11 year old who has no absolute clue on tampons or how to insert them so I just wanna thank you for this. I would've stuck to pads but I have a dance competition and I needed to use one and I freaked out but this helped me a lot so thank you so much for this :)
Thank you Norah for the feedback! I am glad it helped and you stuck with it and made it happen!
Congratulations! I’m about to try this... wish me luck 😬
I'm 21 and never in my life used a tampon. Only used pads.., and I'm scared ppl
MEE! I am 19!
Don’t be it’s safe as long u don’t leave it in for long times like days
Im 19 , sitting in tub tryna get it in 💀
Omg thank you sooo muchhh i put it in the wrong angle and it hurt so much
Same
Am I the only one crying 😭😭😭
No I'm bottomless on my toilet shaking and crying 😭
I’m so scared I don’t want to do this
@@akshijay1775 2 months later literally scarred for life. Still haven’t done it. 😭
Girl I’m balling
Patrina Kelly *bawling* but lmao I felt that same
A few years ago when I was around 15 and was wanting to use tampons I couldn’t. It felt like I was hitting a brick wall. Turns out it’s because I have/had vaginismus . I went to physical therapy for it and it only took I would say 5 months to “cure” it. I think that is something that should be covered so more girls know about what it is, because I was clueless and confused for a long time. (Vaginismus is the involuntary spasms of the vaginal wall and it makes any kind of penetration almost impossible and painful)
How did you fix it?
I hope you're doing all well now
i don’t even know if i entered it into the right hole, it’s like i think i have 10 holes or something 😭
samee
😂😂😂😂😂
IKR
We have three of them but insert the tampon in the middle one underneath the clitoris, The middle one is the vagina (The place you’re supposed to insert it in).
Sameeeee
Thank you sooooo much I’m 12 and I have had me period for a long time and I have always been to scared now I did it! Thanks for your help. Your a real life saver!! 🙃🙃🥳
Hey, I know it's been four months but I wanted to help you out, it's you're**
I'm so sorry, I'm annoying lol.
I'm a transgender man, and haven't started T so I still get pretty heavy periods. I am so happy that this video didn't cause me any dysphoria and just helped me along 🥰🥰
I can't even fathom how you ladies go a good portion of your lives doing this! Props to all of you ☺️
what…… if your a man??? then how tf do you get a period??
@@jayda349 I'm trans. I was born into a female body
@@Harudodo
Then you are a woman ,not a man.
@@stripersniper1531 No he’s a man, mind your business
@@NN-pp3er she's definitely NOT a man if she gets periods!! Men don't get periods!! She needs psychological help.
Just listening about how to put it in, hurts and gives me anxiety
Same tho 😭
