Answer 1

hey, no it wont get stuck, it just expands to ur body shape and than when u need 2 change it it just slides out easily.

Answer 2

they wont get stuck

Answer 3

just relax. get a box of tampax with applicators, and read the leaflet inside. if at first you don't suceed, keep going, they won;t get lost, and you use the string to pull them out. much cleaner than pads. good luck

Answer 4

Think about it rationally. If they could get stuck or cause any other horrible problems, would people buy them? Of course not!

The tampon itself will not sit very high inside you and has nowhere to go as the cervix is far too small for it to pass through. It will only expand to the width of your v****a and will sit in place comfortably and without movement. If you did not leave the tampon in for very long previously it may have given the impression that it was hard to remove as it will have been dry and therefore caused some friction. When your tampon is ready to be removed it will come away very easily as the blood from your period will lubricate it.

I am sure you will find that once you have found your confidence with tampons that they are the best solution to enjoying your holiday and will probably continue to use them thereafter.

Answer 5

I am 16 and had the same problem at your age!!  I use tampons all the time now so will gladly help. If you use the correct absorbency you will have no spillages or leaks (if you want to be on the safe side, use the highest absorbency).  It will expand but it will definitly come out when you pull it out.  Yes, it may be quite difficult to take out if you use a high absorbency for a short time and it has not soaked up much blood but it WILL come out - i promise!

Also, to make you more comfortable, use one before you go swimming to re-assure yourself.  The only thing to be aware of is to not leave it in longer than 8 hours but other than that GO FOR IT and enjoy swimming!

  

Answer 6

I use them and started at thirteen also : D.

No worries. It's not all that scary at all!

I understand where you're coming from though.

Taking them out can hurt, but that's only because

you didn't leave the tampon in long enough for enough

blood to get onto it. If you do not fill your tampon and take it

out, it will be taking out the natural "Juices" of your v****a.

That's not good because they help keep you clean.

Try it once more but leave it in for four hours or so.

The most is 8! Change whenever you feel you need to.

goodluck hun.

Answer 7

Hey! I'm 12 (and a half) and today was actually my first time trying on tampons! it was actually really easy. but if you're just out of the shower it slides in better since you're already wet (sounds perverted i know. ) taking it out is really easy if you relax and breathe. since its wet (again) it just sorta slides out. but you kinda have to pull harder thant you thought, cause i did. just pull it out the same way you put it in and everything will be all right.

Answer 8

honey, they wont get stuck..thats why there is a string..but if your going swimming id advise you to use a "super" tampon instead just so there's no suprises in the pool! If your afraid to use the bigger ones then just use regular size ones.

again..it wont get stuck honey.
