How to put a tampon in?

okay, so I need to know ffast because im going swimming in a couple hours. but like I have my period and I've tried to use a tampon before, but I cant get it in. like where do you put it? if anyone can explain exactly how to do this, can you please tell me. it would be helpfull. thanks.

well not to sound pervish but you really do stick it in you V-hole... and then it staysin it works all the time..

ok
1. you put it in your vagina
2.push the pusher thing that its in until its totally out and inside u.
3.and there are directions on the box so you can get help from there too.

Hi ok so fast find the opening to your vagina that ia where you put the tampon.take a deep breath and stick it up so that the string hangs out this is very important so that you can remove it after the dry tampon will be uncomfortable but it will pass.once your done swimming remove it and use a pad.don't leave in a tampon for to long you can get toxic sock.have a good swim

is it supposed to hurt when your sticking it up there though? because I dont know if im forcing it too much. I cant seem to get it all the way up. like half of it is stiill sticking out.

well not the best feeling try putting your foot on the edge of the bathtub

Put one foot on a chair or the toliet
Take your hand and spread your vagina lips apart
If your using a tampon with an applicator make sure the string is hanging outside the barrel
Hold the applicator and place your index finger at the end of the applicator (the part where the string is hanging out)
Insert into your vagina and push towards your rectum (like push towards your back not really upwards)...Lubricating the tampon with a water based lubricant can help to make insertion easier
Stop pushing when your finger meet your vagina or when you cant feel the tampon in you

That should do it

Insert the tampon towards your tailbone. Your vagina doesn't go straight up into your body.

Only the string should stick out and good news, being in water stops the bleeding! until you get out that is...

thanks for the advicee. wow, I never knew being in water stops the bleeding?

Being in the water doesn't stop the bleeding. You just can't see the blood dissolving in the water while you're swimming.
