Answer #1

not a good idea,it can attract sharks and that wouldnt be very good,sometimes its the tampon brand your using thats uncomfortable try using a different brand! hope I helped =) (when inserting tampon try putting one leg up on the stall maybe that will help)

Answer #2

I doubt that little amount of blood would attract sharks.

Have you tried using different brands, not all of them are the same, also use the ones with the applicators to start off with and make sure that you putt it in deep enough. And just another thing, if you don’t get it right the first time you shouldn’t worry, it takes a while getting used to it.
