hmm...it shouldn't be that difficult. if you find the instructions in the tampon box it will tell you the best position to get in for it to go in smoothly. and make sure you tilt it toward your spine when you insert it, you don't want to send it up the wrong hole. it's supposed to be easier, I think, if you are leaning forward. find the instructions in the box though. otherwise...well, don't plan on having sex until you figure that much out.

Try using pearl tampons or anything easyglide with a PLASTIC APPLICATOR. The cardboard ones hurt so much....

I think that you need to read the box. It should have instructions but your probably not going to get any answers from this. Have you tried asking an older sister or your mom? They probably would know.

Just try to be relaxed when you do it. Maybe you should keep wearing pads for a bit if you're really uncomfortable with it :)

Ok, I'm 13 and I am a heavy flower. I HATE tampons, but once they're in, its all good. You can't feel it. I still haven't put one in myself, my mom has done it for me. I layed on the bed while she put it in. Its best to put one in while you are flowing, since it will slide in easier. I can never find the hole either. You're not alone! But the key is to RELAX.

When a tampon is put in correctly, you shouldn't even feel it!
in every tampon box there is a small piece of paper that tells you how to put one in!
if its not in ALL THE WAY then thats what could be causing you pain, and if it is all the way in, but its crooked, take it out so that it doesn't hurt!
when you put it in, aim for your lower back!
If you are a virgin or you dont masturbate thats why you probably can't find your "hole". lol
try using a mirror when you are putting in the tampon!
*hope this helps!

you should buy the tampax pearl light days tampon
there should be a paper that explains it all
just relax and breath deep then shove that sucker in
it might sound weird, you'll feel weird doing it too, but look in the mirror and find the right hole
tampons are much easier than pads! good luck!

Oh I remember my first time using one, it was the scariest thing ever. I literally went through a box I believe in one month just practicing haha...
It seems uber complicated, but really it's simple.
Ok first of all, start with the plastic small ones, like the slim fit pearls. Those are the best and easiest to get up.
There's a "finger grip" on it, it has a little circle-like design on it. It's where the applicator meets the push-up wand. Grab that with your thumb and middle finger.
Ok now here's the scary part....and try doing this standing up, it's easier....start to stick it in, and the trick I used was I pushed it up like I was directing it towards my belly button. There is just one way up, no other weird holes for it to get lost, so just go for it. Keep pushing until your fingers are touching your "area".
Get it as far up as you can before you push the "insert-wand" with your index (pointer) finger. It feels soooo weird if it's not in all the way. The point of a tampon is not to feel it.
Now push the insert wand hard, and pull out the applicator slowly. You'll feel the tampon kinda stop, thats the end of your vaginal cannal...so no worries, the tampon isn't going anywhere up inside your body. :)
There!
Good luck honey!

the instructions on the box are important but whats more important is that you feel comfortable. I find it really impossible to believe that you dont know where your own vagina opening is. You need to know your body and get comfortable with your self.
1. relax and get into a comfortable position either squatting or putting one leg up on the toilet seat or bathtub.
2. take a few breaths relax your muscles and place the tampon at your vagina opening. (only you can help yourself with finding it)
3. slide the tube in at an angle, try aiming it towards your lower back dont put it in straight thats not the way your vagina is made.
4. Hold the base of the larger tube with your thumb and middle finger then use your pointing finger to puch the smaller tube up.
Hope this helps.
p.s. you got to make sure the applicator(larger tube) is all the way in, push it in until your fingers are touching your vagina.

relax when you do it. use the plastic applicators. and if you can't find "the hole" then get more familiar with yourself before you try again.

sometimes when you put a tampon in you break through a little skin.
it should only hurt for a second.
but after that it doesn't hurt any other time you put it in.
so just kinda push hard...
haha.

How are you standing/sitting when you are putting it in? Hovering over the toilet works best for me. Buy the slender tampons, they might fight better. And just relax. The first few times I must not have put it in right because it was uncomfortable when I sat down. So I just took it out and tried it again.

First of all are you a virgin? If you are chances are that you will have some trouble. Good tampons are also a must. Tampax is the best but I prefer Tampax Pearl. Much easier to use!

you have to be relaxed because if your tense, your vaginal muscles will tense up and it will be harder to insert the tampon.. just take your time.. you;ll eventually get it :)

Don't fret. I had trouble forever and actually gave up on them and didn't try again until my twenties. Just relax and feel around.

maybe you need the special slim tampons if your hole is a bit small
so wait you can't put it in?
as embarassing as is, if you can't do it yourself, ask someone experienced like your mom to help.

Get a mirror, try sticking your finger in. Sorry if that sounds gross but you need to know where the tampon goes. Time to get familiar with your genitals. Keep trying, tampons are so much better than pads.

Hi, I totally know how you feel....
Back when it was my first time to use tampons, it took a lot of trying before it finally worked. Don't feel frustrated, because that's the last thing you should feel! Try to relax as much as you can so that your muscles Loosen.
Try to do it standing, book one foot on the the toilet seat and one foot on the ground. Use a mirror if you can't find the hole.
If you still keep trying and it just doesn't work, try coming back and trying later in the day. It will work soon! And read over the instructions. Also, when you wear it you SHOULD NOT feel it. If you do, that means it is not pushed in far enough. It might feel uncomfy to push it in, but it will feel even worse if it's not inserted correctly.
If worse you can't figure it out, you can ask someone close to you or even see a gynocologist!

i had the sameeee exact problem like 2 months ago. i found out what i was doing wrong. it hurts because your hitting your bone. you may think your going in the right angle and everything. but your not. move it up and down and side to side. its not just going to pop right in. you have to push slightly hard to get it in. thats also what i was doing wrong. it took my like 7 trys. but when i got it, i was very excited.
hope it helps. gooood luck (:

you should start off with the light tampons with the 'Gentle glide' applicator, they are easier to use than the cardboard ones. just relax your self, you could also try different positions like squattingor with one leg up. you could also use petroleum jelly if it still gives you trouble. talk to your mom or your older sister for help.

Grab a mirror and stand up with one leg on the toilet and take a look at what you are doing.
Make sure you are using the smallest tampons and are pushing them all the way in before you push the applicator:)
