sabrinaelder	The tampon have more protect than pads. If you're on period. If you hadn't use the tampon first time. You can start put tampon in your body, when you get your a period.

Insight™	You can try with tampons, and if you find them uncomfortable switch back to sanitary towels. Remember if you do decide to start using tampons its recommended to use sanitary towels at least once day out of your period to reduce Toxic Shock Syndrome. But have a talk with your mum and you can decide together. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Ashley A	Well its entirely up to you... It is pretty much a question of comfort for you. maybe try using a tampon if you are comfortable with it then stick with it but if you are not switch back.. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

KrazyAngelKat81	Tampons take a bit of getting used to but they are better for wearing if you are doing something physically active as they are more comfortable. However at night it's best to stick to towels as tampons are not advised to be worn for long stretches of time Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Mathie	Try them and see which is more comfortable. I use neither. I use Instead Softcups which are disposable menstrual cups but have recently decided to switch to the Keeper which is reusable. Sometimes on my heavy days or at night I wear a pad with the cup in order to prevent some leaks if it's really bad but usually I don't need anything but the menstrual cup. They have definitely made my life easier and I am never going back to wearing tampons or just pads again. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

socialdeelite1	right when i first started having my period i always used pads bc i was afraid of that toxic shock syndrome. but now im 26 and all i use are tampns. I have no problems with them and they are alot easier to mess with. Plus i think pads hold more odor. If you go with tampons get the Gentle glide or the satin feel, those are the best. but its your choice, whatever makes you the most comfortable. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

OKAY	well I use both and I'm 27. It basically what is comfortable for you. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Krissy	I'm 19 and I still use both. You don't have to use tampons and if you choose to there is no rush. Just take your time and get used to having a period. Good luck! Krissy Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Jenine	Yes! They are the best thing in the world! You will be so much more comfortable !!!!!! You'll never go back! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Sporky	you don't have to. You should do it if and when you are comfortable. I got my period when I was 11 and I didn't try tampons tip I was 16. you can try them if u want but there is no pressure. a lot of women like tampons cause they make things less messy but you don't ever have to use them if you don't want. Its just a personal choice. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

BeNnI BoY	talk to someone older that u feel comfotable around Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

wendy b	u could always try them, if u don't like it, switch back, every female is different Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Lil Brownie	Humm, I'm 15 and still using sanitary pads. Haven't touch or seen a tampon yet cause they are so damn blardy expensive. No family member of mine have used a tampon since it is quite dangerous if you are unhygenic. Leaving it too long and cause the Toxic Shock Symdrome thing, leaving it too short is just pure wasting. The blood decomposes in your body and may cause cervix cancer or something like that. That's why I haven't had a family member who is hospitalised of cancer =) I'm trying to learn how to use a tampon... one day... But in my opinion, use sanitary pads when you are at home, tampons if you are going out. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

allybebe2	yes i think you should switch to tampons, they're less messy and usually more comfortable. you should also talk to your mum and see what she says! i'm 12 (JUST) and i have had three periods and i used tampons even on the first one even though i was a little scared at first. but they are actually very easy and quite safe. i would recomend that you use a tampon with a plastic aplicator (they're easier than cardboard ones)such as tampax compak (i use them) also i would suggest that you wear a pantyliner a well when you start using them (you can leak a little) hope i helped! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

mrrtt4851	What makes you comfy my dear. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Terri	Tampons are GREAT especially with regards to water sports and sports activities! I only use them. Tampax Pearl Lites. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

d	keep using the pads. tampons sometimes cause cramping and because you're so young the pads are just fine. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

lady a	SOMETIME TRYING THEM FOR THE FIRST TIME MAY B UNCOMFORTABLE ,BUT IF U DO SWITCH TO TAMPONS GO WITH THE PLASTICS IT WILL NOT HURT AS MUCH AS CARDBOARD. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

ohbother	Talk to your mother about this. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Tira A	It's a matter of choice. Try the tampons...ya might like them better....ya might not. The reason most of us prefer tampons is cuz we don't like napkins...they are stinky and nasty...shudders BUT, the use of proper tampon insertion takes some practice...be patient, and take your time....make sure you start with the smallest size....Some feel that using tampons shouldn't be used by girls who want to remain virgins...why? not sure...seems they think it might damage the hymen....which they won't. Try them, then you will be able to decide which you are more comfortable with. Good Luck! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No
