They can be a bit difficult to begin with but it does get easier.1. Use small or medium ones to begin with as they are easier to use.2.Use ones with applicators as they are much easier to use.3.Make sure you wash your hands before and afterwards.4.Use a mirror to begin with to show you where everything goes.5.Most tampon boxes come with instructions inside so have a look at the diagrams.6.Alot of people try inserting them directly upwards to begin with, they shoukd be inserted at a slight angle.7.Relax as being worried will tense you up.8.Remove them every 4 hours or so, Id also advise using a panty liver at night time instead.Dont worry, it may take quite a few attempts but you'll get there in the end.xxx

 Ive been where you are and it sucks!!!
but my mom told me to put a little vasaline or lubricant
on the tip before putting the tampon in , it makes it so it slides in without the pinching
it really works!!!

 oh and. don't forget.
don't leave them in for longer than 8 hours, otherwise you'll get Toxic Shock Syndrome, which can cause death.
change them every 4-6 hours, at least.

Tampax come with easy-in applicators, which helps you put it in easier.
First off, remember to be relaxed, try taking deep breaths before putting it in.
Put one of your legs up on your toilet seat or on the side of your bath.
Put two fingers so that the lips of your vagina are pulled back.
Using your other hand put the tampon in your vagina a little bit, then using your middle finger on the hand that is pulling the lips back, push the tampon in until the little ribs at the end of the tampon applicator are inside you.
Then, pull the applicator out of your vagina, so that just the string of the tampon is hanging out. If a tiny bit of it is hanging out, just push it in with your finger. :]
If it starts to hurt whilst putting it in, take it out, take a few deep breaths and try again.
Hope this helps. :] x
