congrats on becoming a woman!!!!
my advice is that for the first few cycles, use pads instead of tamps because they are more comfy. once you do start using them though, they are pretty easy to use just follow the instructions on the inside of the package, or go to http://youngwomenshealth.org/tampon.html which can explain it as well
also, for pms, midol and a painkiller work great for cramps and headaches adn everything.
in the couple days leading up to it ALWAYS remember to use a pantyliner, and never forget a pad or tamp in one of your bags to avoid major embarrassment!
lol its pretty easy just be responsible about everything and again congratulations!!!
hope it helps:)
congrats! in my opinion tampos are extremely painful. You wont like it. pads great. sorry thats all i got i just resently had my first. btw you should be having another one in the near future.
I know this may be difficult, but your mother or an older sister would be the best person to go to. You might feel uncomfortable, but they are expecting this to happen to you so they will be happy to help. When it comes to tampons, it is possible to become really sick if they are not used properly, so by talking to them you can avoid this. Hope this helps.
First make sure you count the days between your period, and during your period. So you know when your gonna get it and how long it will last. Always keep a pad or tampon in your bookbag or purse. I started out using pads for the first few months that way you can monitor your period, if its light or heavy. Then when you feel comfortable try a tampon, I use Kotex tampons and stayfree pads. They both work great! Good luck!
