A Tampon inside of Me

Tampons are products used to absorb your menstrual flow. They are made of soft cotton pressed together to form a cylinder like shape, so that they can be easily inserted. A tampon absorbs your menstrual flow, or blood, before it has a chance to leave the body. Tampons come in all different sizes and absorbencies and can be purchased at your local pharmacy or grocery store. If the tampon is inserted correctly, you should not feel it. If you feel uncomfortable in any way, you may have inserted the tampon incorrectly or the tampon may not be placed far enough in. If this happens, just remove the tampon and start again with a new tampon. It may take a little practice before getting it just right. Some myths about tampons are that they are unhealthy, they can get lost inside you, you will no longer be a virgin and that they fall out during physical activity. Just remember that these are myths and are not true at all. For more information you can visit this website http://www.youngwomenshealth.org/tampon.html.
