How do you make tampons comfortable?

To make tampons more comfortable, you can try the following tips:

- Use a smaller size tampon. If your tampon feels too large, even when it is only partially inserted, you should not use it. When a tampon is too big, it can stretch your vaginal canal, which results in pain and discomfort.

- Change your tampon regularly. Tampons should be changed every 4 to 8 hours. Leaving the same tampon in for longer than the maximum amount of time can make your vagina more prone to infection and irritation.

- Consider using a different type of tampon. There are different types of tampons available for purchase: applicator tampons, non-applicator tampons, and organic tampons. You might find that one type works better for your body and feels more comfortable.

- Use a water-based lubricant. Applying a water-based lubricant to the tip of the tampon can make it easier to insert and remove. This can help to prevent pain and discomfort during the process.

- If you have a sensitive bladder or urethra, try inserting the tampon at an angle. This will help to avoid putting pressure on these areas and reduce pain and discomfort.

- Relax your pelvic muscles before and during insertion. If your muscles are tense, the insertion of the tampon may become more difficult and cause discomfort. Take some deep breaths and try to relax your body before inserting.

- You may want to try using a menstrual cup or disc instead of tampons. These options do not absorb the fluids, but instead catch them in a cup or insert that sits in your vagina.
