Q: Tampon Usage Question....
asked by: RebelCats on December 4th, 2007

Years ago before I had kids I could wear with no issues. But after having kids the tampons just don't ever seem to fit right. After awhile (like an hour) they start to work themselves out. I feel as if I am putting them in the right way because I don't feel them or anything when I put them in. I use the regular size tampons (not super or slender or anything). What causes them to work back out so soon after putting them in? Also in case this makes a difference I have a back tilted cervix.

Tampon Use Problem
I too have the problem of the tampon not working for me after my two children. The tampon will be inserted properly and I have leakage. Also the tampon works it's way out. Summertime has become a bummer during my period because I have to refrain from swimming for at least three days until my flow is light. I asked years ago about it and was told to practice my kegal (sp) excersises! That doesn't help.

This may be because you got slightly stretched out from your pregnancies. Try using a larger sized tampon; it should stay in better. Also, if you are worried about leaking, wear a pad and a tampon at the same time.

Tampon Problems
The larger tampon does not seem to help. I am not going to wear a pad with a tampon because the reason I want the tampon is to swim and a pad in a swimsuit does not work. I just end up going with the pad and having to refrain from the pool for a few days.

Tampons hurt?
It has been 4 months since my second child was born and for some reason tampons are so uncomfortable and come out after an hour or so??? I cannot imagine wearing a pad for every period I now have???? Are there any answers out there?
