I am 15 years old. I had my first period about a year ago. My periods have been very irregular, they are not in a monthly cycle and they last a few weeks. I have wanted to use tampons but I've been very afraid to because every time I try it hurts really bad to stick it up there. I can't get the idea of it in me and I've gotten it in probably 75% before but it hurts so bad. I just end up crying and using stupid pads that I hate. I don't know how to put it in without feeling pain. I think I know how to insert it correctly but it still hurts and is very uncomfortable. I've tried using light tampons thinking it may be easier but apparently it still won't work. I'm tired of using pads. Please help!
