Do tampons hurt?
No. If you insert a tampon the right way, you shouldn’t feel any discomfort. Tampons are inserted into the vagina through the same opening from which menstrual fluid leaves your body. For just about everybody, this opening is large enough to hold a Tampax tampon comfortably. Follow the instructions given in our package insert carefully – or check the insertion instructions on this Web site. You’ll see that using Tampax tampons is really easy.
