How to choose tampons? What should I pay attention to?

Ahu strongly recommends using tampons in summer. There is really no burden at all. I just happened to go to the water park with my friends on the first day of my last menstruation. Ahu used tampons + ibuprofen. It was a pleasure. Played all afternoon. When choosing the right tampon, you can consider the following aspects.

First, absorptive capacity is an important factor. You need to choose the appropriate absorption amount according to your menstrual situation. If you have heavy periods, choose a tampon with strong absorbency. Absorption capacity is usually indicated on the packaging, so you can refer to this information to make your selection. The general absorption capacity is divided into R as normal, S as large, and SP as excessive. Ahu uses R daily. Smaller tampons are easier to put into the body. When the amount is large, just change it frequently.

The second is size and length. Tampons are available in different sizes and lengths. If you are a first-time user, it is recommended to choose a smaller size so that it is easier to insert and remove. The length should also be selected according to your own needs to ensure comfort and leak-proof effect. There are two methods of tampon insertion: catheter and finger insertion. It is recommended to use a tampon with a catheter, because finger insertion requires inserting the finger deep into the vagina, which is difficult for novices to get started. Ahu often uses Kotex's short catheter, which is very convenient and suitable for novices.

Fit and comfort are also factors considered. Tampons should fit the curves of your body without causing discomfort. Some brands offer different types of fit options, such as for first-time users or those who are more active. Choosing tampons with good fit and comfort can provide a better use experience. Most tampons are from foreign brands, so the sizes are larger and may not be suitable for Asian women. Fortunately, merchants will have trial sizes. You can buy one for more than ten yuan, and you will know which one is more suitable for you by trying them more.

Brand credibility and word-of-mouth are also factors to consider. Choosing some tampons with good brand reputation and reputation can increase your confidence. Traditional tampon brands include Kotex, Danbis, Johnson & Johnson, etc. The big brands have better craftsmanship and better materials, and are suitable for novices. Once you become proficient, you can explore niche brands that are more suitable for you!

The most important thing is to choose the right tampon according to your own situation and comfort level. When using it for the first time, you can choose a product with a smaller size, read the instructions carefully, and follow the correct insertion and removal methods. Ahu successfully inserted the tampon for the first time. The trick is to relax the body. There are no nerves in the vagina. After inserting it in the correct position, there is no feeling at all.

So be sure to take it out, especially the last tampon during your period, don’t forget it!
