How to use tampons

Even though more and more female friends are using tampons during menstruation, they still don’t know much about how to use them. They always put tampons directly into their vaginas. Pushing them in forcefully will damage the vaginal area. Therefore, you still have to choose the right tampon according to your menstrual volume, otherwise it will cause side leakage.

The first step is to choose the right tampon based on your menstrual flow (light, moderate, heavy).

Step 2: Wash your hands with warm water and soap.

Step 3 Remove the tampon from its packaging.

The fourth step is to insert the inner tube of the tampon into the body, about a few inches, not too deep. The hands must be able to reach the outer tube.

Step 5: Continue to push the inner tube forward and push the tampon into the vagina.

Step 6: Remove the catheter (outer tube and inner tube) together.

In the seventh step, the string connected to the tampon must be left outside the vagina.

Step 8: Wrap the catheter with toilet paper and throw it into the trash can. Never flush it down the toilet.
