5. There's a little more surface area to push against there
I seem to recall OB tampons have a string. :shrug: Beats me, I don't use 'em.

14. I remember they had strings too and they
looked like upside down umbrellas after use. They actually look like little umbrellas that got caught in a strong wind to me.

3. Umm, not a woman, but shouldn't there be a string?
I think this thread is rapidly becoming a medical advice thread. Tweezers and a trusted friend is my suggestion

12. Use as many fingers as possible and reach
in making damn sure you dig deeply and thoroughly in the process. Hey, if ya gotta do that, might as well make it as fun as possible.

13. I've heard worse.
My friend's father thought pads must be terribly painful. He thought they were worn adhesive-side up.

15. Locking
DU Women are now wondering why Original Poster knows this about tampons?

This thread has become a medical advice/sex thread/too much information thread in a very short amount of time.

Thanks for playing! We have some lovely parting gifts for you behind the red curtain.
