First time tampon user

I’m on my 4th day of a surprise period from accidentally missing two days of my birth control. Its been one of the heaviest periods I’ve had in a long time.

——here is some tmi——-

My labia are super uneven and one side is much larger than the other, so when I use pads it tends to over saturate one side and cause leakage.

——congrats the tmi is over——

Well! For the first time in all of my 27 years of being alive, I successfully used a tampon last night. It was hecking uncomfortable as I could feel it the whole entire time. It wasn’t a dry uncomfortable but a pressure I could feel almost like a deep, light cramp. It managed my heavy flow well until right as I woke up, I felt some leakage as I was laying there.

Wish me luck, I’m going to try using em at work!
