is it normal to still “feel” a tampon?

Question

This my first ever cycle where i used tampons, i just had a baby 3 months ago so i felt like it was time to start. I could kinda feel the tampon, but i think it was the tampon string that i was feeling because it was just near the opening where i was feeling something. i pushed it in far, and made sure to angle it right. I can also still “feel it” there even after taking it out after using them all day.. is that normal?

Answer

I can’t wear tampons, they have never been comfortable for me and I have tried them numerous times over the past 20+ years, even after giving birth they are very uncomfortable and I can always feel them, no matter how far I put them in, even the light/slimfit ones. Some women just can’t use them.

Answer

I can’t wear tampons. My periods were usually light and I could always feel then

Answer

First. You should not feel it or be uncomfortable with it. Sometimes just sizing down helps, because if you feel it, it is still dry, so most likely too absorbent.
But if you are using them first time, you think about it like a lot, and you kind of can feel it because of that also, but that is not uncomfortable, that is just the thought, something might be there... That passes in time, when you get used to it and actually don't constantly think about is it in ok.

Answer

I had my first child 6 years ago and my last 4 years ago and I still can’t use tampons comfortably since. I used to use them just fine prior to having my kids but ever since I can feel them to the point of them being severely uncomfortable when I try to use one.

Answer

If a tampon is inserted correctly you shouldn’t feel it. At least not enough for it to be bothersome. You’ll feel the strong sometimes maybe depending on position and your movement, but tampons should not be super noticeable all day, I guess.
