How to Use a Tampon

Tampons can be really overwhelming, uncomfortable, and scary but they don’t need to be. You can pull this video up on your phone in the bathroom and follow along. The first few minutes are how to instructions. The last minute or so is bonus information about tampons like when to take the out, my thoughts on applicators, and the "tampon tax." Stay curious!

Ideally we'd all use a product that are environmentally friendly like cups, reusable pads, and menstrual underwear. I made a whole video about them (link below). The reason I’m giving instructions on how to use a tampon specifically is because they’re usually the most accessible. People coming and going in the bathroom tend to carry tampons you could borrow/have. Going swimming and you get your period? -- tampons are usually around somewhere. I know guys and gals who keep a little baskets of them in their bathrooms for guests. Cool, right?
