ever have the tampon applicator get stuck and you can’t push the tampon in? (for cardboard ones)?

is there a best brand to use to avoid this? i know the question sounds weird, but i’m fairly new to tampon use and prefer cardboad as they are more environmentally friendly!

I use to work for Tambrands makers of Tampex tampons. First the only thing new the perl tampon is the braided cord to help stop leaks, The plastic applicator was first used in the compact tampons. If it is just the one tampon you had trouble or one box then it was more than likely a problem with the machine that makes the tampons. I know we would have to do test every half hour to check for defects like high expulsion presure or the inner tube falling out but when making 10,000 plus tampons a hour and running 3 machines not going to get all defects especialy when some times what caused that was a some thing stuck and would oval the tubs making them hard to push out and after a few machine would fix it self. If your having the problem with every one you try then more than likely it is in the way your holding IE mabe putting to mush preasure on the tube and making it go out of round so harder to expel the tampon. Also if it is one of the closed ended carboard aplicators with the petals that come over the head of the tampon it could be two of the petals got fussed together when it was made I know that can make them very hard to push out....

Are you specific you had it interior the final place? i be conscious of a pair of those that placed it of their pee hollow their first time. in spite of while you’re a virgin it is going to never injury. i come across that Tampax are not the final tampons to apply besides. If there isn’t any longer sufficient lubrication it won’t bypass in rather, and that they are too long for my physique. they start to slide out after awhile and that’s horribly uncomfortable. attempt one with a plastic applicator that covers the right of the cotton so it is going in easily. The plastic products additionally waft greater rather, while the cardboard would not constantly cooperate. as a results of fact which you’re new at it i in my opinion think of you’re able to attempt between the smaller ones first. they are talked approximately as “gentle days” or some thing like that. yet somewhat use plastic. somewhat study the learning. and somewhat determine you have it interior the final spot....
