A member asked:
Can you tell me if i could use super tampons when i've only just started my period?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Super tampon: Super tampons might be uncomfortable at first. When you first start using tampons you may find it easier to insert a “slim” tampon with a smooth plastic applicator that has a rounded tip. Recommend that you avoid super tampons with cardboard applicators when you first start.
