Try squatting or gyn: Hi, this is actually quite common especially the first time you use a tampon. The tampon is small when it goes it, but after it gets full, it’s harder to take out. Try putting one leg up on a stool or the toilet seat and then squatting. You have to be relaxed and don’t squeeze your vaginal muscles and then ease the tampon out. You can also have someone help or go to see your gyn. Good luck!
