A member asked:
Hi, ive always had trouble inserting tampons and now i think i may have a microperforate hymen. when i look down there i can see my vaginal opening but the hole is so small?

You have a choice. A full tampon is often larger after use than during insertion. If you choose to use them you likely need to stretch the hole with some device until is permits insertion plus some. You are a virgin until you have partner sex, some women are born without or lose the hymen in non-sexual encounters. You could just use pads.
