So! Tampons are the thingy you stick up your (private parts). I'm sure you know this. In my opinion, pads are nicer, because you aren't sticking an item up yourself, but if you play sports, they can be good for those where you wear a leotard or sweat a lot.
Basically you shove it up and hope for the best. Be sure to change it at least every 4 hours, otherwise bacteria and gunk can build up in there and you could get an infection.
