My daughters are totally different, one uses tampons, one uses pads. When they were young, the tampon companies would send you a starter kit for young girls with a little book showing how to use them from a young girl's perspective. My daughter who uses tampons says the Tampax Pearl have the easiest to insert applicator and they have wings so they absorb better.

I had a hysterectomy 12 years ago, so I'm not personally up to date.

Wishing you and your daughter the best with this and her gymnastics!!

Are there olympic rings in the future????
I've actually been using Playtex Regular plastic applicators all my life. They slide in a lot easier than cardboard. I do not like Tampax, they don't slide out as easily and are not as comfortable inside for me.
