I have gone more than 25 years of menstruation without using tampons more than maybe a total of a dozen times altogether. I find them very uncomfortable and they make my cramps much much worse. It's not a matter of how far I push them in, either. I resigned myself years ago to the fact that I'm just a pad kinda girl. The only ones I can tolerate at all are those tiny little OB ones, which I might use once in a blue moon under unusual circumstances.

I don't know if it's because I'm kind of on the small side or what. I'm not "short" like Shani mentioned though - actually I'm kind of a long and narrow shape inside. Interestingly, I can't use a diaphram either - even the smallest size they make is still uncomfortable. Anyhow, rest assured you're not the only one.

The thing is, after years of doing it this way, now the thought of blocking that stuff up inside me doesn't sound very appealing at all. After all, it's supposed to be coming out, you know?
