Tampons won't fit inside me?

I'm a virgin and I don't do any kind of active activities, but I've tried time and time again to get a tampon inside me and it just doesn't work. I've tried different positions, when my flow is heaviest, and a few different sizes. I've tried thinking about sex, even. I don't like penetration; when I masturbate I only fondle my clit. I can stick a maximum of one of my slender fingers inside me, but it doesn't feel shockingly good. It's a little uncomfortable. But I want to be able to use a tampon! I don't want my doctor to break my hymen as I don't think that's even the problem. Has this happened to anyone else?

  • Make sure you're relaxed and not subconciously tensing your mucles. Also remember the vagina slopes backwards, so instead of just pushing upwards, push towards your butt at a diagonal angle.

    You should be able to use them eventually though.

    I was like this too. U just gotta work that tampon up there. Use a small one and make sure ur not too dry. Or u could just shove it up. I did that haha

  • Okay I will say it's normal. When I was a virgin, penetration was very uncomfortable (like with fingers) so I only ever masturbated by playing with my clit. And it was very difficult to fit any tampons in there as well.

    Now that I'm not a virgin (and haven't been since I was 19) I love penetration, and tampons fit fine. I guess you are better off using pads until you lose your virginity.
