How do I insert the nevernot soft-tampon?

Wash your hands thoroughly before opening the tampon package. Remove the soft-tampon and the cotton thread and, if you want, tie the thread through the loop in the soft-tampon. For easier insertion, you can moisten the soft-tampon with some lubricant or clean water. Hold the soft-tampon between your thumb and middle finger so that the loop points downwards and squeeze the tampon. Due to the soft and flexible material, the soft-tampon can be inserted easily, even if it seems a bit large compared to conventional tampons. Now you can first insert the tampon with your thumb and middle finger and then push it further upwards, infront of the cervix, with your index or middle finger. You can insert the tampon in a relaxed manner while standing with one leg raised or in a squatting position.

Try to remove the soft-tampon without using the thread at first, so you get a good feeling for the handling of the soft-tampon.

The sponge is very soft and flexible and adapts to your body temperature after no time. If you skip the removal-thread, the soft-tampon is even invisible.
