Does the tampon go in the same hole?

How do you know which hole to put the tampon in?

The tampon goes in the vaginal opening, located between the urethra, where pee comes out, and the anus. Using a mirror can be helpful to find exactly where the tampon goes. The vaginal opening usually looks more like an oval-shaped slit rather than a round hole.

Do you pee out the same hole you put your tampon in?

Your urethra is right above the vagina (towards your belly button) and this is where pee comes out. But don't worry; this opening is too small to fit a tampon, so you won't insert it here by accident. Your anus is the opening where your poop comes out, in your butt.

How do I know if I put the tampon in the wrong hole?
