Make sure you are relaxed while putting it in. If you tense up, it's going to be a struggle. If you struggle putting it in in one position, try another i.e. over toilet, standing with one leg up on something, etc.

Try a different applicator or a non applicator one. Try slender tampons.

You'll get it in a matter of no time.

Make sure you don't leave them in longer than the recommended time.

Getting the right position for you is always the first place to start and once you feel comfortable you'll find it easier to relax
