So there you have it. Removing a tampon is just a five-minute dance with your own body. It’s messy, sometimes awkward, but always doable. You’re basically a small-surgery wizard with a great sense of humor.
Remember: You are not broken, your body is not weird, and that tampon is just a temporary guest. Every single person with a period has been where you are. We’re all in this sticky, wonderful, slightly weird club together.
Now go forth, be kind to your vagina, and maybe treat yourself to a hot bath. You just mastered a life skill. You’re a rockstar.
