I understand that for some people this is a very sensitive/embarrassing item to shop for. But, if you are even looking at reviews, chances are you need help in deciding too, so no need to be squeamish. First off, these are surprisingly tiny. I didn't think something so tiny could really do much absorbing and blocking, but they did, and effectively so. The classic tampons and applicators really were designed to avoid "messy" fingers, so those are longer than they actually need to be. Yes, with these ob tampons your finger is the applicator, but, as I found, it is way less gross than one may think. If you change your tampons as often as you should, there shouldn't be any mess to speak of. These tampons are wrapped in clear plastic, which has a little tab in the middle that you pull to unravel. Once the middle tab is removed, you can slide off the two end pieces of plastic. According to the instructions, you use the string to widen that end by pulling it back and forth and side to side. Then use your finger to create a kind of dent which will give your finger tip a place to be while inserting it. Being that there's no smooth plastic applicator to glide in, taking a breath so your muscles relax as you push it in will help in avoiding discomfort. Once it is where it needs to be (which should be about a finger's length in), you shouldn't feel a thing -if you do, push it further. I found it to be very comfortable, even less noticeable than the classic tampons. I get very heavy periods, and I found this worked better than the classic regular tampons at absorbtion and preventing leaks. I really like the idea of less plastic waste. With classic tampons, we use A LOT of plastic with all the applicators we throw out during that week! I feel like these O.B. tampons make it a lot easier to skip the luxury of plastic applicators, because of their effectiveness, ease of use, and comfort.
