Tampons

I've only just begun to use tampons & I have a few queries.
Firstly, it's a little uncomfortable, especially when I sit. Does it ever become more comfortable to wear a tampon?
Secondly, if I need to pee, do I have to remove the tampon?
And finally, how often should I change my tampon?

if it's uncomfortable or you can feel it there, sometimes it's not in far enough, or sometimes it just gets better the more you use them.
change them every four hours[ish]
don't go for what the packet says is the maximum time, because that's not really healthy, hygenic, or nice.

and if you need to pee, no, you don't need to change it, but try to keep the string out of the way, haha.

Your tampon isn't in far enough if you can still feel it. You shouldn't be able to feel it at all, and that you can feel it when you sit down sounds like it just isn't in far enough. Make sure you put it in as far as you can, yeah? Don't worry about doing that - it's safe and the tampon won't get lost inside you or anything like that.

You don't have to remove the tampon when you pee if you don't want to - obvious just make sure the string is out of the way :P I personally change my tampon when I go to the bathroom, as it just feels cleaner and generally better.

It's recommended that you should change it every 4 - 8 hours.
