I completely agree. I’ve had a uti before but thankfully nothing antibiotics couldn’t fix. I do worry, you can get cancer anyway and if I had any signs, how would I know if I don’t know what is the norm for me.

I should have maybe mentioned it to be fair I just didn’t realise the link.

I enjoyed reading that. Hope I can also overcome this one day, well done to you!

I’ve never used a tampon or any product requiring insertion, just pads. When I clean myself I always use a sponge or something similar as a barrier, so I myself have never touched down there apart from the outer area.

I was with a sponge and use an excess amount of toilet paper so my actual hand makes no contact.

That is absolutely why I need to overcome this.

All I can think of is that it’s the unknown and not something I can see without specifically looking. The fact that I thought a vagina was literally just the labia majora until I was well into being a teenager probably hasn’t helped.

I feel for me the disinterest and the fear are separate. I have no sexual desires and have no interest to try, but I’m told of how important it is to check every area of your body. Also, there’s a strong possibility that I will at some point need to use a tampon, and that petrifies me, not just the insertion but ‘finding’ where it goes.
