You also might just try a different type of tampon. Different kinds(tampax, o.b.) are made to flare more at the base and can offer more protection. You should try buying a few sample packs, or ordering samples, of each. The diva cup is a good idea as well. I don't like them, but I've heard good things.And yeah, most people have pubic hair all the way around their anus.. it's just how it works. And guys are even worse! I agree with the poster that said those boys need to grow up. Don't be embarasssed. If you really feel you must be emparassed keep your tampons in your pocket or take your purse to the bathroom every day of the month. Boys aren't as attentive as we'd like to think, btw. If they are being rude tell them to get bent. Also, why are you changing your tampon so much? They can be left in up to 8 hours(change it more during the day, but you're usually good to go during the day). You might try a heavier absorbancy. Always use the lightest absorpancy you can to reduce your risk of TSS, but if you are using 'regulars' and you have to change your tampon every two hours it's time to step up on the absorbancy.
