It is likely that tampons will further irritate the
cervical ectropion and should be avoided.
We also recommend reducing the number of
bedikot during the
clean days to avoid irritating yourself. You should just do the
hefsek taharah, one
bedikah each on days 1 and 7, and an additional one on an intermediate clean day. You should perform the
bedikot gently and slowly and try to avoid hitting the cervix.
If you continue to have difficulty despite this advice, we suggest turning to your health professional for possible intervention.
