Hi K,
So, what's the situation? Are you a virgin? If so, is your hymen intact? Have you taken a hand mirror and flashlight and gone on an inspection? You should, just so you know how you are built and what things are like, and, what the condition and composition of the hymen is like--or what may be left of it. This last bit of knowledge is helpful when it comes time to actually penetrate the hymen. The tip of the penis should be positioned against the opening if there is one, or alongside between the hymen and the vaginal wall. This is much easier than arbitrarily poking at the membrane.

If you are using Tampons, does insertion or removal hurt?

Please keep in mind that while inserting a finger into the vagina can be pleasurable, the only nerves are around the opening and just inside. What is pleasurable about having something inside is the sense of fullness derived, plus the stretching of the muscles associated with movement.

If you want to try and go inside, look or feel for the passageway and then insert your finger there.
