i've noticed that the past coupe of periods i've had its hurt to put in tampons and its especially painful when i take them out.
what could this be and should i see a docter?
also is there anything i could do in the meantime to make it less painful as i have period at the moment and pads irritate my sensitive skin

I've noticed that sometime when my vaginal walls aree dry inserting and taking out tampons can hurt. Especially the cardboard applicators like Tampax. Try another brand like Playtex that has a smooth plastic applicator. And try keeping the tampon in a little longer before removing it. A dry tampon will usually cause some discomfort.

Try smearing some water soluble or contraceptive jelly in you Vagina and a little on the Tampon specially if you are using Tampax. Move your finger in and out
