I don't think one's body can 'reject' them, of sorts. Unless you're not using them 100% correctly. If they've been inserted right, you shouldn't really be able to feel anything. I don't believe that there is a direct link between the tampons and the stomach pains, though. You could just suffer from quite bad period pains, which you can get some good medication for.

I would suggest trying maybe a different brand or size of tampon, and try inserting it a different way from how you are now. You can find some good tips and techniques online and in the packaging itself, just incase you're doing it slightly wrong. Because as I said, you shouldn't really feel them at all. If all else you can try using pads instead. They're a little less discrete but hopefully they won't cause you discomfort.

Take care.
