An applicator for insertion of cargo into a body cavity is provided. The applicator includes an applicator body having a number of walls and at least one breach. Greater flexibility in the applicator body is achieved due to the breach. This flexibility of the applicator body enables cargo to be desirably held in a holding space of the applicator body until it is to be inserted into the body cavity. During insertion, a plunger engages the cargo and pushes it from the applicator body. The flexibility of the applicator body walls facilitates the movement of the cargo. The breach can be located or formed in various positions including along intersections of applicator body walls, intermediate applicator body walls, as an open wall, as well as continuously along substantially the entire length of the applicator body. In one embodiment, the applicator is configured to securely hold the applicator body and the plunger together.
