2. Wash your hands before and after using a tampon. This will help reduce the spread of bacteria.

3. Only use tampons when you have your period. Tampons are not intended to be used at any other time or for any other reason.

use the lowest absorbency tampon for your flow

Absorbency guide is an industry standard, whichever brand you use

Always use a tampon that has an absorption capacity that is less than your flow. It's better to use a pad or pantyliner in combination with a tampon than using a higher absorbency.

If you feel discomfort when removing a tampon and you can see the white fibres, it may be that it is not saturated enough and thus too high an absorbency.

toxic shock syndrome

What is TSS?

TSS (Toxic Shock Syndrom) is a rare but very serious illness that can lead to death. The symptoms of TSS can develop quickly - early recognition and treatment of these symptoms can usually prevent serious illness.

Early symptoms and signs of TSS are similiar to the flu and may include a sudden fever (usually 39°c / 102°F or more), vomiting, diarrhea, fainting or feeling like you are going to faint when standing up, dizziness, or a rash that looks like a sunburn.

If you have any of these symptoms during your period or soon after your period, remove the tampon and seek medical attention immediately. Let the practitioner know you have used a tampon recently.

how to reduce the risk of TSS

Tampons themselves do not cause TSS, however tampon use has been associated with an increased risk of TSS

Precautions for Tampon Use :

1. Use the lowest absorbency tampon necessary for your comfort and level of blood flow

2. Wash your hands before and after inserting / removing a tampon and avoid handling the tampon more than necessary before insertion. Use only one tampon at a time

3. Do not insert a tampon if it hurts to do so

4. Change your tampon as often as you need, but it must not be left in longer than 8 hours

5. The removal of a tampon should be easy, if the tampon is dry and difficult to remove the absorbency is too high or the tampon has not been left in long enough.

6. Remove the used tampon before you insert the next one and do not forget to remove the last tampon at the end of your period

7. Only use tampons when you have your period. Do not use tampons when you think you are going to get your period - use a pad!

8. If in doubt speak to your doctor about using tampons, especially if you have recently given birth, had a C section, a miscarriage, an abortion or any operation on your reproductive system.
