How To Pick The Right Feminine Hygiene Product For You

Pros And Cons Of Tampons

A tampon is a feminine hygiene product designed to be placed inside a woman's body. Women have used them for many years to absorb blood during menstruation. Tampons contain a penetrator, string, and applicator tube that helps with insertion.

Of course, there are pros and cons of tampons. Some women use tampons because they do not allow blood to flow out of the body and are considered more sanitary. Women often wear tampons when they are physically active and want more freedom of movement.

Since tampons are worn inside the body, they cannot be felt, and the blood isn't seen leaving the body. They do not feel wet, bulk, and also come in a selection of different absorption levels to fit all kinds of flow. On the other hand, some women prefer not to use them due to the risk of developing pelvic inflammatory disease or toxic shock syndrome. It can also be difficult to gauge the absorption needed when using a tampon.
