In 2005, according to the CDC, TSS caused:
- 24,564 low level TSS (L-TSS) resulting in scaring of tissue.
- 12,056 cases of fertility impact / reproductive harm in women
- 1,564 deaths, with 603 of them even when tampons were used correctly.
So are women trying to be like men by using a product that completely hides their period instead of a much safer pad?
Why do smart women makes such a foolish, careless, risky decision?
You can't rely on the manufacturers to warn you - they make $$ selling them to you. This stuff is happening even with *correct* usage.
