Sometimes, VERY RARELY, tampons are a risk factor in causing TSS. If used properly, dont worry.

Leaving a tampon in your body can be a cause of TSS which is a buildup of bacteria and toxins in the body. TSS is very uncommon anymore, as tampons have been improved over the years. It is not something you need to worry greatly about.

Using tampons can cause tss. Also leaving them in while u are sleeping can cause tss. Dont do these things and u will not get it alright.
PS. Just a thought......

Tss increases with higher absorbency.In order to reduce the risk of tss,you should use the lowerst absorbency that meets your needs.

the cause of TSS is, when woman forgets to remove their tampon. They some times insert another and push up even further.The area becomes infected (refers: to internal) and a nasty odor leaks out,weeks or even months go by and thats when it gets bad.These is true for the girls that party and get drunk.I hope my information helps some one.

Build up of toxins usually produced by staph aureus, or e.coli.
This is usually done in the form of a foreign body, such as a tampon being left in for months.

Having tampons in too long. I'm sure there are other senarios, as well.
