Why do we need tampons? After all, usually parents and doctors recommend that young girls use pads, motivating this with a lot of reasons.
But after a while they still show interest in tampons and are not too eager to return to regular pads after trying them in action. Tampons (their use is incredibly comfortable) allow you to forget about the critical days for a while. Perhaps, everyone is familiar with such an unpleasant situation when the gasket “moves out” to the side, as a result, a stain remains on the clothes. This can happen at any moment and greatly spoil not only the dress, but also the mood. In addition, pads can rub on sensitive skin, and flavored versions can provoke an allergic reaction. In addition, they quickly begin to smell unpleasant, few women want to think if the interlocutor will notice that she has critical days.
Why do we need tampons and why do many ladies prefer these particular products? The use of pads can lead to a violation of the microflora of the vagina. This is due to the so-called "greenhouse effect", because they are made of synthetic, non-breathable material, and therefore the areas of contact overheat. Even if you don'twant to completely abandon conventional hygiene products, remember that unusual situations are what tampons are for. After all, you are unlikely to dare to go to the sea or the pool on critical days without this little thing. The use of tampons helps to make active pastimes, such as going to the gym or hiking, more comfortable.
What are tampons? There are tampons with and without an applicator. The latter are more compact, but their use is not always convenient. If you still choose this look, remember about hygiene. Tampons with an applicator are less demanding on the conditions of use, because the hands do not come into contact with the body, in addition, the length of the applicator is optimal for insertion, that is, you do not have to think about whether you inserted it deep enough.
The only negative is that they cannot be left in the vagina for more than 3-4 hours. Why use tampons if you can't use them at night? Indeed, here it is necessary to proceed from considerations of expediency. At night, it is easier to use a pad, and even possible leaks will not be as frustrating as if it happened on the street or in the office. In addition, in some situations, the use of tampons is contraindicated. For example, after childbirth, gynecological operations or procedures, with inflammation of the cervix or thrush. Many women are frightened by the small but still present risk of developing toxic shock syndrome. This is a condition caused by bacterial toxins entering the blood through microdamages in the mucosa and can be fatal. The disease is manifested by nausea,vomiting, dizziness, headache, convulsions, fainting. At the first symptoms, consult a doctor immediately. But, of course, it will not come to such a state if you change tampons in time.
You may decide not to even try, preferring time-tested, though not as comfortable, pads. Weigh all the pros and cons and choose!
