Q: does the type of tampon you use make you more likely to get TSS? i mean if you use regular as opposed to light will i be more likely to get TSS?

thanks
The higher the absorbency of the tampon, the higher the risk of getting Toxic Shock Syndrome. You should always use the least amount of absorbency possible when you are on your period. I reccomend getting a box of assorted tampons. They usually include light, regular and super. That way, you can have an assortment to choose from depending on how heavy your flow is.

thanks

I am a 22 year old mother of two that has had to grow up a lot faster then her years. I have been married for four years, but now am seperated from my significant other due to lack of his being able to handle a mature relationship. I can relate to almost anyone, and have been sought out, both online and off, for my advice. I answer all questions truthfully and honestly. If I don't know an answer to a question or I think other resources would be helpful, then I go into researh mode until I find an answer or the proper resource. I aspire to be a life coach in the future, because I like helping people make decisions to make their life better for their future. I am here not only to answer advice questions on this site, but to also chat with you if you feel like you need a more indepth one-on-one help.



Here are some of the guidelines I go by when answering advice questions:

  • I am always truthful in any advice I give.
  • I would never give anyone any advice that I would not follow myself.
  • I take into consideration your feelings when answering questions, but I will not sugar coat anything. If you are wrong, then you are wrong and I will tell you so.
  • If I cannot answer a question to the best of my ability, then I will point you to someone who can, or I will research my butt off until I find a helpful solution for you.
