ok i have 2 questions having to do w/ tampon use and toxic shock syndrome.
*that rule that u leave a tampon in 4-8 hours... is that just like thats how long you can use it and then you have to wear a pad or something...or can you change to a new one?
*well i accidently fell asleep on the couch last nite and i still had my tampon in since around 5:30 to about 8 (AM) I'm extremely scared that i might be at risk for toxic shock syndrome. Can someone tell me what the symptoms are? and how to treat them? please help me i am so scared! also i am 13/f if that does anything. please help me! (link)
Toxic Shock syndrom, you will start feeling extremely sick already, don't worry if you feel fine right now, just change your tampon now. try not to leave it in for long next time. It is better to use a maxi pad while you sleep. In most instances TSS usually occurs mostly in women who leave them in for over a day. Don't worry so much ok.
