TSS is Toxic Shock Syndrome. This can occur, but is very rare, when a tampon is left in the body for more than eight hours. Sometimes, girls who are sick and on their periods and use tampons may fall asleep and wake up and forget and leave it in for a day or more, that is one way it occurs a lot. If you have TSS you first start to develop flu like symptoms that accompany a rash that looks like sunburn. If you have this you lose a lot of fluids and get very dehydrated. This disease is really serious and can make you really sick. You have to be hospatalized if you have this and extremely rarely it can lead to death. To avoid it just make sure never to leave a tampon in for more than eight hours.
