I am currently on holiday in Spain and my period has started a week early. I therefore only have a couples of pads with me that I brought in case of an emergency. I´m obviously going to buy some pads but I can´t see any of the usual English brands I would buy and I was wondering if using Spanish pads would be safe? I.E. would they increase my risk of any infections or TSS?
Thanks!

Tampons cause TSS if left in and forgotten about. Pads do not cause TSS. :) [ karenR's advice column | Ask karenR A Question ]
