tampon for school
i don't want to have to change my tampon during school, but i'm afraid of getting TSS. if i left it in all day i would have it in from 6:30-3. that is like 8 1/2 hours. i know that your not suppose to wear it for more than 8 hours, but what are my chances of actually getting TSS if i do this? thanks :]

The chances are still slightly possible, but what I do is during lunch, I just keep one in my person and tell people I'll be right back, and I go to the bathroom and just change it there. [ Those are what those little boxes are in the stalls for ] So nobodys rushing you or anything and nobody knows. That's what most girls in school do. I hope I helped. <3

The chance is rare, but still possible. Just change it at lunch or whenever you aren't rushed. It's not a big deal - you're gonna have to change it eventually.

i dont think you would highly get TSS because the average hours you leave it in are 4-8 hours. if you still want to use tampons, change it during lunch ..but as the other advice said, wear a thin pad or something just in case it leaks because that can sometimes happen

It's possible you could get TSS but not too likely. It's far more likely that you will get some leakage if you wear a tampon that long.
Either change your tampon (lots of people do it, there are little boxes right there in the stalls for you too) or wear a thin pad along with the tampon, just to avoid embarrassment and the icky feeling.

this is what i do. i put a new one in right when i get to school then a new one in right when i get home. if tou feel the need to change then change it everytime you go to lunch.

In a rare case you could get TSS,
but dont risk it.
During school you get breaks,
which usally gives you enough time to change them, during your lunch our , or if you have some time inbetween classes.
