TSS


Question Posted Saturday August 4 2007, 10:46 am

If leaving a tampon in for too long can cause TSS, then why cant pulling one tampon out, and then imediately putting another one in not cause TSS? It's essentially the same thing, isnt it?

No it is not the same thing because the new tampon is clean and sterile.

hey,
actually, it's not essentially the same thing. :P
this is because the only reason TSS is caused, is because of the blood being set, and bacteria forming. so, if you change the tampon every few hours, there's less of a chance for bacteria to form and make you sick!

You get TSS from when you're blood and stuff starts growing bacteria on it, so if you switch tampons, then it wouldn't be on there.

that's why you needa change tampons every time you go to the bathroom hun.

No, it's not the same. The blood and other wastes on the tampon staying in your body for too long cause TSS. Therefore, a clean one wouldn't have blood on it and wouldn't cause TSS.

no, tss is an infection.
if you leave on in, then the blood/ urine on it will get old. and will sstart to grow bacteria and stuff.
but if you put a new one in, then its clean.
