you can get tss from any tampon if its left in too long
i prefer the cardboard tampons becuase they will decompose back into the earth whereas the plastic ones will just add to the landfills
cardboard ones arent that uncomfortable at all... but if you are beginning to use tampons, like for the first time, than i suggest using a plastic one till you undesratnd tampons better, than switch to cardboard =]

Plastic, cardboard, and ones without any applicator like OB.

The applicator (or lack there of) will not increase nor decrease your chances of getting toxic shock syndrome. Like the person below me said, it's how your body reacts to it.

To avoid the (small) risk of TSS, change your tampon regularly (every 4 to 6 hours, or as needed), use the minimum requirement for your flow, and use a pad at night time.

you just get tss depending on your bodys reaction to the tampon. i use plastic ones. their easier to get in, and i like them better. just my personal oppinion though.
