In short, no. If you take a pad off and then put a new one on after engaging in this activity it's fine. The cases with tampons as laid out in the article above are from decades ago. I have read that if you left a tampon in for ages and ages when it should be changed than that could cause issues.
Someone else can expand but you're fine. Just be sure to use a towel to protect bedding, mattress if doing this. In fact there is evidence to support that masturbation during menstruation can actually help calm cramping. Regardless a lot of people do this it's just what you prefer and comfortable with.
