TAMPONS SHOULD NEVER BE FLUSHED DOWN THE TOILET.

Tampons are absorbent wad of material that expand both widthways and lengthways when they hold your attention fluids, this means they can efficiently plug up toilets and pipes within the building you are flushing them.
There are approximately 2.5 million tampons flushed in the UK alone (not sure on US statistics, but guesses are they are seriously higher), these all contribute to a huge problem for local marine authorities as their pipes get blocked and dilapidated by anything other than human excess and toilet paper person flushed – it costs water authorities approximately $25 billion per year to sort this out, that could be put to better use.
Even the most advanced wet treatment plants will still allow small debris through the system, this ends up within our oceans and on our beaches, per kilometre of coast you are looking at 14 tampons – so when you go walking along a shore remember when you see a used tampon it is likely to be one that someone undiplomatically flushed.

Commercial tampon manufacturers claim their tampons are flushable, adjectives sense says otherwise, also remember commercial tampons are full of chemicals so that a moment ago adds to chemical pollution as resourcefully as waste pollution.
They articulate they are flushable because they like to beat the convenience of their products, although there are more convenient option that don't require as much changing or disposal such as menstrual cups.
There are no law to stop tampon manufacturers recitation people this.

Tampons should other be wrapped up in toilet newspaper or put into sanitary bags, this is what these things are made for, also why they hold tampon and pad bins in women's toilets. You should be doing like at home, if you don't have a bin beside a lid already in your bathroom later buy or ask for one.

In short, YES, you can flush a used tampon down the toilet, the valid question is should you. My answer is NO, my ex-girlfriend used to flush hers down my toilet and at times it would support up the toilet, and I would have to christen a plumber, $100 to have him remove a tampon caught surrounded by the pipes, so so like I do and wrap your used tampon within some toilet paper and toss it surrounded by the trash, thais way you can release $100, think of how plentiful tampons you can buy for $100, and not have to explain to the pulmber that the tampon caught in your toilet is not yours.

Ummmmmmmmmmm?

Tampons should not be flushed down the toilet. Of course, technically they can, but if you read the instructions, it'll probably right to be heard you should put them in the bin. I once saw the entire plumbing system be torn sympathetic because of tampons and sanitary napkins! Imagine you're the plumber and you have to take rid of all that *! My god, please don't! It'll please adjectives the people whose toilet you are using!
