You want to avoid tampon use. If you choose to use tampons, next use them only when mandatory. For spotting I use a pantyliner instead.

Tampons are made of cotton and rayon. Cotton is the most pesticide-laden crop in North America and rayon is a synthetic fiber. With use, fibers of cotton and rayon are released into the vagina and can cause you to grasp sick. The longer the tampon stays in the superior the risk, as well as the superior the risk for toxic shock syndrome, which I hope you've read about a bit since using tampons. They are also whitened with chlorine bleach. They are toxic in my assessment.

I use the Diva Cup (http://www.divacup.com). It is a reusable menstrual cup. It's more economic and safer to use and near is no risk of toxic shock syndrome. i used to use tampons but found it hurt. Since the Diva Cup I stopped getting cramps. It also doesn't dry out your vagina. The thing is it's somewhat hard to gain used to at the beginning. If I be you I would look into alternative menstrual products like the Diva Cup, the Keeper, and if you're interested, reusable menstrual pad (made of cotton and can be washed).

To sum it up: no, don't use a tampon for light spotting. Use a pantyliner. If you choose to use tampons it's best to rotate their use, close to, use tampons during the day and pad at night, and pantyliners when you enjoy light spotting.

Yes- it is fine if this is the lightest absorbency and you do not leave it contained by longer than it's supposed to.

Well friends what do you think?

There's no rule to voice you 'can't', but there is an increased risk of TSS [toxic shock syndrome]. I suggest merely using tampons when your period is immense, and use sanitary towels, or "Pads" on your lighter days.

Is it true if I a boy comes in you, you can drink vinegar and you won't bring back pregnant?

no, its only suggested to use them on your heaviest days and single sometimes then. they can create toxic shock syndrome.

I would not wear it b/c of TSS risk. Use a protector wad; that should be enough. Just check yourself frequently within case it wants to be changed
