id=\"1-what-is-a-vaginal-tampon\"><\/span>1- What is a vaginal tampon?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"viewer-1jla915144\">Vaginal tampons are a medical product made of 100% cotton and cylindrical in shape to absorb menstrual blood. The only difference from the sanitary pads sold in the market is that they are not visible from the outside because they are applied inside the vagina.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"viewer-4m95915146\">Vaginal tampons should only be used to absorb menstrual blood. They should not be used to absorb discharge or odor. Since menstrual blood does not flow out of the body while the tampon is being applied, there is no odor associated with menstrual blood. It is inserted into the vagina while standing or sitting. When the tampon is to be removed, it is sufficient to pull the string at the end.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"viewer-eehaq15148\">It is quite easy and practical to apply. However, people who use it for the first time may have some difficulty. Tampons can be used with peace of mind by women who usually do sports or swim, and women who want to swim in the sea during <a href=\"https:\/\/serkanoral.com\/en\/how-many-days-does-menstrual-bleeding-last-how-much-is-it\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>their menstrual period<\/strong><\/a>. If the tampon is inserted correctly, it is absolutely not possible for it to fall out on its own during sports or swimming. Having a tampon inside does not prevent the woman from urinating. Tampons come in small, medium and large sizes. The size that suits the person is selected according to the intensity of menstrual bleeding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"viewer-0kute15152\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2-is-it-harmful-for-virgin-women-to-use-tampons\"><\/span>2- Is it harmful for virgin women to use tampons?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"viewer-w7uyb15154\">There is currently no special tampon production for virgins. However, since the hymen may be damaged during the use of tampons, it is not recommended to use them. For this reason, it is more appropriate for virgins to use pads.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"viewer-10prm15156\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3-how-to-insert-a-tampon\"><\/span>3- How to insert a tampon?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"viewer-7fv1815158\">If you have never used a tampon before, you may have some difficulty. If you tense up while inserting a tampon, take a deep breath and relax as your muscles will tighten up even more, making it harder to insert. Then, insert the tampon into your vagina with slow and gentle movements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"viewer-mfwly15160\">The instructions for use and placement included in the tampon boxes will make your first use easier and more practical.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"viewer-zciii15163\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4-will-the-tampon-fall-out-on-its-own\"><\/span>4- Will the tampon fall out on its own?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"viewer-upee415165\">If used correctly, the vaginal muscles will hold the tampon in place, preventing it from falling out, even on days when you are actively exercising.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"viewer-wmc3b15167\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5-are-tampons-risky-for-infection\"><\/span>5- Are tampons risky for infection?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"viewer-3bx6515169\">If used properly, the risk of tampon infection is low.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"viewer-u7mc315171\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6-what-are-the-things-you-need-to-know-about-using-tampons\"><\/span>6- What are the things you need to know about using tampons?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Contrary to popular belief, there is no problem with using tampons during urination because the urinary meatus and the place where menstrual blood comes from are different places.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The fact that the tampon is inside does not create any pressure for urine. Therefore, there is no need to be afraid.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The use of tampons allows for swimming, dancing, and participating in strenuous sports activities.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>It prevents the odor that occurs during menstruation and allows women to go through this period comfortably.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>It would be appropriate to use a pad on the days when your period is lighter and at night.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Unlike using a pad during heavy bleeding during your menstrual period, you do not use more than one tampon.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Never use tampons outside of your menstrual period due to discharge or any physiological reason.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Prolonged use (6 to 8 hours), especially in hot weather, may cause &#8220;Toxic Shock Syndrome&#8221;. For this reason, you should remove your tampon before the time is extended.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"viewer-w1fg815199\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"7-which-tampon-should-be-chosen\"><\/span>7- Which tampon should be chosen?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"viewer-9l7ih15201\">Tampons are sold in 3 different sizes. Along with the standard laboratory measurements performed regarding the absorbency of these sizes, it has been argued that mini and regular sized tampons can be used on light and moderate days of menstruation. Super sized tampons are suitable for use during periods of moderate and heavy bleeding. If you are going to use tampons for the first time, then definitely read the instructions on the box.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"viewer-pv9qq15203\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"8-what-is-toxic-shock-syndrome\"><\/span>8- What is toxic shock syndrome?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"viewer-lc5xp15205\">The most important point to consider when applying a tampon is to use it for a maximum of 6 to 8 hours. The tampon should be changed within this period. If it is not changed, it brings the risk of infection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"viewer-ow58p15207\">The infection referred to as toxic shock syndrome is a serious infection related to long-term tampon use. For this reason, the use of sanitary pads is always recommended over tampons. It is more appropriate to use tampons only in cases of necessity. Since sleep can last a long time, care should be taken not to use tampons when going to bed at night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"viewer-lzuvs15209\">Toxic shock syndrome develops when the infection in the vagina causes serious systemic effects throughout the body. Problems such as fever, nausea, vomiting, weakness, and dizziness may also occur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"viewer-9fyds15211\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"9-can-i-go-to-the-toilet-with-a-tampon-in\"><\/span>9- Can I go to the toilet with a tampon in?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"viewer-6feeq15213\">There are 3 different openings in the female genital area that open to the outside of the body. These are the urethra, vagina and anus, where urine is produced. These are independent attachments that are not related to each other. For this reason, a tampon in the vagina does not prevent you from going to the toilet in any way. After going to the toilet, you do not need to remove or change the tampon. You can only pull the string of the tampon aside with your hand while urinating so that it does not get wet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"10-can-a-tampon-get-stuck-inside-me-and-get-lost\"><\/span>10- Can a tampon get stuck inside me and get lost?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is definitely not the case. Only the tampon string can get into the vagina, that&#8217;s all. In such a case, do not panic, relax and try to find the string by slowly inserting two fingers into the vagina. If you cannot do it, do not force it any further and call your doctor immediately.<\/p>\n\n    <div class=\"xs_social_share_widget xs_share_url after_content \t\tmain_content  wslu-style-1 wslu-share-box-shaped wslu-fill-colored wslu-none wslu-share-horizontal wslu-theme-font-no wslu-main_content\">\n\n\t\t\n        <ul>\n\t\t\t        <\/ul>\n    <\/div> \n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>1- What is a vaginal tampon?
