Okay I have a question about tampons...?!


Question: Okay I have a question about tampons!.!.!.!?
I keep seeing questions about girls freaking out about "should I leave my tampon in while I pee!?" or "should I take it out while I'm asleep!?"

and people actually saying it is gross to leave it in to do both of those things!.

Have I been doing the wrong thing for 10 years by leaving it in when I pee and sleep!?

Am I supposed to take it out while I do those two things!? Am I missing something!?!?!?Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
If you were changing it everytime you peed, you would need a new box every day! It is okay to pee with it in and sleep!. The box does not warn against this!. It does warn that you should not leave one in for longer than 8 hours!. So if you're going to be sleeping with one in, make sure you change it as soon as you wake up!.

If you've been wrong this whole time, then so have I!Www@Answer-Health@Com

I have always left it in when peeing!. The pee comes out of a completely different hole, so why not I ask!. You Can sometimes get pee on the string of the tampon which obviously is full of bacteria when you pull your panties back up!.

But it has Always been unhealthy to sleep in a tampon!. That is a ****-ton of bacteria that is not supposed to be there, and Can cause alot of problems!. Use a pad when you are sleeping!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

If you have been doing it for 10 yrs, why change now!? This are probably kids saying this stuff because they don't have a clue of what is what!. You can see that by some of the questions and answers on this forum!. I have over 20 yrs of experience using tampons!Www@Answer-Health@Com

you can leave it in while you pee, but it's bad for you to keep it in while you sleep!. tss can be very deadly!.
so pee with it in all you want, but wear a pad while you sleep!.
good luck, hope this helped!.

No KoKoKitty!.!.!.!. I have been doing the same thing for the last 16 years, we just know what to do and don't worry about it!.!.!.!. ohh, and for it having to be changed every four hours, that's a bunch of nonsense!Www@Answer-Health@Com

you can pee and sleep with tampon but you should not keep same tampon more than 7-8 hours - some people recommend pads for night because of long relaxed sleep - read below about tampons and TSS riskWww@Answer-Health@Com
