Can wearing a tampon when you're not on your period hurt you?!
Question: Can wearing a tampon when you're not on your period hurt you?

Hi Brittany:
There is always a chance that you could get TSS. When it was close to the day I was suppose to start I used a pantie liner until I started. And I always had tampons in my purse. Tampons cost too much to waste them.
Yes, don't do that. Read the instructions in the box, you could develop toxic shock syndrome. It's rare but dangerous. Never use tampons in anticipation, only sanitary towels. Be safe :)
no, but it's a waste. Tampons aren't cheap and you will probably tend to leave it in there longer since you aren't bleeding.
I'd use a panty liner instead and have the tampons in your purse for when it starts.
