Whats the....?!


Question:

Whats the....?

Hey can any of you tell me, Out of the Women who wear tampons... Whats the ratio of Women who get TSS to Women who don't?

Or could you just give me a Web-Site to go to?

Thanks alot!


Answers:

I had TSS when I was 14.

The chances of getting it are like 1 in 100,000. I am 31 years old now, and have never met another person who had it. I have posted the question on here several times and never found even 1 person. My mom is an OB/Gyn nurse for almost 20 years and has also never met another case.

I got it from getting scratched by a plastic applicator. It was discovered during a pelvic exam done while I was hospitalized. I never even knew I had scratched myself until they told me.

I answered another question awhile back and went into a lot more detail... http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;...
