- __How does Tampax Pocket Pearl feel different than other tampons?__  
Tampax Pocket Pearl Tampons have a special LeakGuard Braid to help stop leaks before they happen, while a Smooth Removal Layer allows for easy removal. Plus, FormFit Protection gently expands to fit your individual shape.
- __How long can I wear a tampon?__  
You can wear a tampon for up to eight hours, but never leave a tampon in for longer than that. If you usually sleep longer than 8 hours, set an alarm or just use a pad instead.
- __How do I know which absorbency to use?__  
Choosing the right tampon absorbency can make a big difference to be comfortable and avoiding leaks. Take the Tampax Quiz on Tampax's website to learn more.
- __What makes Tampax Pocket Pearl different from Tampax Pearl?__  
Both Tampax Pearl and Tampax Pocket Pearl offer outstanding protection with a LeakGuard Braid to help prevent leaks. The main difference is that Tampax Pocket Pearl is compact in size so it can fit in your pocket. When ready to use, extend the compact applicator to make it a full-size applicator.

Wearing

No worries, your menstrual cup will never get lost inside you. Just like inserting your cup, it might take a few tries to remove it. Follow these steps, take a deep breath and stay relaxed: 

<p><span style={{color:"#282F7D", fontWeight:"bold"}}>Step 1:</span> Insert your fingers into your vagina and feel for the stem of the cup. Don't pull on it quite yet.</p>
<p><span style={{color:"#282F7D", fontWeight:"bold"}}>Step 2:</span> Use your abs and pelvic muscles to push the cup towards the entrance of your vagina.</p>
<p><span style={{color:"#282F7D", fontWeight:"bold"}}>Step 3:</span> While bearing down, pinch the base of the cup on the ridges, not the stem. This breaks the seal. While pinching, pull the cup out of your vagina. Dump the contents in the sink, toilet, or shower.</p>

Organic cotton is grown not manufactured. The quality varies considerably depending on the soil and rainfall. 

Global demand is high, so to make it sustainable - most cotton is grown from genetically modified seeds so less fertilizer, water, and land is needed.

PURE COTTON

Tampax Pure Cotton is processed free from elemental chlorine and free from chlorine dioxide. The cotton used in Tampax tampons is purified using a Totally Chlorine Free (TCF) process. 

The purification process also removes:
- The natural waxes & oils, so cotton is more absorbent
- Natural colorants and contaminants, so cotton is purified

Gently slide the applicator all the way in until your fingers touch your body. Then push the inner tube all the way into the outer tube until the ends of both tubes are even. Place the used applicator back into the wrapper and throw it away.

The cotton gin, short for engine, separates the soft fibers from the seed. The inventor, a native of Massachusetts, secured a patent on the cotton gin in 1793. The gin could do the work 10x faster than by hand. 

The gin made it possible to supply large quantities of cotton fiber to the fast-growing textile industry. Cotton fibers destined for this industry then go on to be spun into thread and woven into fabric.
