RELATED FAQ

Q: How long can I wear a tampon?

A: When using tampons, it's important to choose the lowest absorbency necessary for your menstrual flow. And because the amount of flow varies from day to day, it's likely that you will need to use different absorbencies on different days of your period. Selecting the right absorbency comes with experience, but as a guide, if a tampon absorbs as much as it can and has to be changed before 4 hours, then you may want to try a higher absorbency. On the other hand, if you remove a tampon and after 4-8 hours white fiber is still showing, you should choose a lower absorbency.

Q: How does Tampax help stop leaks?

A:Tampax Cardboard Tampons are designed to expand widthwise to fit your individual form and have a LeakGuard skirt to help stop leaks before they happen.

Q: If I like Tampax, what other products would be right for me?

A:For the ultimate in comfortable, dependable protection during your period, next time try Tampax Pearl, Tampax Pocket Pearl, and Tampax Pearl Active tampons.

Tampax review

I have been using Tampax regular tampons since I first started using tampons. They have always been easy to use and offer great protection.

Best Applicator

I really have only ever purchased tampons with cardboard applicators or no applicators at all. I was intimidated buy the open ended tip on these applicators at first, but now I realize they are so much better. No scraping from thin cardboard edges when I insert this one, and the cardboard tube is super sturdy with a comfortable gloss finish. Where this tampon applicator really shines is the anti-slip grip. Super comfortable to hold and I don't have a problem with it getting slippery like I do with other cardboard applicators. The design and sturdiness of the applicator prevents the tubes from coming apart, a problem I have with almost all other cardboard applicators. The only downside is I really only like using the lites. The tampon is tiny, the applicator is brilliant and slim. I've never ever used a super tampon before in my life so this multipax is a bust. I would stop buying my regular organic cotton tampons with cardboard applicators if I could buy the lite tampons separately. The tampon itself could use improvements but it is comfortable so I don't have many complaints about it. I would use a less than ideal tampon just to use the incredible applicator, and I know that sounds weird, because applicators are not entirely necessary, but they are certainly useful when conditions are not all that sanitary, like public bathrooms. These tampons are just so easy to use it is almost joyous.

BRING BACK SLENDER REGULAR!!!

PLEASE do NOT discontinue Slender Regular tampons. These are the ONLY tampons that I find comfortable, even after having a baby! Regulars are too big, lites are too lite. PLEASE do NOT discontinue this product! Also, I prefer a cardboard applicator. I don't like plastic at all. For this reason, I have continued buying Tampax tampons for over a decade. No joke. Please listen to your audience and do NOT discontinue the Slender Regulars, UNLESS you plan on offering an equvalent product.

THE BEST!!!

I have recently tried Kotex tampons and I have to say, I didn't feel "safe" using them. They didn't seem work as great as Tampax. With Kotex it seemed as if the tampon wasn't place right, so when I removed it, it seemed to "fall apart". I will never try another brand again! I'm sticking with Tampax, it's the BEST ever!!!!!

It's all I buy

It's a great product and I don't purchase any other kind. It provides a lot of protection and is just as comfortable and unnoticeable as the other "fancier" brands and styles (like the all-plastic kinds).
