Tampon Care and Hygiene Tips

To maintain good hygiene and prevent any infections or discomfort, consider the following care tips:

1. Choose the Right Absorbency
   Select a tampon with the correct absorbency for your flow. Using a tampon with too much absorbency can cause dryness and irritation, while one with too little absorbency may lead to leaks.

2. Avoid Fragrances
   Fragrances in tampons or sanitary products can irritate the sensitive skin around the vagina. Choose unscented products to minimize this risk.

3. Change Regularly
   Changing tampons regularly (every 4-8 hours) helps prevent bacterial growth and the risk of TSS, a rare but serious condition linked to tampon use.

4. Use a Backup Product
   For extra protection, consider using a pantyliner or pad in addition to a tampon, especially during heavy flow days or overnight.

5. Stay Hydrated and Maintain a Healthy Lifestyle
   Drinking plenty of water and maintaining a balanced diet can help keep your menstrual cycle regular and reduce any discomfort you may experience during your period.
