Will I get TSS if i wear tampons to bed at the beginning of my period, but not at the end?

Question

So I have been reading up on TSS and I sleep with tampons in at the beginning of my period when my flow is heavy but switch to pads when it is light. Is it better to sleep with pads all the way through my period to lower my risks even more, or is it OK to still sleep with tampons in?

Answer

Its fine to sleep in tampons as long as you don't go pass "8" hours. So if you sleep pass 8 Hours wear a pad ...if your already wearing one and got like 4 hours left on it what ever set a alarm . But for NO reason should you go over 8 hours!!! And choose the right absorbed for your flow very important  cuz you don't wanna leave back fiber tissues from lack of absorbing ,which I read its not a good thing to leave behind too.

Answer

It's fine to sleep with tampons. As long as you don't go more than 10 hours with the same one, you're fine.

Answer

I've been using tampons for at least 10 years and I always use a tampon day and night! The longest I have left one in was 12 hours or so and I was fine. But you should change them at least every 10 hours. I have a really heavy period that tapers to really light so the flow only changes the amount of time you can keep it in without leakage.

Answer

Just put in a fresh one right before bed and change it as soon as you get up.

Answer

I used to but they're so drying to me...I hated that. They'd be painful to remove. Switched to a Diva Cup 4 years ago, no more issues. They stay in 12 hours no problems. ?

Answer

I ALWAYS sleep with a tampon in when I'm on my period.
