If during periods, tampons are the most comfortable product for you, you have probably wondered whether or not it is healthy to keep it on all night. 

According to gynecologists, you can sleep with a tampon at night only if you do not leave it for more than 8 hours.

Prolonged use of tampons is associated with TSS (toxic shock syndrome) - a rare but serious disease thought to cause infection by certain bacteria. Therefore, the main rule is to change the tampon frequently as during periods women are more at risk for this disease.

By holding the tampon (or linesin) properly for longer hours, we inadvertently create a friendly environment for bacteria that further cause various infections.

Although the buffer material may vary from one type to another and the safety may be greater, to be comfortable, do not keep it for more than 8 hours maximum.

Doctors even suggest taking care of personal hygiene during the removal / replacement process as bacteria can be transmitted and stay in the hands.
