Women mostly use vaginal tampons in the summer months, during the holiday season, while exercising, or at private meetings, which causes irreversible damage when used incorrectly.
After applying the tampon to the vagina, it should be left in place for not more than 6-8 hours. If the tampon is left in the vagina for a long time, that is, more than 8 hours, it causes the growth of bacteria called cytophycoccus. The toxins secreted by these bacteria cause a life-threatening syndrome.
