FAQs
How often should I change my tampon?
Tampons should be changed every 4-8 hours. Never leave a tampon in for more than 8 hours to reduce the risk of Toxic Shock Syndrome (TSS).
Can I use O.B. ProComfort Normal tampons overnight?
Yes, O.B. ProComfort Normal tampons are designed for higher protection and can be used overnight, provided you change it before going to bed and immediately upon waking, ensuring it is within the 8-hour limit.
What makes the ProComfort line different?
The ProComfort line features a SilkTouch cover for easier insertion and removal, and uses unique grooved technology to help direct fluid for better protection.
Are these tampons suitable for beginners?
While designed for ease of use, some beginners may find other O.B. applicators or lower absorbency options easier to start with. It's recommended to follow insertion instructions carefully.
What does 'Normal' absorbency mean?
'Normal' typically refers to tampons suitable for medium to heavy flow days. O.B. ProComfort Normal tampons offer higher protection compared to 'Light' or 'Mini' absorbencies.
Can I swim or exercise with a tampon?
Yes, tampons are suitable for swimming and exercise. The string should be tucked in or managed discreetly.
How should I dispose of used tampons?
Used tampons should be wrapped in their original wrapper or tissue paper and placed in a sanitary bin or waste basket. Do not flush them down the toilet.
Troubleshooting
Tampon is difficult to insert
Ensure your hands are clean and relaxed. Try a different insertion angle or position. Using a lubricant (water-based) on the tip may help if dryness is an issue, though the smooth surface is designed for ease of use.
Feeling of discomfort after insertion
The tampon may not be inserted correctly or at the right depth. Try removing it and inserting a new one, ensuring it is placed far enough in to be comfortable. If discomfort persists, remove the tampon and consult a healthcare professional.
Leakage occurs unexpectedly
This may indicate the tampon is full or not positioned correctly. Try inserting a new tampon, ensuring it's at the right depth and angle. If leakage continues, consider using a higher absorbency tampon or a backup menstrual product.
String breaks or comes loose
If the string breaks before removal and you cannot reach the tampon, do not panic. Relax, squat down, and bear down as if having a bowel movement. This may help push the tampon lower, making it easier to grasp. If you are unable to remove it, contact a healthcare professional immediately.
