Personal hygiene products such as tampons are considered to be the achievement of modern technology. But even in ancient Egypt, women used a sheet of papyrus firmly twisted into a tube, which served as a swab for them. Similar items of intimate hygiene for women were also found around the world, and they were made of various materials.

During menstruation, a large number of women prefer tampons, rather than ordinary pads. Tampons do not stand out from under the thin cloth of clothing. Thanks to them, a woman can freely go to the pool, the beach or ride the sea.
If the swab is replaced, there is no danger of stains on clothing. That is why, during menstruation, women choose to use this particular personal care product. But with daily use, sometimes an important question arises about the safety of using tampons for health.
Experts believe that if a woman uses a tampon only in the daytime, then she will not get harm from their use. In the case when the use of tampons will be frequent, there is a likelihood of negative consequences.
During the period of menstruation, a woman has not only discharge consisting of blood, but also consisting of separated particles of the mucous membrane. Blood and liquid are absorbed by the swab, and clots of particles remain on its surface, thereby remaining directly in the vagina.
After a while, the number of clots increases, and they begin to dry out a little. After which they are removed along with the swab, but on the walls of the vagina there are specific rims that are nothing more than clotted blood clots.
Such formations can lead to various inflammations inside the vagina, causing a woman very serious discomfort. Therefore, experts recommend using tampons during the day, and at night it is worth replacing them with pads.
