The process of inserting a tampon involves placing a small, absorbent plug into the vaginal canal to absorb menstrual flow. The device is typically made of cotton, rayon, or a blend of both and comes in various sizes based on absorbency needs. Successful insertion ensures comfortable and discreet management of menstruation.
Proper usage allows for greater freedom and participation in daily activities during menstruation, including physical exercise and swimming. The historical development of internal menstrual protection reflects evolving societal attitudes and technological advancements aimed at improving comfort and hygiene. The availability of different absorbency levels allows for personalized management of menstrual flow, minimizing the risk of leakage and discomfort.
