∙ 9y agoAll tampons need to be changed every 4-6 hours - 8 hours at maximum, but it's best to avoid wearing tampons for this long to stay hygienic and reduce health risks. Applicators sole purpose is to limit genital contact, they do nothing to change tampons so applicator tampons are no different from non-applicator tampons in terms of how long they can be used for.

How do you change a tampon?
You simply pull the tampon string gently but firmly - or insert clean fingers vaginally to grab the tampon itself in order to remove. Once removed you wrap-up the used tampon and throw in the waste bin, or if you'reusing reusable tampons clean out in the sink. You can then insert a fresh tampon or reinsert the reusable tampon - although it's best to alternate with pads after tampon use.
