Avoid rayon tampons: Tampax, Playtex, or Kotex as they pose higher risks.Opt for cotton tampons: Cottons, Emerita, or Natracare as they are safer.


Always use lowest absorbency and change absorbency as your flow changes - start with lowest absorbency, if it leaks within 1-2 hours it's safe to use the next absorbency up, if a tampon isn't completely saturated after 4-6 hours you need a lower absorbency or to switch to pads with light flow.


Opt for non-applicator - the sole purpose of applicators is to limit genital contact, but your genitals are your own and touching them is normal, all applicators do is add to plastic waste! Non-applicator are simpler and easier to use as they allow you more control over depth and direction.

How soon can you use tampons after inserting Mirena?

Yes, it's perfectly okay to use tampons with Mirena or any other IUD.It's recommended that you don't use internal menstrual products like tampons or menstrual cups for the first month with an IUD, this is because this is when it is most likely the IUD would come out so you need to be extra careful. After that first month it's safe to use most tampons and menstrual cups, but soft tampons and softcups are not recommended as they sit too high in the vagina.
