I haven't had any TSS symptoms but realized I had a tampon inside me for eleven days. Should I be worried?

Yes. Unless you are on a period you shouldn't be using a tampon and if you are you need to change it several times a day. The bacteria is what causes the TSS and it can kill you. I hope you have stopped doing this.


Can you get tss when you use tampons but you faint and vomit before you use them during your period?

Yes, you can get TSS whenever you use tampons. If you're already feeling faint and vomiting then it may be harder to spot TSS symptoms; although with TSS as well as feeling faint you'd have a high fever. If you're ill it may be a good idea to avoid tampons this time, if you always feel faint and sick during menstruation you need to talk to your doctor about investigating why this happens.
