Do not use tampons overnight while sleeping.

  • Tampons need to be changed every 4-6 hours, which you can't do while sleeping.
  • When laying down less blood flows into the tampon, so it's like wearing higher absorbency.
  • You should alternate with pads to allow vaginal cleaning, overnight is most convenient for this.

If all you have is tampons what are you supposed to sleep in?

You should not sleep in tampons - tampons need to be changed every 4-6 hours and you need to alternate with pads to allow vaginal cleaning. If you don't have pads then use makeshift pads out of tissue or cloth folded into your underwear, and put a towel under you to be sure you don't leak on the bed.
