When you use tampons is it likely for you not to get wet?
Crazytoxic
If by 'wet' you mean producing vaginal discharge, then yes. Tampons don't just absorb blood they also absorb vaginal discharge so make the vagina dry, this is one factor to TSS: tampons dry-out vaginal tissues causing splitting and ulceration that allows TSST-1 toxins responsible for TSS direct route into your bloodstream.
