What are the advantages of using Burp cloths?

If you're talking about burping, you're talking about absorbency.

Is it okay if you use a super tampon for a regular period?

No, you should always use lowest absorbency for your flow.Tampons don't just absorb blood they also absorb vaginal moisture, this means tampons dry-out vaginal tissues causing splitting and ulceration which give TSST-1 toxins responsible for TSS a more direct route into your bloodstream. For each 1g increase in absorbency TSS risks increase by 33%, thus using lowest absorbency tampons for your flow is very important to reduce risks.

What are the characteristic features of cotton?

How will you know if a certain absorbency of tampons is right for you?

You use differing absorbencies throughout your period according to your flow, the general rule of thumb is to start with lowest absorbency during full flow - remember don't use tampons before menstruation, with light flow, or while spotting. If the tampon leaks within 1-2 hours it's safe to use the next absorbency up, but if the tampon is not saturated with blood after 4-6 hours you need to use the next absorbency down - or if already using lowest absorbency switch back to pads. It's important to change absorbency as your flow changes and always use lowest absorbency - this is because tampons can dry-out vaginal tissues causing discomfort and damage that allows TSST-1 toxins to enter the body more easily so increasing TSS risks. For each 1g increase in absorbency TSS risks increase by 33%.
