No, never use tampons when not menstruating.



Tampons are dry and absorbent, with no menstrual flow tampons will dry-out vaginal tissues resulting in the vaginal walls becoming damaged and ulcerated - this occurs whenever tampons are used but damage will be more severe when using tampons without any flow at all. This damage can not only cause discomfort but gives TSST-1 toxins responsible for TSS a more direct route to the bloodstream, thus using tampons before menstruation increases TSS risks.


Discharge is how your vagina cleans itself, it flushes out dead cells, dirt and bacteria in order to keep your vagina clean and healthy - it is not a good idea to prevent this self-cleaning function, particularly by giving bacteria a porous warm and moist environment such as a tampon.

Should you wear a tampon when receiving a massage though your period is not on?

No, tampons should only be used when you're on your period. Never use when not menstruating as this will be uncomfortable and potentially increase your risk of contracting Toxic Shock Syndrome.

Why do you use a tampon after your period as taken place?

You don't, you should only ever use tampons when menstruating.Tampons are not hygienic or healthy so they should be avoided when at all possible, if you do use tampons you only use them during menstruation. You shouldn't use tampons when not menstruating or even with light flow, with less blood tampons will absorb more vaginal discharge resulting in splitting and ulceration in the vaginal walls so higher risk of TSS.
