Caused by Staphylococcus aureus what condition became prominent in the 1970s when tampon-using women were getting it?
The condition prominent in the 1970's in tampon using women was Toxic Shock Syndrome (TSS).
Certain tampon brands started using super-absorbent materials that were not safety tested, these materials caused vaginal tears which resulted in vaginal hemorrhaging and higher risk of TSS as it gave bacterial toxins from bacteria like Staphylococcus Aureus direct access to the bloodstream. Tampon companies not only continued to sell these tampons but also heavily promoted these new tampons to get more women using them. At the time nothing was known about TSS or tampon risks so women were also using these tampons for far longer than they should have, thus allowing larger numbers of bacteria to multiply which also increased the risk of them contracting TSS.

Why do you turn purple when you cant breathe?
When you can’t breathe, your body isn’t getting enough oxygen, leading to a condition called hypoxia. As oxygen levels drop, the blood can become deoxygenated, which may cause a bluish or purplish tint to the skin, especially in areas like the lips and fingertips. This discoloration is known as cyanosis and indicates that the body is not receiving adequate oxygen, which can be a sign of a serious medical condition that requires immediate attention.
