How many onces does a tampon hold?

Tampon absorbency is measured in grams.

  • Light absorbency: <6g
  • Regular absorbency 6-9g
  • Super absorbency 9-12g
  • Super Plus absorbency 12-15g
  • Ultra absorbency 15-18g

These are absorbency ratings for conventional tampons - e.g. organic tampons like Emerita or commercial tampons like Tampax - tampons such as soft tampons like Beppy, Sponge tampons like Jade & Pearl, or cloth tampons do not have absorbency ratings and can vary greatly.

Is it normal for a girls period to be late even if she hasn't had any sexual activity?

It can happen to anyone. It can be caused by stress, a change in your hormone level, if you've started working out recently - or stopped, a change in your diet.... It can be caused by multiple things, but if there is a chance you might be pregnant, and are already late, you can take a HPT just to make sure. Your hCG levels should be strong enough to detect if you are late. If there is no chance of you being pregnant, I wouldn't worry about it unless it still hasn't come in a week or two. You might want to consult your physician at that point.

Can you urinate with a tampon inserted in your vaginal?

With enough effort I'm sure you could force a tampon into your urethra, but needless to say it would hurt like hell and likely lead to a urinary tract infection.

The urethra is small and sensitive, tampons have no place in the urethra.

Why do you have bleeding halfway through your cycle?

Implantation will appear before you expect your period and many people mistaken it for spotting before their period begins.

Implantation bleeding occurs when an egg has been fertilized and implants into the lining of the uterus. Because the lining uterus is made up of blood, there can be a bit of blood expelled in some women.
