Dr. Phillip Tierno Jr, chief of clinical microbiology & immunology at NYU Medical Ctr & leading authority on tampon health risks has said that because viscose rayon offers up to 4 times more specific surface area than cotton, every case of TSS is caused in part by the use of this material.
Girls can be sure about what's in their tampons by moving to organic brands containing 100% pure cotton grown without pesticides & not bleached w/chlorine. letstalkperiod (dot) com has more info on organics.
Agreed I have had strings breaks and what not...pads are over all safer

It's when the tampon collects bacteria and it gets into the blood stream. Pads are more easy to use, less hassle.

This must truly be a nightmare for her parents.
