Product Information

Full details

The Tampax Pearl Super Plus Extra Tampons (18 count) are designed for individuals seeking reliable and discreet protection during their period, especially on heavy flow days. The key benefit is their LeakGuard braid, which helps prevent leaks. A potential consideration is that 'Super Plus Extra' absorbency is intended for heavy to very heavy flow and may be more than needed for lighter days. This product offers advanced protection with a comfortable, smooth applicator for easy insertion and a discreet wrapper for on-the-go confidence.

FAQs

What absorbency level is 'Super Plus Extra'?

Super Plus Extra is designed for very heavy flow days. It is the highest absorbency level offered by Tampax Pearl and is suitable for protection up to 8 hours.

How often should I change my tampon?

Tampax tampons should be changed every 4 to 8 hours, or more often if needed. Never leave a tampon in for more than 8 hours to reduce the risk of Toxic Shock Syndrome (TSS).

Can I swim or exercise with this tampon?

Yes, Tampax Pearl tampons are designed to be worn during physical activities, including swimming, due to their secure fit and leak protection features.

What is the LeakGuard braid?

The LeakGuard braid is a feature of Tampax tampons that helps divert fluid into the tampon's core, providing an extra layer of protection against leaks.

Are these tampons safe for sensitive skin?

Tampax Pearl tampons are generally well-tolerated. However, if you experience irritation, discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional. The applicator may contain latex.

How do I dispose of a used tampon?

Wrap the used tampon and applicator in its original wrapper or toilet paper, and dispose of it in a trash bin. Do not flush them down the toilet.

What is the difference between Super Plus and Super Plus Extra?

Super Plus Extra offers a higher absorbency level than Super Plus, specifically designed for the heaviest flow days or for overnight protection when maximum absorbency is needed.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty inserting applicator

Ensure you are relaxed. Try a different angle or position (e.g., standing with one leg elevated). Ensure the applicator is oriented correctly.

Experiencing leaks

Check that the tampon is fully inserted and positioned correctly. Ensure you are using the appropriate absorbency for your flow. Try a tampon with higher absorbency if your flow is very heavy. Replace the tampon every 4-8 hours or as needed.

Discomfort after insertion

The tampon may not be inserted correctly. Remove it gently and try reinserting it. Ensure you are using the correct size for your body and flow.
