These reusable tampons by Imse are made of two layers of organic cotton. They are chemical free and are OEKO-TEX certified. The tampons come in packs of 8. They are available in three different sizes. Choose the size of your wish in the dropdown menu above.
Before the first use:
Wash the tampons in the washing machine and/ or boil them before the first use.
User instructions:
Roll up the tampon as tightly or loosely as you wish. You could roll the first bit skewed, so it tapers down towards the end and extends the tampon a little bit. Then turn the string around the tampon. If you wish to, you can knot the string to make the tampon keep its rolled shape. Insert the tampon like a disposable tampon. Change the reusable tampon every 4 to 5 hours, or when saturated. It is best to rinse out the tampon after usage and then store in a wet bag until laundry day. You can also choose to store the tampon dry in a wet bag and let the washing machine rinse it before the actual washing. This does increase the chance of staining. The tampons can also be pre-soaked in cold water with salt, but do make sure to rinse them out. Wash the tampons in a mesh bag with your other laundry. After washing, you can choose to boil them again to make sure there is no soap residue left. Do not use bleach or fabric softener.
Please note: just like disposable tampons, 100% cotton tampons can also cause TSS (Toxic Shock Syndrome). Change them often and mind the symptoms of TSS. Do not wear the tampons longer than 5 to 6 hours to decrease the chance of TSS.
