TAMPAX PEARL SUPER PLUS TAMPONS WITH APPLICATOR
PRIMARY USES
1. Extra Heavy Menstrual Flow Management with Super Plus Absorbency
Primary Use: Provides super plus absorbency (12-15 grams) for heavy to extra heavy menstrual flow days using a tampon designed with MotionFit technology that gently expands to adapt to the body’s unique shape, offering up to eight hours of comfortable protection .
How it helps: For the gynaecologist and primary care physician, patients with menorrhagia (heavy menstrual bleeding) need the highest absorbency options to manage their flow without frequent, disruptive changes. Super Plus absorbency is intended for heavy to extra heavy flow days, typically when a tampon needs changing before 4 hours on Super absorbency . The FormFit design allows the tampon to gently expand once inserted to fit the body’s individual shape, providing full protection without discomfort even during the heaviest flow . For the patient with heavy periods, this means having the right absorbency for their most demanding flow days with protection that feels barely there.
2. Dual Protection System with LeakGuard Braid for Maximum Leak Prevention
Primary Use: Features Tampax’s exclusive Dual Protection System combining a LeakGuard braid that helps stop leaks before they happen and FormFit technology that allows the tampon to gently expand to fit the body’s unique shape, providing up to 100% leak-free protection for even the heaviest flow days .
How it helps: For the gynaecologist addressing patient concerns about heavy flow leakage, the fear of leaks is a primary reason women with menorrhagia restrict activities during their period, especially on their heaviest days. Only Tampax has a LeakGuard braid that helps stop leaks before they happen, working alongside the tampon’s ability to gently expand to fit the body’s unique shape . This dual protection system provides all-day comfort and protection for up to eight hours, even on extra heavy flow days . For the patient, this means confidence to engage in daily activities, work, and social events without worrying about leaks during their heaviest flow.
3. SmoothTouch Plastic Applicator for Comfortable Insertion of Higher Absorbency
Primary Use: Features a SmoothTouch plastic applicator with an anti-slip grip and rounded tip that provides smooth, comfortable insertion, offering 5x smoother insertion compared to cardboard applicators, particularly important for higher absorbency tampons which may be slightly larger .
How it helps: For the gynaecologist addressing patient concerns about tampon insertion comfort, higher absorbency tampons can sometimes feel larger or more difficult to insert. The Tampax Pearl applicator features a SmoothTouch plastic applicator with anti-slip grip and rounded tip for easy and comfortable tampon insertion . The applicator design allows for controlled, comfortable insertion, with the smooth plastic material reducing friction . For the patient, this means a more comfortable tampon experience even when using higher absorbency products for their heaviest flow days.
4. Perfume-Free, Clinically Tested Formulation for Sensitive Skin
Primary Use: Made without perfume, free from dyes (except the braid which contains skin-friendly pigments), free from chlorine bleaching, and clinically tested to be gentle on skin, with Oeko-Tex certification for independent testing of harmful substances .
How it helps: For the dermatologist and gynaecologist, the vaginal mucosa is highly absorbent and sensitive to chemical exposures, making hypoallergenic menstrual products essential for patients with sensitivities or allergies, particularly during heavier flow when tampons are worn for extended periods. Tampax Pearl tampons are free from perfume and chlorine bleaching, with a core free of dyes . They have been clinically tested to be gentle on skin and independently tested for harmful substances by Oeko-Tex . The tampon is also free from latex and BPA . For the patient with sensitive skin or concerns about chemical exposure, this provides a safer, gentler option for menstrual protection even on extra heavy flow days.
SECONDARY USES
1. Overnight protection for extra heavy flow nights: For patients with menorrhagia who experience very heavy nighttime flow, the Super Plus absorbency provides up to eight hours of protection without the need for middle-of-the-night changes, allowing for uninterrupted sleep and reducing anxiety about morning stains .
2. Post-gynaecological procedure bleeding management for heavier procedures: For patients experiencing heavy bleeding following procedures such as LEEP, cone biopsy, or dilation and curettage (D&C), these tampons provide the highest absorbency for post-procedural bleeding when cleared by their healthcare provider.
3. Swimming and water activities during extra heavy flow days: For active patients with menorrhagia who wish to swim or participate in water sports during their heaviest flow days, the Super Plus absorbency tampon provides reliable leak protection for up to eight hours, allowing full participation in aquatic activities without interruption .
4. Extended protection for patients on anticoagulant therapy: For patients prescribed anticoagulant medications (such as warfarin, apixaban, rivaroxaban, heparin, or enoxaparin) who experience significantly heavier menstrual bleeding as a side effect, the Super Plus absorbency provides the highest level of protection needed to manage medication-related increased flow.
5. Heavy flow management for perimenopausal patients: For perimenopausal women experiencing unpredictable, very heavy, and prolonged bleeding episodes, the Super Plus absorbency tampon provides the highest absorbency needed to manage the heaviest days of perimenopausal bleeding, allowing patients to maintain normal activities.

1. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
-
Toxic Shock Syndrome (TSS) warning: Tampons are associated with TSS, a rare but serious illness that may be fatal. Read and save the enclosed information. The risk of TSS increases with higher absorbency. Use Super Plus only when needed for heavy to extra heavy flow, and switch to lower absorbency on lighter days.
-
Maximum wear time: Do not wear a single tampon for more than 8 hours.
-
Proper insertion: If you can feel the tampon, it probably hasn't been inserted far enough. Remove that tampon and insert another one. When properly inserted, you should not be able to feel the tampon at all.
-
Do not flush: Tampons can cause plumbing blockages. Dispose of used tampons in a waste container.
-
Change frequency: Change tampons every 4-8 hours depending on flow. On heavier days, you may need more frequent changes. If you are changing Super Plus tampons every 1-2 hours, consult your gynaecologist as this may indicate menorrhagia requiring medical evaluation.
-
Allergic contact dermatitis: Although clinically tested, discontinue use if persistent itching, burning, or irritation occurs. Consider switching to a different brand or 100% cotton alternative.
-
Postpartum use: Consult a healthcare provider before using tampons after childbirth or gynaecological surgery.
-
Keep out of reach of children: Store tampons in a secure location where young children cannot access them.
2. FIRST AID MEASURES
-
TSS symptoms: If you experience sudden high fever, vomiting, diarrhoea, sunburn-like rash, dizziness, or fainting while using tampons, remove the tampon immediately and seek emergency medical attention. TSS can be fatal if not treated promptly.
-
Retained tampon: If you cannot remove a tampon or suspect part of a tampon remains in the vagina, seek medical attention from a gynaecologist or visit an emergency department.
-
Allergic reaction (mild): Discontinue use. If irritation persists, consult a healthcare professional.
-
Allergic reaction (severe - hives, swelling of lips/tongue/throat, difficulty breathing): This is extremely rare with tampons. Seek emergency medical attention immediately.
3. FIRE FIGHTING MEASURES
-
Flammability: Cotton and rayon materials are combustible. Tampons will burn if exposed to open flame.
-
Extinguishing Media: Use water spray, foam, dry chemical powder, or carbon dioxide (COâ‚‚).
-
Fire Response: For small fires, use appropriate extinguisher. For large fires, evacuate area. Firefighters should wear self-contained breathing apparatus (SCBA) and full protective gear.
