You know, I used to hate tampax too until I tried the tampon in question (pearl). I LOVE it. I get no leaks, I can't feel it - and I never have problems sliding it up there.
I actually was wondering the other day (I am on my period right now) if the tampon ever leaves anything in you.
****CAUTION***
When I was pulling it out of me the other day, I noticed the top of it was kind of pulled with little cotton strings coming off. It was the first time I ever noticed something like that, though.
***************
I can believe that maybe the tampax pearl might leave some fibers in you - but I am sure most of it just desinegrates after a while. I've been using the things for about 7 months now and haven't had a problem. If there was such a thing as developing an infection other than TSS, the FDA would force tampax to put it as a caution with the TSS caution.
So, I don't think the story is true. If there were people who got sick from tampax pearl, the FDA would have made tampax do something about it by now - or at least be looking into it. They wouldn't let them keep making a product where the proved cause of infection is linked directly to it.
(BTW: This isn't meant to be mean to the original poster - but I thought I would give me 2 cents since I use tampax pearl.)
