Tampons okay to use?

Postby Lissaucd » Fri Sep 03, 2021 12:22 pm

Embarrassing question! Are tampons OK to use when recovering from C diff?! I don’t want a spore to get up in any areas Ans cause an infection. Remember, I suffer from extreme anxiety and tend to overthink a lot.

C diff spores only cause infection in the digestive tract.

Thanks Beth! I’m sure you have noticed I overthink everything and my anxiety is bad. I have a new therapist Ans she is helping a lot! Along with all of you! You all have been so helpful- can’t thank you all enough
