Very interesting! I remember when I got my period, in 1983, the fear of TSS was still very real. Most of my friends were terrified of using tampons and I was the first to do so.

How wonderful to have access to this research! I remember when the word about TSS came out - it was scary! Then OB came out and it was kinda scary too....it took me much longer than it should have to be comfortable with my body. I hope we're making progress.
