Scented Tampons
Feeling protected and comfortable when you're on your period is easy with scented tampons from CVS. Thanks to a number of well-known varieties and flow-appropriate sizes available, a visit to the feminine care aisle can help you find the tampon you'll want to keep on hand. Scented tampons are easy to tuck away in your bag or desk drawer, and they're a trusted way to make sure you're ready for whatever your cycle throws at you.
Are Scented Tampons Bad?
Although scented tampons, such as strawberry-scented tampons, can offer an extra layer of confidence while you have your period, experts suggest scent is purely optional - your body smells just as it should. While it's rare, some women may experience irritation from scented tampons or the materials they're made from. If that's the case for your sensitive skin, or if you've had issues with certain types of tampons in the past, CVS has unscented tampons that might be a better option for you.
Do Scented Tampons Cause Yeast Infections?
It's true that the vagina is the perfect environment for yeast to grow, but scented tampons are usually not the base cause of yeast infections. However, it's perfectly natural to be concerned with maintaining the vagina's natural pH levels, and anything introduced into the area can be a culprit. CVS carries many products that can help reduce the risk of interrupting your body's ideal pH levels. Desde Summer's Eve feminine cleansing washes to CORA organic cotton tampons, many options are available for keeping things as naturally balanced as possible. Things you can do to help your vagina maintain pH levels that are closest to its natural state include:
Using the appropriate size tampon for your flow
Changing tampons every 4-8 hours
Choosing tampons that are free of chemicals
Can Scented Tampons Cause Irritation?
While reactions to tampons can range from itchiness to infections, the cause can vary from woman to woman. Sometimes, a reaction is caused by the materials that products are made from. Other times, it can be chalked up to hygiene, illness or sexually transmitted issues. Although it's possible for other productos de cuidado femenino, such as pads and liners, to cause irritation, it's one of the most commonly reported scented tampon side effects.
