[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I had no idea this was such a thing. I’ve honestly always flushed them but will reconsider that now. The clogged pipes hadn’t even crossed my mind. A neighbor obviously changed hers at our house last week and frankly I was surprised to see what was obviously a used tampon wrapped in toilet paper in my guest bathroom trashcan. Makes sense now but I have always flushed them so I was surprised [/quote]

How old are you?  No one ever taught you not to flush?  Really?  I just cannot fathom this.  You haven't seen not to flush on a sign in a bathroom about a million times by now?[/quote]

DP. I’m 44 and did not know this. I was taught not to flush the applicator, but never heard that flushing the tampon itself was a problem. The only time I’ve ever seen signs in bathrooms are in very old buildings, like built pre-1900.

I will do better from now on, for sure. I’m honestly a little concerned about what a mess this could make though. Some of you who wrap up your little tampon in a few squares of TP and dispose in the can without drips and splatters everywhere must have very light periods.[/quote]
