TSS, a potential fatal illness, occurs when bacterial toxins enter the blood stream through tears of the vaginal tissue caused by high-absorption tampons. Dr. Bruce Dan discovered the syndrome and revealed that the higher the absorbency of the tampon, the greater the risk for TSS, regardless of the chemical composition or the brand of the tampon. ^[1]
