In the fifth century A.D, the tampons were created by Egyptian women from softened papyrus. In the year 1931, the first modern disposable tampons were created by an American, Dr. Earle Haas. The tampon is inserted into a wound or body cavity to absorb blood. It is made from a bulk of rayon or cotton or a mixture of the two.
In 1929, the modern tampon (with applicator) was first invented and patented by Doctor Earle Haas who wanted to invent a tampon that could be effectively mass produced. Earle Haas filed for his first tampon patent on November 19, 1931. His patent description was for a catamenial device, derived from the Greek word for monthly. He later trademarked Tampax as the brandname for his tampon product. Gertrude Tendrich founded the Tampax company for the mass production of tampons after buying the patent and trademark rights from Earle Haas. Tampax Tampon Patent (Dr. Earle Haas) #1,926,900 Tampax enjoys its fame from having sold the first tampon with an applicator (1936), patented by Dr. Earle Haas of Denver, Colorado.
