tarÂ·pon. n. pl. tarpon or tarÂ·pons. Either of two large marine game fishes, Megalops cyprinoides of the Pacific and Indian Oceans or M. atlanticus of Atlantic coastal waters, having a bluish-green back and silvery sides.
Tampons should be changed every 4-6 hours - some tampon companies  say 8 hours to make their products seem more convenient, but that's  too long to wear a tampon and if you â¦can go that long without  leaking you're using too high an absorbency.
How long does it actually take to get toxic shock syndrome? I've heard that the whole 6 hour max is just so that the tampon companies can't be sued and that it actually takes much longer. Is the 6 hour warnings true and if not how long does it really take?
