Ngokuqinisekileyo uya kwandisa umngcipheko wakho, kodwa awuyi kuhla nge-toxic shock syndrome (TSS) okokuqala ulibala. "Yithi ulale kwaye ulibale ukutshintsha itampon ezinzulwini zobusuku," utshilo uEvangeline Ramos-Gonzales, MD, ob-gyn kunye neZiko lezeMpilo yaBasetyhini eSan Antonio. "Akufani nokuba uqinisekisiwe ukuba uza kugwetywa ngentsasa elandelayo, kodwa ngokuqinisekileyo iyawunyusa umngcipheko xa ishiywe ixesha elide." (Ngaba ubusazi ukuba kungekudala kuza kubakho isitofu sokuthintela isifo esinetyhefu?)

Abaphandi baseCanada baqikelela uqhankqalazo lwe-TSS kuphela .79 kuwo onke amabhinqa ayi-100,000, kwaye uninzi lwamatyala achaphazela amantombazana akwishumi elivisayo. "Abaziqondi iziphumo ezinobungozi ezinokuthi zenzeke, ngelixa abafazi abadala benolwazi oluncinci," utshilo uRamos-Gonzales.

"Uya kugqiba izinto ezininzi ze-tampon ezingadingekiyo, kwaye yilapho ibhaktheriya inokufikelela kwizinto ze-tampon."

Iibhaktheriya, eziziibhaktheriya eziqhelekileyo ezihlala kwilungu lobufazi, zinokukhula ngakumbi kwi-tampon kwaye zivuze kumlambo wegazi ukuba awuyitshintshi i-tampon yakho rhoqo kwiiyure ezine ukuya kwezintandathu.

Iimpawu zokuqala zifana ngokusondeleyo nomkhuhlane. Ukusuka apho, i-TSS inokuqhubela phambili ngokukhawuleza, isuka kumkhuhlane ukuya koxinzelelo lwegazi olusezantsi ukuya ekungaphumelelini komzimba kwisithuba seeyure ezisibhozo, ngokophando olupapashwe kwiphephancwadi. Unyango lweklinikhi. Izinga lokufa kwe-TSS linokufikelela kuma-70 eepesenti, abaphandi bafumanise, kodwa ukuyifumana kwangoko kubalulekile ukuze usinde. Nangona kunqabile, khawulezisa ugqirha ukuba ucinga ukuba isifo se-toxic shock sisizathu sokuba uziva unefiva.
