Can Tampon Use Cause Blisters ?
I have been using tampons for about 9 years and within the past year every month like clockwork on the third day of my period I get thea bumps or blisters in the same spot, on the left side of my vagina. I have tried changing brands but that has not helped or solved anything. Could this be an std that comes regularly as if scheduled or set off by my tampon use?

No its isnt an std.It could be related to the tampon,causing a reaction.Changing brands wont help unless the the material of the tampon is different.Try using pads for a couple of months and watch.
