In just a few days, he lost feet and 18 phalanges of his fingers. The cause of the infection is related to <strong>the misuse of menstrual cups and tampons<strong>; however, the information provided in this regard is very vague and confusing.<\/strong><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">At <em>Sensual Intim<\/em> we have tried to emphasize the importance of the correct and healthy uses of the menstrual cup.

But one night he began to suffer mild pain until it intensified and had to go to the emergency room. In the hospital they believed that he suffered from kidney stones; however, the tension continued to drop until they arrived with the diagnosis of Toxic Shock Syndrome.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: tahoma, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;\">By staying longer than it should, the menstrual cup, as well as the tampon and pad, can cause the <strong>growth of bacteria<\/strong> that damage organs.
