The average woman loses about 80mls of blood each period. A regular tampon holds around 5mls, and a super plus tampon holds around 10mls. A tampon should be changed every six hours to lessen the risk of toxic shock syndrome.
The large Pixie Cup holds 25mls, and the extra large holds around 32mls. The Pixie Cup can go up to 12 hours without being changed. This is why Pixie Cup is so perfect for any summer adventure you have planned! You won't even need to think twice about your period.
