Tampons made with asbestos

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
No wonder so many women in the world suffer from cervical cancer and
womb tumors. Have you heard that tampon makers include asbestos in tampons? Why would they do this? Because asbestos makes you bleed more, if you bleed more, you're going to need to use more.

Status: False.

This just sounded like an urban legand when I read it after my sil sent it to me. Besides, I've used tampons for years and I don't think they made any difference at all in that regard.

Some people will say ANYTHING to get people to back their point of view... founded or not. Thank goodness for snopes!
