Beppy «Hollow Tampon» is a reusable tampon made from 100% medical-grade silicone and differs in construction from conventional fibre tampons. Its flexible hollow design collects menstrual fluid inside rather than absorbing it into fibres. The purple tampon has a 15 ml capacity and is stringless, latex-free, hypoallergenic and vegan.

An integrated extraction ring is provided for removal. The flexible silicone adapts to the body, while the stringless design makes the product suitable for activities such as sport and swimming. The Hollow Tampon can be worn for up to eight hours. With appropriate use and care, the supplied product information states that it can be used for up to five years.

After removal, wash the tampon thoroughly with water and mild soap. It can also be boiled for more thorough cleaning. Make sure it is clean before reinsertion. Its 15 ml hollow chamber and reusable construction distinguish it from disposable absorbent tampons and other menstrual products.

Directions and precautions: Read the instructions carefully before first use. Do not wear for longer than eight hours and clean thoroughly after each use. Tampons are associated with the rare toxic shock syndrome (TSS). Do not use if you have a known sensitivity to silicone. The Hollow Tampon is not a contraceptive.
