Tampons of the Early Days
Tampons have been in existence for thousands of years, and each culture had its twist to it. Of course, they didn’t have the flexibility most of these have today, but they still got the job done. For Egyptian women, they used papyrus, while Roman women used wool as the base material. But, they didn’t leave it at that!

Knowing how the Romans had some weird creativity skills, they decided to soak their tampons in things like opium to relieve the pain and belladonna for dilating the cervix. Tampons today are mostly made of rayon or cotton-rayon material, as well as some organic versions made from the inspiration of the early days by Dr. Earle Haas.
