ABSTRACT:
A tampon comprising and elongated absorptive member, housing an elongated expandable member having a hollow cavity, which is expandable on insertion of air. Optionally, at least one non-absorptive member is arranged in a spaced relationship about the outside surface of the tampon material, the non-absorptive members causing a spacing between the absorptive member and vagina wall. This increases the comfort at the interface of the tampon with the vaginal walls.
