ABSTRACT:
An improved tampon is provided having one or more loops placed entirely through the tampon for ease in insertion and removal of an attached spherical member into and from a body cavity. Moreover, the improved tampon can be impregnated at select depths with specific spermicides, anti-infectives, lubricants, hormones, antioxidants, amino acids, etc., to allow release of inner-impregnated fluids from the member into the body cavity. Closely controlled impregnation and/or coating of the tampon is achieved by a method of manufacture employing one or more sonic baths containing necessary impregnating and/or coating fluids.
