Do Tampons Cause Toxic Shock Syndrome?

Hi someone suggested me to use tampons do they cause toxic shock syndrome?

@iqra Hi Tampons rarely cause infections leading to TSS. To lower your chances of getting the infection, change your tampon every 4 hours or so. Wear a thinner tampon, too. If you have fever, chills, diarrhea, nausea, or a rash 2-3 days after your period starts, see your doctor.
