Is there a brand of feminine product that doesn't contain cotton? tampons caused me to have pid, for i'm allergic to cotton.

Tampons: You may be more likely to be sensitive to the scented tampons. It would be unusual for you to be allergic to cotton- what clothing could you wear?? Avoid scented products. Avoid douching. Water based lubes only- no scented ones. Make sure you clean any products that you use in or around your vaginal area. Always urinate after sex- this helps prevent infections, also.
