The makers of Kotex brand tampons, Kimberly-Clark, have issued a voluntary recall on certain tampons currently being sold throughout Canada and the United States. As reported by Yahoo! Lifestyle, the company is recalling U by Kotex Sleek Tampons, Regular Absorbency after complaints came in about the quality of the product.
According to Kimberly-Clark, consumers have been complaining that the tampons in question have a pretty major malfunction: they fall apart inside the user. Numerous complaints have come in about the tampons unraveling or falling apart when users attempted to remove them.
Some users were forced to seek medical attention after tampon pieces were left stuck inside their body. Others sustained injuries of varying degrees when attempting to remove the tampon pieces on their own — a move medical experts strongly advise against.
Additionally, the company admits that users have complained about irritation, infections, and assorted other unpleasant symptoms after using the tampons in question.
