| Abstract | A tampon is disclosed which provides for a comfortable withdrawal from a body cavity by allowing a portion of the tampon to collapse upon itself during withdrawal. The tampon includes an absorbent and a liquid-permeable cover. The cover at least partially surrounding the absorbent and together they form a softwind having a first end and a second end. The softwind is folded upon itself at three spaced apart locations to form an M-shaped profile. The folded softwind has first, second and third portions integrally joined together. A withdrawal string is attached to the second portion of the softwind to assist in providing a comfortable removal of the tampon from a body cavity. The softwind is then compressed into a cylindrically shaped pledget having an insertion end and a trailing end with the insertion end located adjacent to the second portion. The pledget is capable of being comfortably removed from a body cavity by pulling on the withdrawal string. |
