    Do tampons have an expiry date?

    I just found a packet of tampons in my drawer that are about a year old. Are they safe to use?

    I'd say so as long as the wrapping is in tact.

    I would say they would be too. I reckon I've used some that have been in my cupboard for a year or something. Like I bought them before getting pregnant, then using them afterwards too. As long as the seal isn't broken.

    Yep, as long as they are still wrapped, no problem.
    I too find stray tampons in my handbag, makeup drawer, bathroom cupboard.
