  • Publication number: 20100056981
    Abstract: A tampon having an improved finger pocket. The finger pocket can have a width that can be calculated by the equation DF=DT?(L1+L2), where DF is the width of the finger pocket, DT is the diameter of the tampon, L1 is the thickness of the steering lip on a first side and L2 is the thickness of a steering lip on a second side, and/or a ratio of the indentation width to the base diameter from about 1:1.1 to about 1:1.5. In certain embodiments, the base can have at least one steering lip adjacent the indention that can have a thickness of at least about 0.5 mm. A method for making a tampon having an improved finger pocket that can include forming a compressed pledget having an insertion end and a base, and compressing the base of the pledget with a heated compression member to form an improved finger pocket in the base.
