Abstract: A leak resistant tampon system for increasing absorbency capacity and reducing leakage about a tampon device. The leak resistant tampon system includes a housing member having a front end and a front opening, a front collecting reservoir fluidly connected to the front opening, and a volume of highly absorbent material throughout but particularly within the housing member fluidly connected to the front collecting reservoir. The absorbent material preferably has a porous fluid permeable central channel within for increasing the overall absorption capabilities and capacity of the absorbent material. A plurality of annular ribs and concave grooves may extend from the outer surface of the housing member for creating a seal increasing absorbency surface area and efficiency when positioned within the vagina.
