What is the ruling on using tampons for an unmarried woman during menstruation?

The tampon is known as a cotton plug that a woman inserts into the vagina to absorb menstrual blood, serving as an alternative to sanitary pads. It is often used by married women, as its use by unmarried women may lead to the tearing of the hymen, making it impermissible for them. It is advisable to look for types specifically designed for unmarried women and to consult a doctor to confirm this.
