I have always wondered why it’s so bad to flush a tampon. I know tampons blow up a bit when wet, but even when fully saturated, they don’t get as big as a large turd. And they are generally made of cotton, not plastic, so surely they will break down well enough? Thanks.
EDIT TO ADD: I am not saying I flush tampons! I don’t. I just wanted to make sure there’s a good reason for it.

Well, your turd can be send to by sweage worker that deliver it to sweage treatment plant through a underground’s pipeline , which is far away for obvious reasons, cotton on other hand absorb water, which what most Tampon made of, cotton, and since it absorb water, the people who work underground have to removed it to prevent clogging.
I hope I answer your question.
