That clear sticky stuff is normal to get before and during your period.
You shouldnt use tampons for your regular vaginal discharge,unless you are on your period,because they can cause irritation.
Sanitary Pads/napkins and pantyliners are best for when you have heavy discharge,when you ARNT on your period.

But dont use a tampon unless your on your period.

I dont think you need to wear a tampon for the discharge stuff but if you want to I guess you could. nothing will happen but it might be uncomfortable.

Don't wear a tampon when you are not on your peroid. You greatly increase the risk of Toxic Shock Sydrome. One of my mom's friends died of this.

do NOT do that!
it is extreemly dangerouse and if you do it you need to stop now
...discharge is normal, its your vaginas way of cleaning itself...
your discharge does not require a tampon...if your worried about it a lot, try a panty liner
but not a tampon
if you wear it when you dont have your period ytou are greatly increasing your risk of TSS
toxic shock syndrome
this usually happens when you leave them in for way to long or they break up inside you
and tss can be fatal
...its unhealthy to have a tampon in all the time, and its not necessary
so yes, something CAN happen if you use one ehen you have a discharge
its NOT safe

it looks like you got a lot of really good answers to your question but I still would like to tell you that when I worked as an adult entertainer we all wore the smallest ones we could find (mostly reg size, tampax brand) every night we would cut the strings off and put them in. The reason why was because the black light on the stage would show the discharge. I worked every night for about 8 hours a night and I would change them twice a night I did this for 3 years and I never got TSS. Thank god !!! So now every since then its kinda been a habit I don't use them alll the time but if I know I am going to be out for a while I just don't want to be walking and some might come out cause I hateee that feeling.

I am not telling you to do it because it is your choice to take. You can get TSS and die from it. But I am just letting you know that alll dancers use them and you never hear about them dieing from TSS. Good luck !!! Maybe try panties liners...
