A vaginal tampon and a method for fabricating same. The vaginal tampon for substantially absorbing menstrual flow includes a body having a proximal end for intravaginal positioning and a distal end for aiding in digital insertion and removal of the tampon, the body formed from a combination of an absorbent material positioned on a sheet of nonwoven material, the combination rolled together such that the absorbent material is contained within the proximal end of the vaginal tampon and the nonwoven material forms an outer surface of the body. The tampon has a head formed at the proximal end of the body from the combination of absorbent material and the sheet of nonwoven material rolled together, for substantially absorbing menstrual flow. The tampon also has a hollow tail formed at the distal end of the body from the sheet of nonwoven material rolled into an elongated hollow cylindrical member extending distally away from the head, the hollow tail allowing positioning of a finger therein for aiding in inserting and removing the tampon.
