Tampons will absorb blood, but absorption does not stop bleedind...it only soaks up what’s spilled out until it can no longer do so. You need to apply direct pressure to the source of the bleed. Think of the vasculature as a water hose...you can put a towel down (tampon) and it will get soaked, but does not stop the hose (arteries/veins) from bleeding.
The military used a lot of unproven theory, up until recent times where we were able to collect and compile (quantifiable) data on battlefield trauma...Always verify sources.
