Answer

Assalaamu alaykum
It is permissible for a woman to wear a tampon. However, doing so does not mean she is not experiencing haidh. She will still be considered to be in a state of haidh even if the tampon prevents the blood from coming out. All those acts that are prohibited during haidh will remain prohibited even though she may be wearing a tampon.
And Allah Ta'ala knows best
