The tampon is temporarily blocking the blood from coming out of your vagina. It acts as a barrier for the liquid coming out. So, it might seem as though it stops your period. But stress and hormones are more likely the cause. This happened to me a few times (long ago!) and for no apparent reason.
Make sure to use a very light-flow tampon and if it's still dry after four hours, switch to a pad. You can always switch back to a tampon when the flow begins (again). One way or another, your body will rid itself of the fluids. Ask your health care provider about this, perhaps he/she may have an idea as to why this happens physiologically (how this happens functionally). If there is any explanation.
