Can i get uterine cancer from using tampons and douches?

im concerned about my hormonal balance could it be early menopause?

No you can't get cancer. Douching is really not a healthful practice though, besides being completely unnecessary, it changes the protective acid balance in your vagina, changes and the normal flora.

If you think you are peri-menopausal, see your doctor and get your GnRH level checked.

I don't see how these two questions are related though, are you having symptoms like abnormal bleeding, If so please see your doctor.

Douches aren't safe they throw off the good bacteria levels and that can cause problems. Tampons can cause TSS.

If you don't like tampons, use a Mooncup. I love mine!
