Well, last year I had my son Seth and
shortly after I got an IUD. Then I started
to get inflammation. I told the doctor I
wanted the IUD removed and shortly after
being removed I recovered. Well, about
five months ago I started having irregular
periods and then spotted periods. So I
went to the doctor and my PID had came
back. It took me a month or more to get
rid of it. Even after getting rid of it
though I still was having trouble with my
period so i decided to get back on birth
control and that problem is starting to
straighten out. The biggest question I
have though is when is it safe for me to
use tampons again. I have been using pads
for months now and its really
uncomfortable. Not to mention I cant take
my son swimming. Any advice?

From what I read online, you should have a
follow up exam after treatment to make
sure you test clean. Also, you can use
tampons two weeks after treatment (if you
test clean).
