Q: Possible tampon lodging ?
asked by: chickie123 on May 31st, 2009

Help! I went water skiing yesterday with a tampon in. Since I'm a beginner, I took quite a few falls. Upon getting out of water, I noticed that over a period of one hour that water kept leaking out of me. I finally went to investigate, and noticed my tampon was missing. I tried to find it, but to no avail..however, upon finger insertion even more water came out. It's been over 24 hours, and I cant' find it. Did it fall out or does the leaking water suggest it may still be in.


I'm so embarassed to go to the ER or doctor, especially since I don't know. Please advise..ASAP.

Thanks,
Chickie

OMG, you have to go to the doc!!! I did the same thing, except i had a little fun with the husband, i was almost done, but still used one and forgot it was there!!!! Needless to say, it went up insdie me!!!! I was freaking out, i went to the OB and told her the story, i felt like a complete ass!!! She took it out and said i was lucky, b/c you can get toxic shock syndrome and get really sick, like in the hospital. She gave me oral meds just in case!!! I know it is embarrassing better to be safe then sorry!!! It only takes a minute, i dont think it could have fallen out, but who knows, i would def go!!! Good luck

Unless you weren't wearing any swimbottom/undwear etc, I doubt it could have fallen out without you noticing it lying losing in your swim bottoms at the end of the day
