How to Tell If Tampon Still In Posted: 08-02-07 14:22pm
not sure but i think i have left a tampon
in 3 days ago, the string was really short
and i think its gone up inside i couldnt
remember the next day if i did put one in
or not as i was abit drunk!, couldnt find
the string the next day so i presumed i
didnt, but i have a bit of tummy ache and
it just feels odd to me down there inside,
without being to graphic i cannot find
anything, is there any way else left to
check, i dont want to go drs and waste
there time if there is nothing there!

Well, you should be able to reach in and
feel it. Can you feel all the way to your
cervix? (that is the end and it pokes into
your vagina a little) if you can, then
there is no way there is a tampon in
there.... they can't go past your cervix.
If you can't feel that far, can you peek
with a mirror? If you try these and still
think it might be up there, go to a doc.
But I never lost one... I can always reach
in and feel them.
Good luck

Oy. That sucks.
Crouch down, like spread your legs and
crouch down to the floor. Poke around in
there, you should be able to feel it if
it's there.

Yep, crouch down, on the bathroom floor,
and push! Yes, you can push... and while
pushing, feel inside for your cervix.

Yeah, if you think it's in there you
should go to a doc because it can be
dangerous-- for tss and infections...
