An update on this embarrassing tampon situation.?

Question

Well, I tried to take the advice and get the pieces out but it really, really hurts and I'm not sure just proding at my skin or what. What an embarrassing and frustrating situation. Ahh! Is there anything else I can do before tomorrow?

Answer 1

In order to retrieve a lost tampon:

1. Thoroughly wash your hands. This prevents introducing outside bacteria into the vagina. Ideally, the woman would also have short nails, and no open cuts on her fingers.

2. Remove any tampons that still have a string hanging out.

3. Bear down. Sit on the toilet. Grab a wastepaper basket or something that is about 12 inches high. Put the feet up on it. Bear down like when having a bowel movement or pushing out a baby. This can push the tampon down.

3. Then gently insert one finger inside yourself. Use a mirror at first, if there is trouble finding the opening. Most women start with the index finger, but she should use the middle if she cannot reach very far in.

4. Reach in as far as possible. A woman knows she has reached the end of the vagina when she feels her cervix. The cervix is a cartilaginous tissue that feels like the tip of the nose. A woman can push in slightly, so that her knuckle tents the tissue of the vulva a bit, without causing discomfort or damage. She can bear down at the same time.

5. Sweep. Make a circular and back and forth motions with the finger. The cevix is like an upside down bowl at the end of the tube (vagina). The vagina is like a tube around the edge. Try to sweep the space between the rim of the bowl (cervix) and the start of the tube (vagina). This is where crammed in tampons tend to get stuck. More get stuck towards the edge nearest the back.

5. Finding One. If your finger runs into a tampon, come out. Insert two fingers (ones next to each other, of course) and trap the tampon between them.

If you have any signs of infection: odor, discharge, pelvic pain, or fever, you need to see a doctor. Toxic Shock Syndrome is the most feared. More likely, a woman may get a bacterial vaginosis, which can be easily treated.

Answer 2

try sitting infront of a mirror and using a pair of tweezers. If you can't get it out within a few hours get yourself to a walk in clinic or an emergency room. Having a tampon in there for too long can cause toxic shock syndrome. If you start to feel ill at any moment, get help, call 911 if you have to.

Be safe

Lastly, CALL the company that makes the tampons make sure they know they made a cruddy product they may need to withdraw products so this happends to no one else!

Answer 3

Lay down and put your knees up and pretend you are at the doctors office, Have someone you trust that won't laugh at you and cares about you to pull the tampon out. You are not the first person this has happened too, I think you are pretty brave to post a question of this nature. After they get it all out, take a nice warm bath and rest. Don't have sex until you are sure all of it is out, it will just push it up farther.

Answer 4

If it makes you feel any better, I had to go get one taken out that I had forgotten about and put another one in on top of. When I went, my doc told me you wouldn't believe how many people come in for the same exact problem. I don't really think there is much else you can do if you can't get it out. Don't stick anything else up there for fear it will cause further irritation. How soon you going to the doctor?

Answer 5

So, let me see if I got this right........you still had at least PART of a tampon inside you and then you put ANOTHER one in there and now you can't get either of them out?

Why would you put another one in there when you didn't get the first one out? I have never heard of a tampon "ripping" off, or leaving pieces inside. Never. You are just going to have to wait to see your doctor tomorrow.

Answer 6

no dousche is unhealthy for females- i didn't see the other post but i assume pieces of cotton falls apart and gets left behind, i never had the problem but i read alot- if theres pain u might be irrating the tissue or skin so be very gentle- getting arroused will give u lubrication making it easier to move it and pull it out, and u can call ur gyne and ask what to do, u should definitely change brands (kotex works for me)

Answer 7

tampons can not 'get lost' inside u, the opening to the vagina is way too small. so either ur playin us or u havnt stuck ur middle finger up there to feel for it. tampons under go strict tests so this doesnt happen so unlikely it happend twice. ive used tampons for the past 11 years and never has this occured with me or any one else other wise the box wud have to state it.

Answer 8

I would recommend going to the doctor. They can help you with that. A doctor told me once to use a mirror to see if there is anything else in there. Sit on the toilet, prop your feet up and use a mirror to see if there is anything in there...

Just go to the doctor! If you got medical, go to the ER

Answer 9

Try sitting on the toilet and push like you have to have bowel movement. Maybe that'll help move it out. Or maybe if you're dry down there, it in the shower and rinse down there and then try and dig it out. Good Luck
