I can't find a tampon either but have similar symptoms, now I'm freaking out. I'm overseas and really don't want to go to a doctor where I am for this!

I have an issue where my period has ended, but there is an unusual-smelling pink spotting that I keep finding when I wipe, but does not show up on my underwear like period blood would. I do NOT use tampons and have not used one for 5 years, I use a menstrual cup which is not in right now (and those can't leave fragments). I'm out of my home country so I can't afford to go to the doctor until my healthcare coverage is applicable again when I get home in 10 days, so if anyone has advice for those of us who can't attribute this to tampons, I would be very grateful.

Thank God for this post, I didn't understand the funky smelling blood when my period was supposed to be over so I popped a squat and found the nasty culprit...a stuck tampon

I was having the same issue, spotting between my periods. So i started using my small menstrual cup (Ive got two of them, one smaller and one larger. And i have used them for over 5 years now. Some days ago I could not find my small cup in my toiletry bag so i decided to put the larger one in. The spotting got worse over the days (more like pink to brown liquid, not real blood) and with a foul smell. After reading this tread I went to the bathroom to check.... Would it be possible that my 'lost' small cup is inside me for days and is giving me a foul smell? YES! It was there! Im still shocked!!

Omg .... I literally cant believe.. I had the same light spotting at the end of my period, and well the smell was scary.... I thought i Knew when i switched tampons so i was sure its impossible i have left one in there... But after reading this forum i decided to check things out and i started freaking out when i felt a tampon inside. After like the 3rd try i managed to get it out, but im still shaken and feel superashamed.... Cant understand when i could have forgotten it. This really freaks me out. Thank god for this forum ... Best health to you ladies!!
