i have been on the internet for an hour or so reading about "lost tampons." i have not had my period for two weeks, but there is one tampon that i still do not remember taking out. i am on the pill and i have started spotting, which is unusual for me. i dont have the odor or pelvic pain, but the anxiety is killing me. i have checked around and have not felt anything. should i bother with going to a doctor or just calm down?
they say.. you can best find a lost tampon if you squat down and then search around. i highly doubt it's in there. you'd have the odor at least. but, if your that anxious, see the dr. it'll give you piece of mind.. good luck
I agree. It would really smell down there if it's been 2 weeks. But it technically can't get "lost." There is no where for it to go. Believe me I use things called Sea Pearls, they are sea sponge tampons, natural and reuseable. You can also have sex with them in. Although it bothers my husband as he says he can feel it. No one else ever complained about it but he's much larger than them. Anyway, when I would have sex with it in, it would, obviously, be pushed WAAAAYYYYY up in there almost lodged into the corner where a fallopian tube comes in to my uterus. It would take some pulling as my fingers where almost too short to get it but it wouldn't go anywhere. It was still in there, I just had to find it. If you've squated down and fished around in there and there is no odor I highly doubt it's in there. You just forgot you took it out.
