This is a pretty dumb question but whatever.. I'm a college student, and I think I may have a tampon stuck inside of me. I'm not entirely sure, but one morning after a little too much partying I woke up and thought, "Oh my goodness, I still have my tampon in!" and ran to the bathroom, and the string wasn't there. So i checked, I felt around for it and I couldn't seem to find it. I could have very easily taken it out sometime during the night and I just don't remember. My friend said knowing me, I probably took it out. But I really honeslty do not remember, and I remember most of the night. Is it possible to be inside of me and I just can't find it? I've checked multiple times and taken quite some time every time I looked. Do you think I'm just panicked over nothing and I did in fact take it out? It's been a day or so.. what are the chances that it in fact still is inside of me and what should I do? I'm mainly concerned with TSS.. I looked up the symptoms, and I don't seem to have any except those that I always get when I have a period.

if you develop a fever, run to the ER.
Otherwise, I bet you took it out.
To be sure, you could go see your GP or nurse practitioner and have them have a look (get a PAP too if it's been more than a year).
If you want to check yourself, one more time :-) crouch down and squat to do your search. This pushes down everything and you are more likely to feel it if it is indeed in there. (women monitoring their cervix {for fertility}will use this position because the cervix can be felt more easily)
good luck!
