Most of the time, women who think they've lost a tampon have not. If you aren't sure, squat down and put one finger in your vagina as you bear down. You'll feel the cervix, with a texture like your nose, at the end of your vagina. Feel around the outside of the cervix (like drawing a circle with your finger around your nose). Do you feel a tampon? if not, there's probably not one there. If you're still not convinced, see your health care provider or your local family planning agency. They can reassure you in a matter of minutes.

Hopefully you would remember when you last used a tampon and if you removed it or not, you can also check the bin to see if the last tampon is still wrapped-up on top. If unsure then you simply insert fingers vaginally to feel for the tampon, if you can feel it then you can remove it. If you struggle to reach the whole of your vaginal canal then try squatting and pushing down.

Would a transvaginal ultrasound see a lost tampon?

A transvaginal ultrasound would not see a lost tampon. Tampons can't get lost in the pelvis. A speculum exam would tell you whether there was a tampon in your vagina.


What if the doctor did not find the lost tampon inside of you?

If the emergency room doctor did an effective speculum exam, then the doctor w2ould not be able to miss a tampon in your vagina. There is nowhere else a tampon can go; the vagina is a dead end. But removal of a lost tampon is not a reason for an emergency room visit. Next time, see your regular health care provider or your local family planning agency. They are better able to provide this kind of care. Routine GYN care is not what emergency rooms are for, and not their specialty.

Would I be able to feel if I had a tampon stuck inside me?

Yes, you would be able to feel if there was a tampon still within your vagina. If you suspect you may still have a tampon in place clean your hands and insert fingers vaginally to feel around the vaginal canal to check - your vaginal canal isn't that long so you should be able to reach easily, but if you do struggle try to squat and push down as if you were passing a bowel movement. If you can't tell if there is a tampon there then you should tell someone to ask for help or see your doctor.


If you lose a tampon inside of you will you still bleed?

It is not possible to completely "lose" a tampon inside yourself.Your vagina can only go so deep, then there is a wall with a very small opening that only stretches when it's time to give birth called the cervix. This wall actually protects your body from that very accident, and from any other foreign bodies entering your innards that shouldn't be there.However, the string of a tampon can break from the tampon, thus making you believe that it can be lost inside of you completely. Never fear, though, it can be retrieved. If you are unable to get it yourself, you must see your OB/GYN or the ER immediately because leaving it inside for too long can cause a bacterial growth or TSS (Toxic Shock Syndrome). It might be embarrassing, but it's imperative. They will be able to remove it.
