Best Answer

The dark red discharge may be blood left behind by the tampon which is now being allowed to flush out of your vagina. If you're taking antibiotics you should be fine, although you are at risk of developing a yeast infection when taking antibiotics which may effect discharge. If concerned then see your doctor again, it's a good idea to do this after the antibiotics too to ensure everything is okay.

Toxic shock syndrome is a very dangerous condition caused by extended tampon insertion. If you have already seen your doctor, removed the tampon and started antibiotics, you should be ok. The discharge is not normal, but not unexpected. But if you get a fever, contact your doctor right away.

What does it mean when you discharge yellow?

Normal discharge varies for each woman. Generally, slightly yellow, white, and clear discharge is normal. The color and consistency of discharge can change depending on where a woman is in her cycle. However, if yellow discharge is abnormal for you, it could be a sign of infection. Bacterial vaginosis is most commonly associated with a yellow or green colored discharge and can also cause some itching around the vaginal area. It is important to make an appointment with your doctor to be properly diagnosed, as some infections require antibiotics.
