What happens if you use a tampon after cyst removal?

I would be very careful to make sure that you remove it often. In a normal time a tampon, if worn too long, can cause a bacterial infection that can be deadly. Ask your doctor about this.


What happens if i use a tampon before my period starts?

Not a good idea. Tampons can cause a bacterial infection called toxic shock. It can kill you. Even on your period you need to be careful of wearing a tampon too long.


Is it possible to put a tampon too far in?

No, it's not possible to push a tampon in too far.The vagina is only a few inches in length and at the top of the vaginal canal is the cervix which will prevent the tampon from going any further. A tampon thus can go no further than your vaginal canal as there's nowhere else for it to go, the vaginal canal is essentially a dead end. You can only push the tampon in so far with your finger or an applicator too as it won't reach any further.


What should you do if you have the urge to pee all the time possibly because you left a tampon in for too long?

A feeling of needing to urinate more frequently has nothing to do with leaving a tampon in your vagina - leaving a tampon in too long can cause vaginal infections, but not urethral infections. If you suspect that you have left a tampon in feel around the vaginal canal to check, if still unsure you need to see your doctor for them to check. If you suspect you have a urinary tract infection (which would explain your needing to urinate more frequently) then you need to see your doctor for this too.


Can a tampon fall out in the water?

It's VERY unlikely that a tampon would fall out - tampons are held in place by the vaginal muscles, the vaginal walls also close around the tampon which help keep it in place - if a tampon did fall out of your vagina when using the bathroom you should see your doctor as there is a problem with vaginal muscle tone. If a tampon was to fall out then you would unfortunately have to scoop it out to throw it in the bin.


Can you see a picture of tampon?

Yes, you can see a picture of a tampon by googling for an image of tampons. You can also see a picture of a tampon on the side of a tampon box. If you were to buy tampons you would be able to see a tampon first-hand too!


How often should you change a Playtex tampon?

It is recommended to change tampons every 3-4 hours but To avoid toxic shock syndrome (TSS), do not keep the same tampon in for more than 8 hours. If you keep your tampon longer, you can have toxic shock. Discover more in recommended related link below.


What to do if having to go to the bathroom constantly and possibly because of a tampon left in for too long?

See your doctor. Don't fool around with this problem.


What you should do if you think you left a tampon in for too long and now always have sudden urge to go to the bathroom?

If you think that you left a tampon in then first thing is to check for that tampon, if you struggle to reach into your vagina then get into a squatting position and push down. Remove the tampon straight away and don't use tampons for the rest of that cycle to give your vagina a chance to clean itself. If you have constant urge to urinate and/or you experience pain when you urinate you may have a urinary tract infection (UTI), a tampon left too long shouldn't cause this but if you think you may have a UTI or you notice any symptoms of vaginal infection you should see a doctor.


How do you use a tamopn?

To use a tampon you simply insert a fresh tampon into your vagina following the instructions given on the box. You have to remember to follow precautions too such as changing every 4-6 hours, no tampon use when not menstruating, always use lowest absorbency, no tampon use overnight, and alternate with pads often. As long as you're relaxed and use tampons correctly insertion is easy.


Is pain normal after retrieving a stuck tampon?

Whether it's normal to feel pain after retrieving a 'stuck' tampon depends on what you mean by it being 'stuck', what you did to retrieve it, and how long afterwards it continues to hurt. If the tampon was 'stuck' because it was too dry then it would have caused vaginal tearing and irritation so would hurt. If the tampon was 'stuck' because you were tense and you had to force it out that would hurt too. If you're experiencing pain days or weeks after removal then you may be looking at an infection.


Lost a tampon which now out but think may have an infection?

Go see a doctor! SOONEST! Tampons in too long can cause TSS, which can be VERY BAD.
