It sounds gross, but you have to reach up in your vagina with your fingers and pull the tampon out. There really isn't another safe way to do it other than having a doctor remove it (which isn't necessary). DO NOT try to pull it out with anything other than your fingers.

If the tampon string breaks simply remove the tampon with your fingers - there is absolutely nothing gross about inserting fingers into your vagina, it's your vagina and it's not dirty.

Consider all the other things that can be inserted vaginally which don't include a string - cloth tampons, menstrual sponges, soft tampons, softcups, menstrual cups, caps, diaphragms, shields, and some sex toys for example. A string is not needed to remove things from your vagina, it just makes removal a little easier if you can just pull on a little string to remove them.

Strings are added to some types of tampons to make removal easier, but they're not essential.

If a tampon doesn't have a string then you simply reach into your vagina, with clean hands, and grab hold of the tampon itself to pull it out - sponge and soft tampons don't have strings, people manage to remove these just fine. There are lots of other things that go into your vagina without strings too, such as menstrual cups, softcups, diaphragms, and cervical caps.

Reach in and get it with your fingers, it's your body after all; just make sure to wash your hands

When a women has just changed and has to urinate right after that should she change her tampon again?

No, not neccessary. The tampon should be inside, beyond the urethra and not be affected, only the string and that should be OK for the next few hours.

What if your tampon splits inside and the other doesnt come out?

If your tampon tears - which rarely happens - then all you need to do is insert your fingers vaginally to remove the rest of the tampon. If it's just a small bit of tampon the vagina may clean it out itself, but otherwise you should go to your doctor to remove whatever is left if you can't remove it yourself.

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.

I haven't had any TSS symptoms but realized I had a tampon inside me for eleven days. Should I be worried?

Yes. Unless you are on a period you shouldn't be using a tampon and if you are you need to change it several times a day. The bacteria is what causes the TSS and it can kill you. I hope you have stopped doing this.


Can a tampon get stuck inside you on its own accord or does it have to be pushed somehow?

Tampons can't get stuck inside you. Tampons can go no further than your vaginal canal, this is because at the top of the vaginal canal is the cervix (opening to the uterus) and a tampon cannot pass through this. As long as you relax and you're using tampons correctly you can remove a tampon - if you struggle then you'd need to see your doctor for help to remove the tampon.
