Could peeing with a tampon in be bad for you?

Answer 1

No, a tampon goes into the vagina so it has no effect on your urethra or urination. If a woman uses tampons with strings she should move the string out of the way to avoid the string getting wet, this could increase risk of infection by giving bacteria and yeast a warm moist place to multiply.

Answer 2

Yes, it's safe to pee while wearing a tampon - a tampon goes into the vagina, where as urine comes out via the urethra. If your tampon has a string then it would need to be moved out of the way to avoid it getting wet.

Answer 3

Yes, of course it's okay to urinate while you're wearing a tampon.

The tampon goes into the vagina, whereas you urinate from your urethra, these are two different holes so one doesn't effect the other. It's a good idea if using tampons with a string to move the string out of the way so that it doesn't get wet when you urinate, as it can be uncomfortable and unhygienic to have a tampon string wet with urine. It is best to try to time urination and changing tampons at the same time, not because you have to change tampons when you urinate but just because it's a little more convenient and saves you making more bathroom trips.

Answer 4

Nothing happens when you urinate while wearing a tampon.

Tampons are inserted into the vaginal canal, whereas urine comes out via the urethra, although the opening to the holes are both next to each other in the vestibule of the vulva they are still separate holes so urine doesn't get to the tampon. If using tampons with strings then the string can get wet, move the string out of the way and pat dry if it does get wet to avoid discomfort and risk of infection.

Answer 5

Not much, they use different holes. Might be a good opportunity to replace the tampon anyhow.

Answer 6

Yes it's absolutely okay to pee with a tampon in because you don't pee out of your vagina hole, there's a little hole where your pee comes out that's near your vagina hole.
