There are a few reasons why tampons may be hurting you:

  1. You're not relaxed enough during insertion.
  2. You're not inserting the tampon high enough.
  3. You're using too high an absorbency for your flow.
  4. You're allergic to something in the tampons you're using.
  5. The tampon is increasing your cramps.
  6. The tampon is expanding into your cervix.

If you continue having problems with tampons consider other options:

  • Pads (commercial, organic, or cotton).
  • Period underwear.
  • Interlabial pads.
  • Free flow.
  • Menstrual release.
  • Menstrual sponges.
  • Menstrual cups.
  • Diaphragms.
  • Softcups.

If you have inserted a tampon when not menstruating is it a cause for concern?

Yes, you don't need to insert a tampon unless you are menstruating. If you are, you're putting yourself at risk for TSS (Toxic Shock Syndrome), which, from what I have heard and seen, not very pleasant.


Can a tampon cause blood clots?

No.


Can you move your bowels if you have a tampon in?

Yes, you can make bowel movements when you're wearing a tampon.A tampon goes into your vaginal canal and your bowel movements leave your body via your anus, they are two different canals so a tampon in the vagina is unlikely to cause problems. Sometimes if a tampon is at an angle or expanded it can put a little pressure on the anus which can sometimes make bowel movements a little more difficult, but if it is a problem just remove the tampon.It is a good idea to make sure your tampon string (if using tampons with strings) are out of the way, otherwise you're going to get poop on the tampon string which is very unhygienic.


Can you lose a tampax in you?

Going swimming won't cause the tampon to get lost in your body. The vagina is a dead end, and the tampon has nowhere to go.


When you sit after applying a tampon does it hurt?

It shouldn't hurt at all when you are wearing a tampon, if it does something is wrong.If it hurts when you sit down it is likely that you have not inserted the tampon far enough, thus as you sit down the vaginal muscles push against the tampon lower down in the vaginal canal. This is common when first using tampons or if you use applicators, next time try non-applicator and push further.

Can the IUD cause abdominal tightness?

The IUD will not cause abdominal tightness. The IUD is in the uterus, which is behind the pubic bone; it is not in the abdomen.


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.
