not enough field of view on transvaginal scan
The ultrasound procedure to image the uterus is called a pelvic ultrasound or transvaginal ultrasound, depending on the method used. A pelvic ultrasound typically involves placing a transducer on the abdomen, while a transvaginal ultrasound involves inserting a specialized transducer into the vagina for a closer view. Both methods help assess the uterus's structure, detect abnormalities, and evaluate conditions such as fibroids or cysts.

A transvaginal ultrasound would not see a lost tampon. Tampons can't get lost in the pelvis. A speculum exam would tell you whether there was a tampon in your vagina.
