What happens if you put a tampon in your anus?

Assuming that you are looking for a real answer.


Personal experience has shown there is no harm from rectal use of tampons if done carefully. I often get diarrhea due to sinus drainage, there are no underlying medical problems causing it; however it is rather inconvenient and I don't want to take Imodium all the time.

The concept is not that of a cork. Rather the tampon absorbs the excess moisture allowing normal stool to form. also it allows the stool to stay in longer and your body will absorb the moisture again.

Get to know your body! You have delicate tissues down there. Read up on anal intercourse for more information. If it hurts .... Stop you are doing something wrong. There are some concerns specifically to rectal tampon usage. Tampons are dry, therefore they can stick to the inside of your rectum, much the same way paper will stick to your lips or tongue. Smokers out there ever had the filter of your cigarette stick to your lip? With the case of a tampon it will absorb moisture and release from the tissue with time. If you remove the tampon and it is still dry either you didn't leave it long enough or you are using to high an absorbency. Yes this is just like the absorbency info in the box and for the same reason. Tampons can stick to the inside of the vagina as well. Also just like the box says don't go over 6 to 8 hours.

Relax those muscles and even push a bit then slowly insert. I use just a dab of KY jelly for more comfortable insertion. Leave in for at least 3 hours and no more than 8. To remove go to the bathroom as usual. You can pull the string but this may cause discomfort. Imagine a tiny rope burn there. This is particularly important if you will be using another tampon right away. If you must remove your tampon right away you can give your self an enema or insert a small ice chip and wait a moment for it to melt. This will soften it and un-stick it from the walls of the rectum. If your worried about the plumbing hold the string and throw it in the trash. Again refer to the pamphlet in the box. I have been flushing tampons for years with no ill effects.

You will notice sensation from the string. Careful placement will minimize discomfort. I often can't even tell it's there.

Paper or plastic?

Cardboard applicators are more ecologically friendly, Also they are flush-able (even guys get the runs so think stealthy). Plastic applicators are more comfortable and handle being stuck in your purse, pocket, glove box etc. much better.

All right smarty pants what do you use?

My favorite for rectal use is Playtex Gentle Glide. The flower shape of the tampon itself is very comfortable and the applicator is also very nice. I have used all sizes from light to ultra with no problems. For all around convenience the light and regular are very easy to use. The ultras require an extra moment or two for insertion and need to be worn longer to ensure they don't stick.

CVS store brand cardboard. These are cheap and work well. Cardboard particularly higher absorbency are more likely to scrape you on the way in. One caveat cardboard absorbs moisture quickly and if you are really wet inside the tampon may not come out of the applicator. If this happens just toss the whole thing and start over.

Tampax. cardboard, pearls, kompact pearls. these are the ones i don't like. something about the string is very uncomfortable and they all use it. It doesn't matter how you place the string. I think it may have to do with the small threadlike string along side the normal one. Other people have posted elsewhere on the net that they have had no problems with Tampax tampons and prefer them for rectal use.

This is just my opinion based on my own experience. I am not a doctor, but I have regularly used tampons for diarrhea control for over 10 years. having used countless boxes of them for this purpose.

Can animals get STDs-one of my family members has herpes and she left her tampon in the trash where my ferret accidentally ate it eeww. Now he has an infection on his ear-could he have herpes?

The chances that a human virus, such as the herpes virus, mutates and gets tansferred to an animal is very rare. In this case, i would say the chances your ferret contracted herpes from eating a tampon that had been used by a herpes positive woman is ridiculously low.

If you are concerned about the infection on your ferrets ear, I would take him to the vet. The cause of the infection is most likely a ferret viral infection, bacteria, mites, a rash etc...
