Okay, so saturday was the second day of my
period, and I put a tampon in sometime
that afternoon. That night, I got drunk,
and I can't remember if I took it out or
not. I ended up having sex, totally
forgetting about whether the tampon was in
me or not. Two days later, i'm sore, but
I don't know if that's from having sex two
nights in a row on my period, or if maybe
the tampon is still in me. Although it
sounds gross, I stuck the end of a
toothbrush up me, and didn't feel
anything...Which makes me think that it
got lodged wayy up there, or that maybe I
drunkenly took it out. Wouldn't I have
felt the tampon when he entered me,
though? Because the sex didn't hurt at
all. And I figured he would have noticed
a tampon string if I did had one in, and
he never said anything. I'm feeling kind
of light-headed, and i'm honestly scared
i'm gonna get tss. Please help! Feedback
is needed!

Well, it's quite likely that you drunkenly
took it out and don't remember. But, if
you are concerned i'd got to the doctor.
Good luck!

I would guess you removed it.
Why a toothbrush? Fingers are much better
at detecting things out of place.
If you can put you finger inside and not
feel the tampon then it's surely out. The
vagina isn't endless and a tampon can not
pass through the cervix so it can not get
lost anywhere.
Always becareful of leaving tampons in as
they can lead to toxic shock syndrome -
tells you about it on the leaflet that
comes with them in the box.
I once thought I had removed a tampon but
hadn't (don't know what I was thinking?)
and having been to the bathrom tried to
put a new one in and I couldn't get it in.
I panicked for about 10 minutes, before I
fianlly worked out what I did. So, if you
had sex and have used tampons since i'd be
sure it's out.
Always remember to use condoms even if you
are on your period as they protect against
infections.

Okay, so if i've used my finger and not
felt anything, there's no way it could
still be up there? That's a comforting
thought... I thought it could have gotten
lodged up me, and that I just wouldn't be
able to feel it. I guess I did drunkenly
take it out, even though I really don't
remember doing such a thing. Thanks,
y'all, for your help.
