Tampon Problem
Posted: 06-07-05 00:35am

I think half of my tampon broke while I was taking it out. I dont know if thres a small peice in there or not. It was a small one, will it come out by itself?

If some of it did break off while taking it out i'd try to get the rest of it out right away. If you can't get it out yourself, go to the doctor just to make sure. You dont want it rotting away in there and cause an infection.

Anything is possible, but its unlikely that it happened. But if your positive it happened get it checked out.

Going to the gyno isn't that bad and you dont have to have sex to go. Just make sure you find a gyno that your comfortable with.

You Should Go to Your Dr.

If there is a piece stuck in there it'll cause infection. You should go to your Dr. Asap and get it removed.
