Help!

A couple days ago I went to the bathroom.  After I finished I put in a new tampon and flushed the toilet.  Shortly after I couldn't remember if I took out the first one. The second one came out with a little blood, but I haven't had any more since.  It had been about 5 or 6 days which is a normal cycle for me.  I have searched in there a little and didn't find anything.  I have felt just fine and the second one went in with no struggle.  I don't have medical insurance so I don't want to go in if not necessary.  Does anyone know what it would feel like if there was one still in there so I know if I need to go in or not?

I agree with the other ladies, you would be able to feel it. And also, after a few days it would have an odor. So I would venture to guess you are fine.

I use Nuvaring...and my concern was it getting "lost" in there. my doc told me there is no way it can get lost.So i would think a tampon wouldnt be any different. Make sure it isnt in there you should be able to feel it.

Odds are that its not there, but if it is you would be able to feel it with a finger and id recommend checking because of the risk of TSS. good luck.
