Question
I slept with a tampon in and when I woke up it was gone. I couldnt get it out and I know it didnt fall out. What do I do and what will it do?

If you insert your finger and cannot feel it, chances are good, it is not there. Tampons cannot go anywhere, and if there is one inside your vagina, it needs to be removed by a doctor, or you might smell bad and get an infection.
