Is It Dangerous To Keep A Tampon And Applicator Inside For Hours?
It was my first time using a tampon and I used it with the applicator. I thought I did everything right but I did not notice that half of te applicator was inside me, that I only took ouside one piece (they are two pieces). I spend hours with the tampon and the applicator inside me without knowing. Is that dangerous? I remove it immediately as I notice.

Hi,
There's nothing to worry about it, it's not dangerous to use tampons, you can use it without any fear. Maybe you are using it for the first time so you are a bit nervous or worried.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Naira Jahangir, OB and GYN Specialist
