What Can I Do To Remove The Condom That Slipped Off Inside Of Me?

My boyfriend and I had sex last night. Apparently the condom slipped off while inside of me and we both tried to feel around for it and it's nowhere to be found. My question(s) are: What can I do at home to find it and remove it? What are the chances of infections, ( we are both negative for STDs)? Is there anyway to avoid going to the doctor?

Hi there.
Albeit not very common, this can happen.
I would advise you to go across to the gynecologist /&/or get a vaginal ultrasound done to help ascertain if it is indeed lodged higher up.
It can lead to a foreign body reaction & serious Pelvic inflammatory disease if left alone. So Yes, please do visit a gynecologist at the earliest.
Home remedies are best avoidable as this can lead to further damage, trauma & even infection.
You may want to consider the possibility it may have slipped off outside & check the sheets et al. My compliments on practicing safe sex & do continue to do so.
Good Luck & Godspeed!
