  • I accidentally forgot one was in and put another one in when I was like 13, I noticed immediately (the first tampon hit my cervix, which is a pretty obvious sign, so it ended up fine. It's only happened that one time.

    If you do have times where you're not sure if you put a tampon in, it's easy to check. Usually, the little string on the end of the tampon will hang out. If the tampon got repositioned or put in incorrectly so that it doesn't, though, you can still get it out. The human vagina is only about 3 inches long when unaroused and lengthens to about 4 inches when aroused. If you think you've put a tampon in but there's no string, put your fingers in your vagina and feel for it (I know, it's kind of gross, but fingers are totally washable). If you can touch your cervix and don't find anything, there's no tampon in there.
