A member asked:

Left a tampon in for 5 days now i'm having severe stomach pains and vomiting?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See your physician: You may have developed pelvic inflammatory disease from extended tampon use. There is a life threatening complication from having a tampon in for too long called toxic shock syndrome. You need to see your gynecologist or PCP ASAP.
