A member asked:

My body doesn't seem to want to keep a tampon in what does this mean ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Tampon rejection?: Does that mean the tampon won't go in, as if there is something in the way? Does that mean the tampon goes in, but mysteriously comes back out on its own? A primary care doctor or an ob-gyn doctor can look to see what is actually happening.
