If you’ve tried the squat, the bear-down, and a few calm, careful finger sweeps for ten minutes and still can’t find it, it’s time to make a call. Your gynecologist, your primary care doctor, or even a walk-in clinic has seen this a thousand times. They will not laugh.
Seriously, they have retrieved lost sex toys, forgotten sponges, and even a small avocado pit (yes, really, from a patient who got a little too creative). A tampon is nothing for them. A quick speculum exam and they will have it out in thirty seconds.
