Ive got quite a bit of a problem I will try and explain as best as I can to see if anyone knows what I'm talking about... here goes...
I have used tamponds for the last 3 years, day and night without a problem, but yesterday morning I woke up with the tampond hurting me so I cleaned myself up and put in a fresh one and headed off to work, however at about 10:30ish I still felt uncomfortable with it so decided to remove it and what a releif... so I walked around with tissue for the rest of the day how horrible :(
Got home to find that my private area was slightly inflamed and red also its itchy and painful but only by the entrance of the vagina and the surrounding area...
Last night I struggled to sleep and today its worse its hard to stand and sit as its very painful and uncomfortable, even walking is horrible...
Please help I don't know whats wrong???

I had similar symptoms to yours (though less severe by the sound of it) and after undergoing various tests, it turned out that the pill I was on (Dianette) was suppressing my oestrogen. The low oestrogen levels in my body were causing the symptoms. Are you on the pill?
Hi very occassionally i have a similar problem.
Bit graphic coming up, so dont read if you dont want to!
My flow is a little irregular during my period, so sometimes, when i put in a tampon, there is not enough flow to fully lubricate when its in, which means the tampon basically chafes inside. Very uncomfortable.
When this happens, i take it out- you can normally tell if this is what happened, as when you take the tampon out, it resists a bit, and comes out slightly fluffy, and pretty clean.
Then once it is out, i use a pad for a short while, till the flow picks up again and the discomfort has gone.
If that is what happened, and you left it in too long, it could have caused an infection where the chafing occured.
Hopefully you will have some answers from your gp by now..
