Today, I put a tampon in. The string broke. I had to go to the hospital to get it out. FML

Today, my tampon string was hanging from my bathing suit. My boyfriend thought it was a thread hanging from my bikini bottom. He publicly pulled out my tampon. FML

Out of it
Today, I'm sick with a fever, and on my cycle I was too tired and forgot to change my tampon, and ended up putting another one in. I woke up to go to the bathroom and ended up pulling two out. FML

My stupidity
Today, I got my period and went clubbing. I had to change my tampon and stupidly I only brought one. When I unwrapped it, it fell on the floor. I had to wait in the womens' bathroom for 45 minutes for a random girl to give me a spare. FML

Today, I was mugged while changing my tampon. The mugger took everything, including the fresh tampon. FML

How? Why?
Today, I was faced with the inevitable horrible circumstances which lead me to put in a tampon on a moving city bus. FML

Today, I was changing my tampon in a public toilet. When I threw away the used one and opened a new one, it turned out that it had no thread on it! I took another one out. Again, defective! It was the last one I had with me, and it was the second day of my period. FML

Today, I pulled a white cloth with string on the end from my dog's mouth. I then realized I was holding my sister's used tampon. FML

Today, I was changing my tampon in a public bathroom. As I was about to put the tampon into the sanitary bin, I dropped it and it rolled under the stall next to mine. It was occupied. FML

you couldn't just use your fingers? the string shouldn't really be necessary...

Oh dear. Maybe buy a better brand next time?

The OP is probably a young girl who hasn't had her period that many times. It's frequent for the tampon to come out involuntarily when you're pooping or even when you sneeze! It's a matter of knowing what you're doing... and she didn't.

That sort of thing happened to me, only it was because i ****** up the applicator thing and the string was stuck up there too.

Pads are gross because you can feel it come out.

I'm happy I'm not the only one who thinks 56 is an idiot. I've gone thru this same thing. No need for a doc, silly!

She stated that the string broke, meaning that it was inside of her, meaning that she couldn't pull it out. Did you never learn to read or are you just incredibly stupid?

Just use your fingers next time. It's not as difficult as it sounds, no matter how "tight" you may be.
