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

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.

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 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...

There really should be a "So What" button here, cuz that's what I would've pressed for this one. At least a tampon is normal. You're a woman and you menstruate, whoop de do. You should read the stories I've read in mags about all the women who ********** with vegetables, only to have the vegetable break inside her and have to go to the hospital to get it removed. Now THERE'S an awkward conversation with the doctors.

A friend of mine told me his ex used a banana to ********** and her muscles popped it inside of her.

I once started pulling a tampon out only for the string to break. I managed to get it out myself. Took some time though!

OMG, people...this is definitely legit. I worked in the ER and people come in often for this reason. When women start to panic about it being stuck, their muscles tense up. For some women, it can seem impossible to relax and get it out. This is especially true if your period is light and there's no lubrication. TSS is a serious issue, and op did the right thing by going to the hospital, embarrassing or not, FYL.

Jesus how far up there did you shove it? Vaginas are normally only 4 inches deep, 6 inches if you're horny. You're telling me you couldn't squat down and reach far enough to get it? Or maybe you're one of those girls who's squeamish about her own bodily fluids, and would rather have a doctor get it for you than attempt to get it yourself, and get blood on your fingers. YDI, one way or another.
