Answers:
First, a catheter is inserted in your urethra, the hole above your vaginal opening. Your period comes out of your vaginal opening.

A catheter is a tube that is inserted, it will most likely be pretty painful. But it will assist the doctors in diagnosing you.Health Question & Answer

First of all, a Foley doesn't go into the vagina, it goes through the urethra and into the bladder. It is most often used to help a person urinate while recovering from a bladder injury or infection and isn't often a permanent attachment.

I recently had one because of a bladder injury I sustained during abdominal surgery. It was uncomfortable, somewhat problematic, I had to always check my "day bag" strapped to my leg to make sure it wasn't over-full, and I was overall very happy to have it removed.Health Question & Answer

I got one when I was 12. Had a kidney infection :(. It hurts like hell! Seriously. I was screaming bloody murder. But just relax. I don't know what else to tell you. And make sure your mom or sister is there holding your hand. Good luck!Health Question & Answer
