Answers:
take it out, rinse and reinsert. that's what i do.Health Question & Answer

i'm sorry to say this, but that's really disgusting. you shouldn't do that, it's so bad. it should only be left in for like 6-8 hours. please don't do that again. and please go to a gyno so they can make sure you are okay.
and hell, if you can't afford a new box, use one of your socks as a pad, it would work til you could afford to get some stuff for yourself, sounds gross, but it's hell of a lot better than keeping a tampon in for 3 days. OR better option, ask other girls for pads/tampons.Health Question & Answer

Yeaaah it is.....you could actually die from it.

I hope this isn't a serious question.

If you are really that hard up for money, you can go to a machine in any public restroom and get a tampon for like 25 cents.

Or go to the health department or a free clinic or something....they probably have free ones you can have.Health Question & Answer

You could get infections. Honestly, if you can't afford to buy some and you can't find any means of obtaining them for free, you should just steal some. They're a woman's basic needs, and I think few people would frown upon a woman who can't afford to buy tampons, taking them.Health Question & Answer

yeah you may want to take that out and try to figure something else out and by the way there is no way you are on your period and wore the same tampon for three days you would have leaked and it would have became so full that it would have come on out by itself when you used the bathroomHealth Question & Answer

That is disgusting!
Book a doctors appointment and soon.
