So I was supposed to get my period last week which would have had my period long gone before surgery tomorrow. But OF COURSE it decides to come today. Is it ok/should I use a tampon or how will this be handled come tomorrow? Grrrrrrrrrrrrr...........Thanks!

I do not have experience with this specifically. However, a friend of mine had surgery to remove some kidney stones several years ago and she had a tampon in when she went into surgery, but they took it out while she was in surgery. I would just ask when you get there when they prep you for your surgery - they'll know more than I do. Good luck ☺️

Oh yikes!!! I'm guessing they may have done that due to the area they were dealing with. I guess I'll just ask when I get there. So mad!!! LOL

Let the Dr know. Good thing i got my the next day after mine surgery lol

Mine started the day of surgery. Joy. They just gave me a pad and pressed it to the area. They are so used to dealing with this kind of thing, they don't even care.

I hate auto correct! But u know what i meant .lol

Thanks!!

I do not have experience with this but someone else on here responded on another thread that they have mesh panties for the maternity patients and they give you those and a pad??
