You need to reduce your tampon size according to your flow. What has happened is that you’re worn one too big for your blood flow and a bit of it has unravelled. The best option is to insert your fingers and try to remove any excess cotton. There won’t be alot left if any but best to remove it. Don’t let this put you off using tampons, just buy smaller ones for the latter half of your period. Its happened to me and many other women, so don’t worry.

Good Luck
