Very funny and well done. Would you consider re-editing w/the music only as intro and out-tro? It’s a tad distracting from the witty dialogue and production. You should win and award for this! If nothing else, you’ll get a ton of PR.

Thank you for the laughs!
Shit we need more laughs these days.
So funny… and informative!
LOVE IT!
What an excellent video! Thanks for making this!
I do think that maybe a re-edit without the music might be good, because the music overpowers your voice.
Again, great job!
Thanks for the feedback about the sound levels. I’ll fix that puppy tonight after clinic. Dang. Now I can just see my Best Director of a Feminine Hygiene Movie-Product Oscar circling the drain…

Hopefully the latest version is better!
Your video, with its over-sized props, made me feel as if I was watching an episode of Good Eats. Very creative of you.
I eagerly anticipate what you will come up with for your follow-up film, The Gurley Stages of Breast Regression. : )

I couldnt stop laughing. I just came home from the doctor and never had this happen to me before. i thought i had a disease….it was hidden for over 20 days…. yuk never knew except for the well…… you know. I was crying to my doctor because I thought i was dying!!! Thanks for the laugh during this embarassing situation….
Doc, I am a nursing student at Villanova, and I just sent this video to my professor, for when we discuss womens health teaching!
FANTASTIC job!
OMG…hilarious and yet quite practical, too! Fortunately I’ve never had occasion to “lose” a tampon, but I can understand how that’s possible. And really, this information could very well save some ladies out there some of that embarrassment you describe about taking this problem to the doctor’s office. Thanks for the laugh!
What a great way to give important medical info! I always enjoy a humorous approach, and it makes something potentially embarassing funny so people are more apt to listen and learn.
Thanks for the fun and the info. Hope I never need it though. . .

Seriously hilarious – yet also very informative!
Can’t say this has ever happened to me… and for the past few years, I’ve used a reusable menstrual cup (Diva Cup) which I’m pretty sure is TOTALLY impossibe to lose in one’s vagina!
Thanks for this video; I’ll be sharing it will friends!
Dr. Gurley I just want to thank you for making me laugh so much about such embarrassing situation… I had this happen to me TWICE already and I was so worried this time it was two days and I hadn’t even noticed I had it in there until I felt it in the shower >.<
The best thing to do also is to use the smallest tampon possible and use pads while you’re home…
Anyway, thank you again Dr. Gurley you’re the best!!! it’s so nice to see a funny Doctor nowadays hehhe=]
This helped me sooooooooooo………………..much!! I had been having this foul foul smell and I didn’t know what the hell was going on!! I am so grateful for this informative and hilarious video! This morning I went to the bathroom and low and behold it just came out!!! I didn’t even know i had lost the damn thing until I went to the bathroom and well let’s just say I found the damn thing!! And yes Dr. Gurley it was all on contact…Amazingly! I’m totally embarrassed, and shocked!!! I feel better knowing this thing is out and that it was the culprit to my stink! lol I’m gonna monitor myself for a couple days and see what happens. And also watch out for the Bad signs for a immediate visit to the doc! Thanks Dr. Gurley!!!
Yahoo for menopause so this doesn’t happen any more! In our early days together, my husband couldn’t understand how it could happen. Until he realized I could lose anything anywhere! Funny thing about the stink. Without it, I’d never have know it was there!!!Great video.
Thanks so much for this video. Super informative, and made me feel a lot better about forgetting I’d left a tampon in!
Thank you so much for this video. It is absolutely hysterical (as well as educational)! I use menstrual cups, never a tampon, but I loved The Lost Tampon Video.
Thank you so much, you are great, if only all Doctors were like you then more women would not have such a fear.
This was helpful to me, also. After a night of drinking, I was raped at my home. I was on my period and had a tampon in. It was bad enough to be raped, but to also have a tampon shoved up inside of me just made things worse. It has been four days and I have no odor and have felt for that tampon and still haven’t found it. I know I should probably go to the doctor and just get myself checked. This video was amusing and informative and really helped to make me feel a little more calm about having to go get checked. Thank You
Dear sweetie,
I so hope you get the care you need and deserve. If your own doctor doesn’t seem like a good person to talk to (or you don’t have a personal doctor) please call a local women’s clinic or Planned Parenthood. Most women who are raped don’t report it for days, and often struggle with long-term repercussions beyond the physical. Help is out there – please at least call a Rape Hotline anonymously, if nothing else. You’re not alone.
Doc Gurley
I will contact planned parenthood. Thank You Doc Gurley.
I’m so glad you’re getting some help, and taking steps to protect yourself. Thanks for sharing the lovely pet photo – and the timely reminder that NO ONE should use a personal photo when leaving a message of a sensitive nature – here or anywhere online!
Hugs,
Doc Gurley
One last thing… I was able to get a 5 year protective order. He will never be able to hurt me again. I should have pressed charges. I am glad I found this site and thank you for advice.
Great video, awesome and honest! LMAO! ROTFL!!!! You are great, that is hysterical! PRICELESS!You are terrific!
