Sorry, but I have to disagree. Unfortunately the body doesn't always get rid of everything. My mum went to the gyno because she started getting a weird smell from 'down there' that was getting worse from day to day. Turns out one of her tampons had broken and some 'bits' where left behind...(they discovered this two weeks after her period ) Her doctor said she was very lucky they discovered it, because she was starting to get blood poisoning.... So I personally would get it checked out. Rather to be safe than sorry.
