Hi,
It is not 100% safe to use a tampon since it can obstruct the mensural flow and stasis of mensural fluid leads to infection.
Try to use sanitary napkins for the next cycle and check your comfortability.
Urine in tampon can due to dribbling caused due to
urinary tract infection
if any recent surgery, we can think of ureterovaginal fistula.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
