The egg will make it's way down to the womb which takes around 3 days. If it isn't fertilised by sperm, the blood womb lining (period) will be released and the egg will come out with it. The egg is microscopic so you won't see it on your tampon.

The egg matures in the ovary and is released during ovulation around day 14 of a 28-day menstrual cycle. If the egg is fertilized by sperm, it may lead to pregnancy. If not fertilized, the egg is expelled along with the uterine lining during menstruation.
