Got my IUD removed- I could feel it

This was my second IUD. I did a string check and behold, I felt it! No numbing or anything. Doctor was able to just grab it. Honestly just shocked that I never got pregnant. Just luck I guess. Wondering where I’d be if I never did that string check haha. Only symptoms I had were cramps and spotting. My strings were kind of tangled so I had no idea about the length.

Anyway point of this post is to check your strings AND your cervix. I was able to feel the plastic there. If you feel something hard, call your doctor!!
