[quote=Anonymous]It's definitely not idiot-proof. I have a friend who couldn't feel hers for a couple of months and figured she just wasn't doing it right, and by the time the drs discovered that her IUD had perforated her uterus and swam out into her abdominal cavity, she needed surgery and, sadly, an abortion. On the other hand, I have accidentally removed my IUD while digging around for the strings. Statistically though, issues will happen in the first six week or not at all, so maybe just use a backup method until your dr does a 6-week check and don't worry too much about feeling the strings after that.[/quote]
