Best Answer

As long as you can feel at least one string, there is no cause for concern, and no need for an exam with your health care provider. The purpose of checking the strings is to make sure the IUD is present an in place. The apparent disappearance of one string is not an indication of a missing or displaced IUD if the other one is present. The most likely reason for feeling only one string is that the other is so close it can't be perceived as separate.

Where do IUD strings go if they get lost?

Some men feel them during intercourse, that is one way - the other is to insert your finger and use a sweeping motion to feel for the string. If you can't feel them, bare down (as if you were having a bowel movement). Never try pulling on them, you could end up with a perforated cervix or uterus. If all else fails go in to see your MD or midwife, they can tell you very quickly if the IUD is in place, it is rare but the IUD occasionally may slip out un-noticed, so if the strings are not where you remember feeling them, see your doctor.


Can the copper coil stop working after 5 years?

Yes, the copper IUD can stop working after 5 years if it is one of the brands that only lasts for 5 years. If you're unsure which type of IUD you've got (e.g. whether or not it is the 5 year copper IUD) you may want to consider getting a new IUD, next time maybe consider a 10 year IUD.


How do you convert char to String in java?

A String is nothing but a bunch of characters one after the other whereas a character has a size of only '1' So converting a string into a char is not possible. what you can do is form a character based on only one element from the string. Ex: String name = "Rocky"; char xyz = name.charAt(0); now the char xyz will have one character from the String.

Can your IUD come out?

If your partner feels the IUD strings, there is no cause for concern. if your partner feels part of the plastic of the IUD, the IUD is being expelled and you are at risk for pregnancy. Consider using emergency contraception if you've had sex in the last five days, and contact your health care provider for an immediate appointment. Use a backup method of birth control until you get checked.
