significant pain or discomfort. Women who’ve written accounts of their own IUD perforations usually say that the pain is incapacitating. Also, do a self-check on your strings. If you can’t find them, it could indicate that your IUD isn’t in place.
You should check to make certain your IUD is still in place. More than likely, your IUD has been expelled and you are actually pregnant.
I suggest you take a pregnancy test and make an appointment for your doctor to do a vaginal exam to see if your IUD is still properly placed.
