Basically I had the coil fitted two weeks ago Today I felt a strange feeling like a tampon string but thought nothing of it as I ve been bleeding heavily and thought maybe a little blood clot from the period was coming out. So in the last half hour it has started to come out more one string is hanging out my vagina completely about 1cm.. And the other to the left is on its way out. I ve got tummy pain and pain lower down on the right and left side of my tummy . I m a bit scared please help. I m new to this
Hello, Thanks for trusting us with your health concern. In the current scenario, I would ask you to seek help immediately from your health care provider. Your symptoms are suggestive of a possible displacement of the IUD. You need hemo-stabilization, medications to control the bleeding, identification of the location of the IUD through a sonogram or MRI and plan further management. Do not exert or try to pull on the strings. Take bed rest preferably with foot end elevation while you seek medical attention. Take plenty of liquids. Hope this helps.
