Hi, I've had the copper coil for about 3 months now. Sometimes I can feel the strings and sometimes I can't. Also I felt the coil move position before and then return back. However, this time I feel the coil is very low and I think I can feel it as soon as I put my fingers in to check, I can feel the long part of the coil outside the wall of my vagina. My doctors is closed, so will have to wait till tomorrow to ring. Just looking for some information and reassurance until then. Thank you.

All I can say is just wait till the doctors and they will see if they can get a new one fitted as it could be too small maybe? People’s bodies are different sizes and I thinkkk the uterus expands when you are due your period :)) it’ll be fine

You’re visiting a doctor and will be checked! Remember you are always safe
