Copper IUD coil

I can’t seem to find my copper coil and I’ve been checking daily for about a week now. I can’t go to see my nurse because of all this vivid 19. I’ve been trying to not freak out but it’s always at the back of my mind. Any help on what u should do?

Call your doctor see what they suggest. In the meantime maybe use a condom incase the coil has dislodged. But you should get this checked

U can call your doctor, this covid-19 does not stop u from asking questions and they may want you to take pre cautions, it will also stop u from worrying so call them

If you cannot feel the coil threads and you usually can, then you should use condoms until you can have the coil assessed. The threads are often bound up in the mucus at the cervix.

Not what you're looking for?
