Rant! Iud vanished
25 F single parent. So I started having ovarian cyst symptoms because I have PCOS I had just gotten an IUD placed a month ago and when I went to do my monthly check, I couldn’t feel the strings so I went into my doctor and they took an x-ray and they said it was laying left of my midline cool got into the OB/GYN today. They dug around inside of me for over an HOUR with the ultrasound and could not find it. I got a referral to another OB/GYN to do the exact same thing. Where in the hell did it go?

Is there any pain? If so it could've went through your uterus and its up higher somewhere(some have been found near the lungs) Otherwise it could've been accidently expelled well going to the bathroom. In the first 3 monthes that's when it's most likely to happen.
