A member asked:
I can feel my iud string after my period end is this normal..and if its feel out it will come out i should worry i been having iud copper for 3 month.

Yes: It is normal to feel the string. In fact, you should attempt to feel the string after your period. Palpating of the string assures you that the iud is still in place. Feeling the tip of the iud is abnormal and would warrant an examination by a gynecologist.
