A member asked:
I had the mirena (levonorgestrel) coil inserted last friday and tonight i can see the threads hanging out! is this normal?

Not normal: The IUD string should be coming out of the cervix not out of the vagina. IF you can see the string then they were not cut short enough or the IUD is coming out. Do not have sex or rely on it for birth control. See your Obgyn tomorrow to have it checked out.
