A member asked:
Gyn checked me for infection before iud placement & all cultures negative. 4 days after iud placement intense cramps/vag pain. can feel strings. pid??

Probably the IUD: Some women have uterine cramping after IUD placement, and PID is unlikely with your negative tests for various infections (which probably included testing for STDs, the usual cause of PID). Check back with your gyn.
