A member asked:

I had a d&c procedure yesterday for retained products followed up with an iud insertion after my abortion a month ago andi was wondering how soon can i (externally only) use a vibrator? will that be too much on my cervix/uterus?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

External: no harm, will not cause problems. No penetration, as the relatively open cervix, may allow infection.

I had an IUD insertion weeks ago. I had my period two days ago and checked for the thread but couldnt feel them. Should I be worried or have these formed part of my vaginal fold or tissue?The threads were very short so did they coil into my cervix?

HI, my doctor was unable to insert an IUD because I have a high slightly tilted cervix. She said it didn't drop when I went through puberty. Does this mean I won't be able to get pregnant?
