Q: what could cause a pulling string sensation from inside belly button down to vagina. especially when urinating but also when sitting or standing up from sitting. thank you?

: After birth, the umbilical vessels form a connection to the uterus, and movement as described can "pull" on the uterus and can be similar to the sensation described, and be accentuated when sudden standing or urinating. This is harmless and will not cause other problems.
