A member asked:
I have the mirena (levonorgestrel) iud. i have no period, but i have really painful cramps. should i be concerned? also, can't feel strings sometimes.

Lost & Found: If your iud string cannot be located, it is important to see a md to be sure it is in place and not extruded elsewhere. The cramping may be a clue that the iud has gone "missing in action.".
