"Want me to check your strings?" Is our code now. Tee hee

Has anyone's partner been able to feel the strings?

Yes. I have a few friends say their partner can feel it. Also had a friend have hers fall out and that is why they tell you to check for the string.

I've had mirena for three years. My doc checked strings 6 weeks after placement and three months after and yearly at annuals. I have never checked for them myself nor can my bf feel them. Everyone is different this is my relationship with the device. Also I have no children, my doc was happy to put it in. I have small fibroids and Migraines and cannot take the pill because of the estrogen and the combo pills make Migraine suffers more prone to strokes. So it was an iud or the mini pill. My. Preference is to go without however the fibroids make that impossible right now.
