I noticed the string of my Intrauterine contraceptive device (IUD) just fell off, but the IUD didn't come out with it. I have had the IUD for 5 to 6 years, am currently on my period, and had sex with my partner yesterday. What should I do next to verify the IUD's position and what are the potential procedures if it needs to be removed?

I think I passed a decidual cast during my menstrual period. I am on birth control pills and haven't missed any. I am 21 years old and haven't had sex in over three months. I experienced strong cramps and passed a pear-shaped tissue. Should I still see my OB/GYN?

If there is no white discharge from Virginia, is it a sign of pregnancy? I haven't used any contraceptives, my last period began on August 16, I'm not using any medications, I'm 27 years old, and I have PCOS. I took a pregnancy test that showed positive, and I'm not ready for pregnancy. What are my options for abortion in Georgia?

I got fisted 24 hours ago and have had very light bleeding on and off since. I am experiencing bruising-like pain in my labia and vaginal opening. The bleeding is light, mainly noticeable when I urinate. I am wearing an IUD (Minera). What should I do about the bleeding and pain, and how long should it take for the bleeding to stop before I should worry?
