Woman's 'Missing' IUD Turns Up in Her Bladder
By Rachael Rettner, Senior Writer | October 20, 2017 03:32pm ET




A woman's IUD that appeared to be "missing" from her uterus turned up in an unusual place: her bladder.

The woman, a 26-year-old in Changchun, China, went to the doctor because of bladder problems, including increased frequency of urination and blood in her urine, along with pain in her abdomen, according to a report of the woman's case. The patient said she'd had these symptoms for the past five years, and previous treatments hadn't helped.
