Eli5: How can an IUD get lost in the body?

674 viewsBiologyOther

Just heard (ok it was tiktok) two stories about birth control implants getting lost in the body. One was a Mirena Coil and one an arm implant. Both lost in the body and they couldn’t be found at the doctor’s. The nurses in the story were not too concerned and just said they’re now somewhere in the abdominal cavity. How can an object randomly travel in the body and why is it not a medical concern?

My friend who is very short had hers fucked through her uterus into her body, and it required surgery to extract. The best part was her sister airing that to Facebook but that’s another story.
