Took in total about 4 weeks for me! Went to docs, no strings got a scan appointment for 2 weeks later which showed coil still in place, called my local family planning clinic (who were recomended by the doctor as being the "experts" at stringless coils) they got me in about a week later and removed the coil

when u want a child 5 months of waiting to even ttc seems like forever!!! thanks though, its good to get a rough idea of how long it may take

I would guess it depends on your area and HCT. I had the same just over a year ago and I think it must've been around 5 months from nurse trying to remove to gp trying, to scan, to gynae, to theatre...so worth it though.
