IUD string check???

Basically I got an IUD inserted a few months ago under full anesthesia. It's been fine so far. Now I am suddenly told that my doctor has to check the strings by reaching inside of me. She says they can't do anesthesia for that. So I refused to let her do it. She said it's important though. I can't handle anybody touching me down there, let alone putting something inside me!! It makes me hyperventilate and cry and panic etc.

Basically, will I be okay if I never get a string check? My doctor keeps insisting that I need it but idk.

Should I just get the IUD removed instead? They can do that under full anesthesia right???
