It’s the sort of injury that will make you suspicious of sex toys for a long time. The internet has caught wind of a resurfaced story involving a young woman who was sent to the hospital after she underwent a MRI scan while having an apparently metallic butt plug inside herself.
An anonymous medical provider reported the strange incident to the Food and Drug Administration in April 2023, though it’s received renewed media attention this week. The 22-year-old woman reportedly screamed out in pain as she was pulled out of the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) machine following a scan, which then prompted her delayed admission of having had a “butt plug” inserted. Though an ambulance did take her to a hospital afterward, the patient’s ultimate fate is unknown.

I was wanded before getting into an MRI.
This article on Gizmodo links to an article from The Sun, and that has a x-ray image from…Reddit that came from Twitter. Until I see the FDA report I’m calling bullshit.
Those are two separate things - at the top is the incident from the FDA report, then they include a similar sounding one that did the rounds online, which is likely bullshit.
I’ve never heard of anyone being wanded - I’ve had a few and taken my Dad to a number and it’s all on you.
I am not going to kink shame(because plugs are hot), but you should feel pretty dumb for wearing a plug of unknown, or known, metallic content in a MAGNETIC Resonance Machine. Maybe don’t even wear one while doing anything abnormal like a medical exam; interviews, do you.
I’ve seen a post about this kinda situation before that claimed the plug in that case had been falsely advertised as 100% silicone
I suspect this might be the same story which went through several rounds of internet retelling
Yeah, it does kinda have that urban myth kinda quality to it
🎶 Well did she ever return, no she never returned
And her fate is still unlearned
She may plug forever the hole beneath her
She’s the lady who never returned 🎶
Charlie on the MTA reference? Well done!
Hope she was alright
The patient has not returned any of our calls yet to try and follow up to see how she is doing.
I suspect more from embarrassment than anything else.
Shame, if only sexuality wasn’t so demonised and safety practises were more openly discussed it might lead to less embarassment or difficult situations like this.
