I have a VCH piercing which has only recently started getting flagged. Also a very awkward pat down.

I'm into a few body mods and I've been thinking a few piercings in the area to run lace through them for fun parties. Now you got me thinking about traveling with such piercings.

I've had mine for over a decade and have never had an issue

How many do you have? Cause I'm thinking three or four a side (6 to 8 total), and I'm not looking for a groping every time I go to the airport.

I have a VCH so just one that sits right above my clit

I have never had an issue. The original commenter said she only just started having the issue this year.

I say go for it if you want to, don't let the metal detectors stop you!

The scanner tech changed somewhat recently I think? I have a Christina and got flagged within the last year as well.
