IUD moving ?

Question

I got my IUD on Tuesday and checked to see if I can feel the strings yesterday and I felt them a little bit. Today I had sex with a condom and checked afterwards to see if they were there and I cant feel them. Can IUD strings move after sex? Should I be worried?

Answer

Your strings have probably curled up around your cervix.
Your strings will also soften over time, making them harder to feel.

I find the easiest way to find your strings is to feel for your cervix and cervical opening, and from there you will feel the strings.
