I think my IUD is falling out?

Question

I got paraguard placed about a week and a half ago and I'm 11 weeks PP. I started my first period since getting pregnant 3 days ago and noticed that it was much heavier than it used to be and figured it was because of the IUD. Tonight as I was taking a shower I decided to check the threads and I think I feel the base of the IUD sticking out of my cervix. My doctor isn't open until Monday. Can this wait until then? I'm not cramping or in any discomfort. Thankfully I haven't had sex so there's no concern about pregnancy. Is this something to worry about?

Answer

Call your ob & seal to the on call. You’re not supposed to check during your period bc your cervix is open.

Answer

My Liletta came out about 2 weeks ago. Out of nowhere I had cramps, bled heavily and then the strings were down to the middle of my thigh. Mine  was coming out anyway and I just pulled on it really softly and it came out the rest of the way. I stopped bleeding and cramping almost immediately. It was a Saturday, I went to the OB Monday and all that happened was a new birth control. I probably should've gone to the ER, but I was so relieved once it was out I wasn't worried anymore. Best of luck.

Answer

If you for sure feel it I would go to the ER. they can travel if they come out of place.
