My strings!

Tatyanna
I'm supposed to be off my period. It's day 8 and I'm currently spotting. I went to check my strings and they are literally right there. Did my cervix move? Is this normal????? I'm freaking out. I put my finger in and not even all the way I have the hardness like the tip of my nose which is how the cervix feels and the strings on the side.

The Cervix moves up and down a bit throughout our cycle. When your on or near your period, it moves down more. It is trippy though!

Sounds like your cervix is siting low, which is a normal position, and is probably sitting there as you bleeding.Check it again in a few days. Try to memorise how long the strings feel now, so in future you can tell if they feel longer or shorter.If your bleeding is very heavy (soaking highest abosorbency pad/tampon in under 2 hours) and lasts longer than 10 days, definitely see your doctor.

Honestly, no. The bleeding usually is heavier, and most women experience a lot of pain. I think you're fine.

does this sound like my iud is expelling?

Sounds like very normal bleeding. Sounds like everything is going well, but keep an eye on your strings for now. IUDs are more likely to perforate or expel during the first month after insertion. Usually after that first month you should be fine.

Is my iud coming out😞. This is scaring me and now I think I'm making myself paranoid thinking I feel slight pain down there when it's probably nothing.
