IUD Strings too long?

Nayeli
Hi guys today I got my copper IUD inserted and I think the strings are too long, they are poking me and they are bothering me a lot. Is this normal and for how long will they be like this???  (I heard that the doctor sometimes does this on purpose because the strings curl up) #help :(
