Iud strings get long every period...then go back to normal...anybody else???

Hi there! As the title says my iud strings seem to get long each period then go back to normal after it's over...

I brought it up with my doc and she took a look and said it looks fine and it doesn't look like it's expelling. I had to go back another time for labs and asked the physician nurse there to take a look and she did a said the same thing. She also told me it happens.

I trust my doctor. I would just like to know if anybody has experienced the same thing...
