Can your partner feel the IUD strings during sex?

Re

Rebecca

I’m getting an IUD (Kyleena) next week and I’m a little nervous as I’ve heard people have gotten them taken out because their partner can feel them. My partner is above average in size and this concerns me, as well as him hitting my cervix and knocking it out of place. Any advice/experiences would be appreciated

They aren’t suppose too but mine did, I ended up removing it because it was causing him pain and stabbing him (had the blood marks to prove it) and also it was causing me pain. I had mine in six months before we met and had sex so they had plenty of time to change

No joke after having mine cut after first getting it put in the Next day the strings were hanging out of my vagina (which irritates worse than thrush it was so bad) I had to go straight to the emergency sexual health clinic because i thought it fell out but it hadn’t, I had my strings cut 4 times before the cut them all away🤦🏻‍♀️never ever again

I ended up having the strings cut so they weren’t there anymore butt then I couldn’t feel if it had migrated or not anymore which is what the strings are used for so ended up getting it removed, would not recommend that as it takes longer to remove and is more painful when doing so, I’ll never go back to it just because of the hassle I had with it, apparently it’s worse if you have a slightly tilted cervix as I found out I do as it’s harder to judge how far up they need to cut them and that’s when you end up with these problems 🤕🤕

Yes. I had the mirena IUD for over a year and I got the strings cut down twice to the point where there wasnt any more string left and so when I got it removed my dr had to use this scary looking grabber thing. 😩 but my husband could always feel them and I could feel it being hit too, it was so uncomfortable.
