Can rough sex shift your IUD?

Evelina • Birth doula, mothering the mother💗

I’ve had the ParaGard iud in for 8months now, placed it 2 months pp. it’s my first time ever being on birth control we used family planning before my first baby.

Anyway I checked the strings weekly and they seemed fine until one time after my husband and I had rough sex and I forgot to check the next day anyway a week later I can’t seem to feel the strings and I’m late on my period. Kind of freaking out ...?
