Does the copper iud thicken cervical mucus?

Question

Got it 2 months ago and I've been having booger like discharge a few times? Other than the occasional big clump (not a yeast infection) I have my normal discharge

Answer

YES! When I had the copper IUD my discharge was insane and it wasn’t yeast or anything it was directly related to IUD

Answer

Nope, the hormones in the Mirena/Kyleena thicken mucus. The copper Paraguard doesn’t thicken mucus since it’s only copper, but it took a few months for my body to adjust to the Paraguard and I had similar changes while my hormones figured themselves out.
