Sex and IUD

Kellie

Anyone have trouble feeling anything during the first weeks/months of having an IUD?

Had a baby in July, got the mirena IUD placed on 8/29, started my period on 9/3. Since the start of my period it has not stopped. Sex has gotten so difficult because it's so sticky and gross up there even with copious amounts of lube. I hate it and it's got me almost wanting the thing out! Anyone have this or have tips on how to fix this? Thanks in advance!
