What Causes Bleeding After Intercourse Despite Having An IUD?

I had an iud inserted about two weeks ago. The strings were bothering my boyfriend so I tried to move them out of the way a little and I may have pushed on the iud. I felt a strange sensation and stopped but now my strings feel considerably shorter and I am in some pain. This happened about four days ago and on the second day I experienced some bleeding. Because it is New Years my obgyn is not open and urgent care facilities don t have the knowledge or tools to assess my situation. I need to know if this is urgent and I need to go to the ER or if I can wait until tomorrow to set up an appointment with my doctor
