What Causes Vaginal Bleeding While On An IUD Implant?
Hi, I have an IUD inserted four months ago and it was fine for the first two months. However I have started experiencing vaginal bleeding nonstop for the last two months. The bleeding is not heavy at all. I only need a regular pad everyday. When I checked the string itself feels a little longer than it was when it was first inserted. I haven t experienced any other physical issues other than the spotting, no cramping or anything. Is it possible that the IUD had moved? And what should I do?
