I've had an iud for five years and there were a few times where my hubby felt it during sex. In the beginning, the strings are a little stiff, and because they hang down, it's possible for your guy to feel it. After a while, they soften up and sometimes they curl up a little bit due to sex or using tampons. If he continues to feel it, you can always go back to the doctor to have the strings trimmed a little. They'd rather keep them a little longer and have to trim them than trim them too short so it's difficult for you to find each month to make sure it's in place.

He may be feeling the strings! I have the Mirena IUD and my husband has never felt anything. If it continues I would give the Dr a call. They can trim the strings and make them shorter.

specific, your important different ought to in all probability be feeling the stings. it fairly is between the main important court docket situations from adult males concerning to the IUD. My rfile informed me he gets a number of of court docket situations concerning to the stings poking the guy for the time of intercourse. you may touch your rfile and have him trim them back farther, thats what my rfile does whilst he places them in, whether it makes it so as that I cant verify for it. He additionally informed me that when a whilst the strings soften up and in specific situations roll up then the undertaking is going away too. that's going to no longer harm something if he's feeling it, nicely it ought to harm him a splash whether it won't consequence the IUD

No, the IUD is completely inside the uterus, sealed off by the cervix. There is a very thin string that remains outside the cervix by a couple inches, so the device can be retrieved easily.
If he's thinking that he feels something you should get yourself checked.

The only part you should feel is the string, which in a few days or so should soften... Every so often, you should check to feel the strings, as to know it is still in place and everything is ok. I would suggest calling your doctor to ask them if it continues. Good luck.

He will be able to feel the strings for a week or two, until they get softer. If they are really firm and are hurting him, or if they don't get softer in couple weeks, ask your doctor to trim them- it only takes a second, and it's painless.
