"I've had an IUD for 2 years. Recently, I can easily feel the string for a good length, and this is the first time. What should I do?"

It is recommended to consult a healthcare provider if you are able to easily feel the string of your IUD for the first time and it seems longer than before. This could be a sign that the IUD has shifted position and may need to be checked by a medical professional to ensure it is still properly in place.
