Can rough sex cause a iud to move? what makes a iud move?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
IUD: Once an IUD is placed inside the uterus it is quite stable. Sex does not move an IUD. IUDs can be expelled at the rate of about 1/2000. This is usually from abnormal initial placement, anatomic variants or uterine contractions.
