IUD Poking Out Of Cervix, Possible To Check The Strings On IUD. Suggested To Just Keep A Watch On It. Concerning?

My boyfriend can feel my Intrauterine Device when I'm on top and that's the only time he can feel it. He also checks my strings for me. I recently went to my gynecologist and she said she can she my IUD poking out of my cervix but not a lot. She said everything looks good though. I just need to keep an eye on it. It scared me so I'm seeking a second opinion

Hi,
Welcome to HCM.
Just keep an eye on IUD as suggested by your gynecologist, it should be sufficient as of now. If you are too much concerned, you can ask your gynecologist to replace the IUD with a new one.
Wish you good health.
