Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
Strong and weird smell coming from vagina with IUD in place indicates bacterial infection.
It is better you don't ignore the symptoms.
Kindly visit Gynecologist at the earliest and have a check so that any abnormality detected could be treated soon.
Take care.
Wish you good health.
