IUD Concern

I've had an IUD for 8 months. I notice that when i get my period my string hangs very low and sometimes...ok this is graphic, i aplogize... sometimes when i remove my tampon i can feel a tug, it hurts bad. I'm wondering if it drops because of my cycle or if this is a sign of expulsion. This only happens during my period. Any experiences or thoughts?

I was going to say the same thing about the strings as the PP. Talk to your doctor, mine told me the strings could be trimmed shorter if I had problems. She likes to leave them long at first so you can get used to feeling for them.
