Members sexymama Posted October 7, 2007 Members Report Share Posted October 7, 2007 Just wondering if anyone has ever had a problem using sex toys with an IUD, if they get caught on the strings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyger Posted October 7, 2007 Report Share Posted October 7, 2007 I don't have an IUD, but I wouldn't think that there'd be any more risk of getting a toy caught on the string as with a condom-covered penis either. If you're really concerned about it, ask your doctor that put in the IUD, they'd be better qualified to answer this question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Deveninny Posted October 8, 2007 Members Report Share Posted October 8, 2007 I guess I was just wondering if any of the fancy thrusting spinning gizmos posed a problem... those that aren't quite dicklike. Unless it has a hook-like end or something like that...I can tell you there is no chance of it "pulling" it out of place. Although some women do have issues with the I.U.D. being expelled by vigorous sexual activity. If you've already had the I.U.D. in place for some time and have been sexually active...little or no chance of having issues with it. Although, if the end of the string (usually) a nylon type...isn't curled, a bare penis can and in my experience get's "pricked" by it from time to time.

Members Mikayla1 Posted October 8, 2007 Members Report Share Posted October 8, 2007 I put a call in to my OBGYN (I can ask her anything) and she said that an IUD CAN come loose under certain circumstances - but it is very rare. As far as sex toy use, the risk of the IUD coming dislodged is the same as it would be for normal sex - even if it is a "spinning, rotating, jack hammer" type toy!So, the risk is equal for toys or boys per my OB!

In my regular job, I am a midwife, and it is extremely rare for an IUD to become dislodged. Rule of thumb with any toy...IUD or no IUD...if you start to feel pain or pressure (that you don't want to be feeling)--stop! Personally, My IUD had not been a problem, other than an occational "poke" to my husband (the string is like fishing line). If you are worried about the string getting tugged, it can easily be pushed up deep into the vagina and out of the way (there is a handy little crevice behind the cervix at the very top of the vagina).Have fun!
