No, weight changes do not affect the IUD or its proper placement. Diaphragms are the method that need a fit-check after significant weight change.
Regular IUD checks are not necessary. Typically you get checked just once after insertion.
Weight change will not affect the location of an IUD
10 year IUD is better, it's less hormonal. The 5 year IUD makes ou gain weight because you rarely get our period with the 5 year IUD
To check your IUD string, just put a finger in your vagina and confirm that you can feel the string, you can't feel the plastic of the IUD, and the string does not seem to be noticably longer than the last time you checked.

You have the IUD checked four to six weeks after insertion. After that, there's no special need for a recheck if you have no complaints, but you should continue getting your annual exam as usual, and be sure to protect yourself against sexually transmissible infections.
I lost 4stone in the first 9 months of having mine in without really trying to, as the copper IUD doesnt contain hormones, it shouldn't actually affect weight.
it absolutely can you could be allergic to some of the compnents of the device go to the doctor and have it checked out
I am not sure but this just happened to me. I have had an IUD (Mirena) for 4 years and had not been having any periods. Recently, I lost almost 40 lbs and now I am having a regular period.
The copper IUD does not have systemic effects and does not cause weight gain.
If you or your partner are having discomfort during sex and you have the IUD, it makes sense to see your health care provider to make sure the IUD is not coming out. Avoid vaginal sex or use a backup method of birth control until you confirm the IUD's location. Weight loss, however, does not increase the chances of the IUD coming out.
If you suspect an Inter-Uterine device (IUD) is missing, an MRI can detect it, if it's still inside the body. Of course, if the MRI doesn't detect it, it isn't there anymore.
