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.

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.


Is there a specialist just to locate a lost IUD?

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.
