Kyleena IUD and bleeding after sex

Hi all, I’m wondering if anyone can help me. I’ve had the kyleena IUD for over a year and a bit now, but for the past few weeks every time me and my partner have had sex, I’ve bled afterwards (tmi: not a great amount but enough to drip a few times) and have had pinkish discharge occasionally in between too.

I went to the GP and they checked everything and apparently it seems normal and healthy. I’m just a bit concerned as to why I’m bleeding all of a sudden after being fine for a year. Could this be something else or is it normal for the IUD?

Has anyone else had this experience?

Could be the hormones in the coil making your cervix more sensitive and prone to spotting.
