Answer this question

Go to a doctor or Family Planning Clinic. I don't know your sexual history or risk of infections, but if that's a possibility then it can be serious, as STIs don't mix well with IUDs. Use condoms until you have an answer. There are lots of possible reasons for painful sex, however. If you have trouble getting a diagnosis, ask your FPC whether they have any doctors who specialise in sexual pain - this makes a huge difference.

I would go back to the clinic or doctors that fitted it for you, it could be something as simple as the coil as moved, I have the myrena coil, and sex wasn't painful,
The coil is hormone based and releases hormones which may change the colour, although its not a thing I've looked into.
def give them a ring, its most prob the simplest of explanations.
Good luck. xx

Hi,

For any unusual pain or change in colour (of discharge?) you should make an appointment with your GP.

It could be something very simple and easy to solve but because you have a coil you must get it checked out.

Good luck :)
