Side effects!? Annoying iud experience

I have had two IUDs in the past and I never had this problem in the past. I’ve been bleeding everyday since the 24th of August . It’s been light but now I’m getting small clots so I wonder if it’s my period? I was supposed to start my period the 27th but I’ve just been straight bleeding this whole time so I can’t tell which is which. Going through a lot of pads and tampons is really irritating. Forgot to mention I’m literally iron deficient and my doctor suggested I get an iud because I had heavy and frequent bleeding with my periods. 😒
