Had my period for 2 weeks after IUD ??

I'm not sure why my period is lasting so long. My doctor told me that the iud would stop my period, but it seems to be lasting longer than usual. I've also noticed large bloody globs like clot twice when I showered, but now it's turned into a light period. Should I book an appointment with my doctor to discuss this?
