Patient's question:
I already have two children at home. My husband and I discussed that we no longer plan to have more children, so a while ago, I had an IUD inserted. However, after inserting the IUD, I noticed that my menstrual cycle is irregular. It has been delayed by 2 to 3 days and still hasn't arrived. What could be the reason for irregular menstruation after inserting an IUD?Doctor's answer:
After a woman has an IUD, changes in her menstrual function can be addressed through the following aspects. Mainly, it involves herbs like motherwort. Additionally, consuming some soy milk in the morning may also be helpful, as it shows some correlation with the IUD. For the majority of people, the menstrual function will naturally recover within 2 to 3 menstrual cycles. Just relax and pay attention to personal hygiene to prevent bacterial pathogens from invading and spreading.
