Will I have menstrual disorders after inserting an IUD?

Patient's question:

Honestly, I really haven't experienced these situations before. Now, I've had my menstrual period with very little flow and shorter duration for two months in a row. What should I do about menstrual irregularity after getting an IUD? Is this caused by the IUD? How can I stabilize this situation?

Doctor's answer:

After the IUD insertion, menstrual irregularities may reappear. This is normal and is due to differences in individual constitutions. Generally, this condition will be completely restored after three months. Post-surgery, pay attention to personal hygiene, avoid sexual activity temporarily, and maintain a stable diet. If the condition remains abnormal, it is necessary to visit a hospital for an ultrasound examination and, if needed, remove the IUD. After the IUD insertion, symptoms such as excessive or insufficient menstrual flow, lower abdominal pain, and bleeding may also occur.
