Patient's question:
On March 1, 2013, I had an IUD inserted three days after my period ended. On March 13, I had some minor vaginal irritation, but it wasn't excessive bleeding. However, now I'm starting to have vaginal bleeding. I'm a bit worried. I want to ask what causes vaginal bleeding two weeks after inserting an IUD?Doctor's answer:
Consider the possibility of an unsuitable ring leading to this issue. If the ring causes the uterine lining to develop ulcers again and leads to infection, in addition to skin breakdown, it may also cause lower abdominal pain. Through treatment, if the symptoms do not improve within a month, it indicates that recovery is not possible, and the intrauterine device needs to be removed, with alternative contraception methods being used. The daily treatment for gynecological patients primarily involves symptomatic treatment. Patients can take some oral medications, supplemented with vitamins, and pay attention to regular rest and avoid alcohol.
