Does the intrauterine device affect menstrual periods?

Patient's question:

Irregular periods for half a year, generally around 25 days, with a clean week in between.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, early after the intrauterine device (IUD) insertion, there may be some adverse effects on menstruation, such as increased menstrual flow or shortened menstrual periods. Pay attention to daily care, maintain a light diet, and generally, the problem is not serious.
Actually, under normal circumstances, any form of contraception can have some negative effects on women. Therefore, patients should pay attention to self-care. For those using contraception, it is important to take care of themselves, such as adjusting their diet, keeping warm, and avoiding colds.
