How long does it take to return to normal after getting an IUD?

Patient's question:

I have gone to the hospital for a check-up, and there are no problems. However, I still experience abdominal and lower back pain, and sometimes there is some bleeding. How long does it usually take to recover after getting an IUD?
Additional question: I got the IUD three months after giving birth, and it has been two months since then. I have already visited the hospital, and the check-up results were normal. The doctor prescribed some anti-inflammatory medication and told me to wait for two to three more months before rechecking. If the pain still persists like this at that time, I will need to have the IUD removed. I heard that it can take up to about half a year to recover after getting an IUD. Is that true?

Doctor's answer:

That's right, follow the doctor's advice. In addition to symptomatic treatment and contraception, patients need to consult experts more often and maintain communication with their doctors. Follow the doctor's advice step by step. Patients also need to pay attention to nursing aspects, such as a light diet and avoiding spicy and irritating foods. At the same time, patients should also pay attention to choosing a reputable hospital for diagnosis and treatment, so that they can get good treatment results.
