Patient's question:
What should I do if I get pregnant unexpectedly? How can the harm be minimized? After getting an IUD, how to relieve menstrual disorders and lower abdominal painDoctor's answer:
Hello, your situation is caused by the IUD. An IUD is a foreign object, and the body needs time to adapt after it is inserted into the uterus. Most women using an IUD for contraception experience no adverse reactions, while a few may have some side effects and complications. If you experience lower back and sacral pain, lower abdominal fullness, bloody discharge, spotting, irregular vaginal bleeding, increased menstrual flow, or shorter menstrual cycles after inserting the IUD, mild symptoms generally do not require treatment. The symptoms will gradually subside or disappear on their own as the body adapts. For severe symptoms, you should seek medical attention for symptomatic treatment. If the symptoms do not improve after treatment, the IUD should be removed, and alternative contraception methods should be considered.
