How to deal with a small amount of bleeding after insertion of an intrauterine device

Patient's question:

I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. What should I do if there's a small amount of bleeding after getting an IUD?

Doctor's answer:

In your case, the bleeding may be caused by qi deficiency failing to control blood, often resulting from prolonged illness, exhaustion, or spleen deficiency leading to qi deficiency. When qi is deficient, it cannot properly regulate blood circulation, causing blood to overflow from vessels. Alternatively, chronic blood loss may deplete qi, turning it into qi deficiency that fails to hold blood.
It is recommended to take a large dose of astragalus decoction to invigorate qi and stop bleeding.
Hello, this time is near the critical point of ovulation, so the chances of pregnancy are relatively low. If you want to conceive, the timing around the 14th would be more favorable. You can use an ovulation test kit to monitor your ovulation status.
