Patient's question:
Detailed medical condition and consultation purpose: After inserting the intrauterine device, menstruation has been lasting for half a month without stopping. What should I do?Duration of the current illness and persistence: 4 months
Current general condition: Occurring continuously
Previous diagnosis, treatment history, and effectiveness: Prescribed some medication like Gongxuebao and Cephalexin, but it hasn't improved after several months.
Doctor's answer:
After inserting an IUD, most people will experience varying degrees of bleeding. In addition to an increase in menstrual flow, there may also be spotting after menstruation and blood-tinged discharge. Most people will gradually improve and return to normal after a period of time. The uterine lining may become compressed by the IUD, leading to local congestion, edema, or even necrosis, resulting in ulceration and bleeding at the compressed area. This condition is related to a minority of people not adapting well, and it generally resolves on its own after a period of time. Of course, it can also be treated quickly for recovery. For your situation, it is recommended to visit a hospital's gynecology department for examination and symptomatic treatment.
