Intrauterine device (IUD) insertion

Patient's question:

I have been taking it for five days, and I feel a bit uncomfortable in my stomach. Is this normal? What should I pay attention to? I have already taken a box of Amoxicillin. Should I continue taking it? Thank you for your answer.

Doctor's answer:

After inserting the IUD, there may be some discomfort, such as a small amount of bleeding in the vagina, increased menstrual flow, irregular menstrual cycles, lower back and sacral pain, abdominal pain, and a feeling of coolness in the abdomen. These are all normal. Symptoms usually disappear within 2-3 months.
