Patient's question:
After inserting the intrauterine device (O-type ring, large size), my menstrual cycle became irregular. The period extended to over ten days or even half a month (previously it was about one week). For almost 20 days in a month, I experienced spotting. Sometimes the leukorrhea was bloody, sometimes yellow, and it was quite abundant. In the past month, I've also been experiencing severe lower back pain and soreness. After taking medication (Fubuxiongkang), it has slightly improved. Ultrasound examination showed no abnormalities. Is this related to the IUD? How should it be treated?Doctor's answer:
Hello: Your situation is a stimulation reaction after having an IUD inserted! Pay attention to actively doing personal menstrual care. Only consider changing the IUD if necessary.
