What is wrong with the blood streaking in the vaginal discharge after IUD insertion?

IUD insertion is a method of contraception chosen by many women, but many women will experience some physical changes after the insertion. For example, the menstrual cycle will be much longer than before the insertion. Some friends will also have blood in their leucorrhea. This will make female friends very worried, and they don’t know what is going on. Let’s understand why there is blood in the leucorrhea after the IUD insertion.

There are two types of bloody vaginal discharge: physiological and pathological. Generally speaking, some women will experience ovulation bleeding during their ovulation period, also known as mid-menstrual bleeding, which refers to a small amount of bleeding between two normal menstrual periods, which may be accompanied by varying degrees of lower abdominal pain. If the symptoms are mild, no treatment is needed. If the bleeding is heavy or affects fertility, medication can be used for treatment.

However, if there is bloody leucorrhea, the following diseases should also be considered: (1) cervical polyps. (2) Acute vaginitis. (3) Severe cervical erosion. (4) Senile vaginitis. (5) Cervical cancer. (6) Submucosal uterine fibroids. (7) Endometrial cancer. In addition, sometimes due to the placement of an intrauterine contraceptive ring, there may be some blood mixed in the leucorrhea.

Normal symptoms after IUD insertion:

1. Mild back pain and soreness: It is caused by the discomfort caused by the placement of the ring and the contraction of the uterus. It will disappear naturally after a period of time. During this period, be careful not to do heavy work.

2. Increased vaginal discharge: When the uterus is stimulated, cervical secretions increase. Generally, this symptom will gradually decrease 3 months after the ring is placed.

3. A small amount of vaginal bleeding, or a shortened menstrual cycle, a prolonged menstrual period, or a heavy menstrual flow: This is because the endometrium is compressed by the ring, causing inflammatory infiltration in the cells. Over time, the symptoms will disappear as the uterus adapts.

What's wrong with blood in the vaginal discharge after IUD insertion?

Don’t be nervous, it will gradually get better. If there is no improvement, you should go to the hospital for examination in time, and never ignore it.
