Less menstruation after IUD insertion

IUD insertion is a very common contraceptive method for women. Compared with using condoms or taking birth control pills, this method is a better one. It has less impact on women's bodies, is safer, and has good contraceptive effects. Many women will experience some adverse reactions after having an IUD inserted, and less menstruation is a very common one. Will having an IUD insert cause less menstruation?

Generally speaking, having an IUD inserted will not affect menstruation. If you experience excessive menstruation, prolonged menstrual cycles, or dysmenorrhea, it is possible that you have an infection during or after the insertion of the IUD. Because the endometrium is very fragile, if bacteria or viruses are introduced into the uterine cavity during IUD insertion, or if you do not pay attention to hygiene after the insertion, it is easy to cause uterine cavity infection, excessive bleeding, prolonged menstruation, and dysmenorrhea. However, the possibility of infection during IUD insertion rarely occurs in regular hospitals. If the IUD affects menstruation and symptoms of excessive or insufficient menstruation occur, serious diagnosis and treatment are required.

The IUD will stimulate the endometrium, and some people will experience menstrual irregularities, such as prolonged menstruation and heavy menstrual flow. After the IUD is inserted, women may experience a small amount of vaginal bleeding, or a shortened menstrual cycle, heavier menstrual flow, or longer menstrual period. This is because the endometrium is compressed by the IUD and the cells undergo inflammatory infiltration. Over time, the symptoms will disappear as the uterus adapts. . Abnormal leucorrhea is often caused by gynecological diseases such as vaginitis and cervicitis. It is recommended to go to a regular hospital's gynecology department to check the leucorrhea routine, identify the pathogenic bacteria and then use medication for treatment. Rinse the vagina less often, eat spicy seafood and sweet food, drink more yogurt fermented by lactic acid bacteria, pay attention to the hygiene of the vagina, do not wear pantyhose, and choose loose and baggy cotton underwear.

If you experience heavy menstruation, prolonged menstrual cycles, or dysmenorrhea, it is possible that you got infected during or after the insertion of the IUD because the endometrium is very fragile. If bacteria or viruses are brought into the uterine cavity during IUD insertion, or if hygiene is not paid attention to after IUD insertion, it can easily cause uterine cavity infection, excessive bleeding, prolonged menstruation, and dysmenorrhea. Over time, the symptoms will disappear as the uterus adapts. Pay attention to keeping the vulva clean and hygienic.

In most cases, women's menstrual flow will increase after wearing an IUD. In a few patients, the menstrual flow will decrease, which usually lasts for three months to half a year before the body gradually adapts and returns to its normal menstrual flow. After the IUD is inserted, you can have another B-ultrasound check one month later to check the position of the IUD and the condition of the endometrium. As long as there are no major problems, it can be treated with medication. Then you can take some Fuxuekang capsules. Generally, it will return to normal in 3-6 months. If it still happens after three months, it is recommended that you go to the hospital for examination and receive treatment after the situation is clarified.
