What causes dizziness after having an IUD inserted?

We all know that when men and women have sex, if they do not take contraceptive measures, it is very likely to cause pregnancy. In order to avoid accidental pregnancy, some couples choose to wear an IUD, which is to add an IUD into the woman's uterus. This is a relatively long-term and effective contraceptive method, but some women feel dizzy after wearing the IUD. What's going on?

It is mostly caused by physical weakness and insufficient blood supply to the head. Pay more attention to rest and exercise appropriately

Dizziness may be caused by anemia. IUD insertion usually causes symptoms such as irregular menstruation, irregular bleeding, and abdominal pain.

Eat more Chinese medicine or food that replenishes qi and blood, eat more nutritional supplements, and maintain a good mood.

Considering that it has nothing to do with the IUD, dizziness may be caused by a cold, cervical spondylosis, anemia, Meniere's syndrome, arrhythmia, poor rest time and quality, all of which may be the cause. The cause needs to be found and targeted treatment can be given. Also pay attention to lacunar infarction and hypertension, both of which are possible. Check them out first.

Side effects of the IUD: bleeding, mainly manifested as excessive menstrual flow, prolonged menstruation or mid-term spotting. Treatment can include indomethacin, aminocaproic acid or Yunnan Baiyao. If treatment is ineffective after 3 cycles, consider removing the IUD, replacing it or using other contraceptive methods; feeling of heaviness in the waist and abdomen.

"Three taboos and eight points to note" after having an IUD inserted

If you do not know how to or do not perform self-monitoring after the IUD is inserted, some unnecessary complications may occur, and even contraceptive failure may occur. Some people call this kind of self-monitoring "three taboos and eight points of attention", namely:

1. It is strictly forbidden to participate in heavy physical labor or other weight-bearing work within one week after the IUD is inserted.

2. Avoid sexual intercourse within two weeks after the IUD is inserted.

3. Underwater work and jumping exercises, such as track and field sports, water sports, and fast-paced dancing, are prohibited within one month.

4. Please note that you should take full rest within 3 days after the IUD is inserted, and it is best to rest in bed.

5. Avoid taking a bath in a tub within 4 weeks to prevent bath water from entering the vagina and causing uterine infection. However, showers and sponge baths are available.

6. Keep the perineum clean and dry, and change underwear frequently to prevent infection.

7. Pay close attention to whether the ring falls off during menstruation or bowel movements within six months. It is recommended to go to the hospital for an ultrasound to observe the ring once a year.

8. Please consult a gynecologist if you have irregular menstruation or persistent menstrual bleeding.

9. Pay attention to nutrition and eat more iron-containing foods to prevent anemia caused by excessive menstrual blood.

10. It is normal to experience lower abdominal discomfort within 3 to 6 months after the IUD is inserted.

11. If you still experience a feeling of heaviness in the lower abdomen, back pain, abdominal pain, vaginal bleeding, or menstrual blood volume that is twice the normal amount after 7 months of IUD insertion, you should see a doctor. If there is no improvement, the IUD should be removed and other contraceptive methods should be used instead.
