Bleeding after having the ring

If a woman continues to bleed after having an IUD inserted, she should pay attention to this as it is a side effect of wearing the IUD. This often leads to increased menstrual blood volume and prolonged menstrual bleeding, and sometimes increased vaginal discharge. If this situation is not relieved for a long time, she should go to the hospital for examination in time as it may be related to the woman's physical constitution. In this case, you can consider removing the IUD.

Notes on belt rings

Although bleeding after IUD insertion is a normal adaptive process of the human body for most women, there is no need to be nervous or require special treatment. However, if bleeding occurs after inserting the IUD, there are many precautions that can reduce bleeding or deal with some special situations.

After the IUD is inserted, wash the vulva every day. Do not take a bath in a basin within two weeks. Also, do not have sex within three weeks to avoid infection.

The third check-up is required 12 months after the insertion of the IUD. After that, an check-up is required every year.
