Hi,

Thanks for the query.

I understand your issue. Bleeding after copper T is common and is usually in the form of heavy bleeding during periods. White discharge is also common.
Continuous heavy discharge may occur in some women but it needs to be investigated to rule out other causes. Also backache and heavy discharge indicate an infection.

I suggest that you get a gynecologic examination done and also check to see if the copper T is in place. If it is an infection, it will get treated by antibiotics.

Hope this satisfies your query.
Thanks for using HCM.
Feel free to ask any more questions that you may have.
