Pain During Intercourse After Changing IUD. Cause?
Dear Doctor,
i am 37 years old and mother of two kids...i have been having a IUD (Copper T) after my elder daughter's birth for 4 years and then again after my son's birth for almost 4 years..i recently got the IUD changed since the period has expired for the previous one...i never experienced any side effects earlier...but after changing the one recently, i am experiencing pain. I have this cringing pain when i sit and also when i pass the motions, the pain seems to be unbearable. Also during intercourse i experience pain...could this be because of the IUD? if it is IUD then will there be pain when i pass my motions? i am not sure..but my gynaec has told me that tomorrow she will get my IUD removed if i am not feeling better with the medicines she has given me. Kindly advice

Hello,
New inserted IUD is commonly associated with pelvic pain, mild bleeding, painful coitus, infection etc. It occurs due to misplaced or inflammation of local tissue.
It is better to remove the IUD if it is uncomfortable. You can opt for combined OCP or other contraceptive method instead of that. Kindly, consult with your doctor.
Hope, it helps for you. Maintain genital hygiene properly.
