Hello,
Welcome to hcm,
Irregular bleeding and spotting is common post removal of intrauterine device.it will take 2-3 cycles for your periods to become normal .I advice you to wait for few days if you still don't get your periods then do urine pregnancy test ,if its negative then take medroxy progesterone for withdrawal bleeding.

Thank you,
Take care
