Hi,
Spotting and irregular menstrual bleeding is often seen in the initial days after insertion of any IUD. Regestrone is a hormone and withdrawal bleeding is seen after completion of treatment. As such, the right thing for you to do now is to switch over to simple styptics after consulting your doctor. If there is no response, then you may have to continue with the hormone treatment, but please do not stop using it in a day or two. else. you'll start bleeding again; the treatment should be continued for at least 2-3 weeks. Hope this helps.
