What Causes Bloody Vaginal Discharge After Insertion Of An IUD?

I went to the dr two weeks I had a IUD inserted after that I was told I had bacteria of the vagina. I was put on an antibiotic and since then it s gotten worst. Now I have a thick bloody discharge. I thought it was a yeast infection so then I did a three day yeast infection medication and it doesn t appear to be getting better. Can you tell me what s the problem

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,

Here the condition initially is vaginal infection. Later on after iucd insertion there is flare up of infection along with consecutive action of iucd. So I think above symptoms are due to pick, and should be treated accordingly and iucd is to be removed.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Pavani
