What Causes Vaginal Discharge With Clots Post IUD Insertion?
I had the more a IUD inserted 3 days ago. I ve been spotting a little, nothing bad, but yesterday I started passing clots of blood. Every time I go to the rest room there is at least one clot in the toilet after. They aren t too big, but they re still bigger than what I pass normally. Should I be worried?

Hi Thank you for asking HCM. I have gone through your query. Irregularities in menstrual cycle is common after using hormonal IUDs. As you got these symptoms just 3 days after IUD insertion, it should be checked by a gynecologist.There is possibility of complications like piercing uterus . Ultrasound examination should be done also. Hope this may help you. Let me know if anything not clear. Thanks.
