What Could Cause Heavy Bleeding With Clots And Severe Abdominal Cramping After Removal Of IUD?

Hello, my iud was removed last Thursday, and on Saturday I started spotting. That has now turned into heavy bleeding, passing clots, and bad cramping. Is this normal? My last period was about 3 weeks ago so I'm not sure if this is a period. I had my iud in for 9 months. This is definitely a scary experience as I'm worried something may be wrong. It's a lot of blood and clots and these cramps are severe. Please help!

Thanks!

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I red your given history here and came on this conclusion that this is not the menses bleeding but the chances of trauma is just likely while removing the IUD the cramping is due to blood collection inside the uterine cavity if I would be your doctor then I would start the antibiotic as prophylactic and vitamin c too to control bleeding and this will give good result, nothing to worry it will be fine for sure, I hope this could clear you doubt have nice day.
