Hi,
Pain during periods is due to muscle spasms which can be treated with antispasmodic but in your case it is also to be ascertained if the copper coil is at the correct position or not. Hence, I would suggest an ultrasound.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
