If both husband and wife do not want children, they will choose some contraceptive methods that can prevent pregnancy and not affect normal sexual life, which is intrauterine device (IUD) insertion. But some women may find that even after having sex with an IUD, they still experience menstruation. So, what is the reason why an IUD still causes menstruation?
After getting an intrauterine device (IUD), most people may still experience menstruation, with an increase in menstrual blood flow, as well as occasional spotting and blood streaks in the vaginal discharge. These symptoms will gradually improve and return to normal after a period of time. The main reason is that the endometrium is compressed by the contraceptive ring, which can cause local congestion, edema, and even necrosis, leading to ulceration and bleeding in the compressed area.
If there are no other adverse phenomena accompanying it, there is no need to be overly nervous. This situation is related to a small number of people not adapting, and it can usually heal on its own after a period of time. Of course, it can also be quickly recovered through treatment. If accompanied by pain or infection, contraceptive ring surgery is necessary.
There are some precautions after surgery: firstly, rest for two days after surgery, prohibit sexual activity and bathing for two weeks; Secondly, if there is slight bleeding or mild abdominal pain after surgery, there is no need for further treatment; Thirdly, pay attention to whether the contraceptive device falls off during menstruation and after defecation within 3 months. In addition, in addition to the above three precautions, try to have a lighter diet.
