Why is there blood in the vaginal discharge after IUD insertion?

With the development of today's society, many people choose contraceptive measures to prevent pregnancy, and no longer need to use uncomfortable condoms for contraception. However, many women choose to use IUDs for contraception, but many problems arise. So why does the leucorrhea contain blood after IUD insertion? Let's ask an expert to introduce this issue to us.

"IUD insertion" is the most commonly used long-term contraceptive measure for women of childbearing age in my country. Often an IUD can be left in the body for more than ten years. IUD insertion itself is a minor operation, placing a foreign object in the uterine cavity, and it takes some time for the body to adapt.

The scientific name of the "ring" is intrauterine device, abbreviated as IUD. It is placed in the uterine cavity of women of childbearing age, and achieves the purpose of abortion and contraception through mechanical stimulation and interference of chemical substances. It does not inhibit ovulation and does not affect the female endocrine system, thus avoiding the adverse reactions of general drug contraceptives. After years of practical improvement, most of the IUDs currently used in clinical practice are copper-containing or drug-containing IUDs. The stent materials are plastic, polyethylene, memory alloy, etc., and the shapes are not single, including round, T-shaped, V-shaped, Y-shaped and chain-shaped. IUDs made of different materials and in different shapes have their own characteristics, and therefore can be suitable for women with different physiques and needs.

In your case, you may have irregular vaginal bleeding and inflammation after the placement of the IUD. A small amount of bleeding in the short term after the placement of the ring is due to the abrasion of the endometrium by the placement of the contraceptive ring, but it will repair quickly. The bleeding usually lasts for a few days, and the amount of blood does not exceed the menstrual volume, so no treatment is required. If irregular bleeding persists or leucorrhea is severe and abnormal, it is recommended to seek medical attention and receive symptomatic treatment in a timely manner.

The above is the expert’s opinion on this issue. When using the IUD for contraception, patients should pay attention to the fact that the above-mentioned problems affect their health. Therefore, if the above-mentioned problems or other problems occur after IUD insertion, patients should consult an expert in time for a solution. Finally, I wish the patients a speedy recovery.
