Spotting with IUD
| Wed, 06-07-2006 - 3:46pm |
Hi all,
I had a copper IUD instered in January. My periods were longer, beginning with spotting (days of spotting). I just chalked it up to my body getting used to the device. This time my period was here, I had one day of spotting before actual bleeding. Cool, I thought. But... period "ended" Thurs or Friday last week. After one or two days of no discharge, I'm now spotting again.
Any IUD users out there experience this???

I posted yesterday about birth control pills. The reason I posted that is because I had an issue with my IUD. I have used an IUD for about 7 years. I started spotting, then bleeding, then nothing, then spotting etc. I went in yesterday and they said it had moved down to my cervix and was falling out. I had it removed. Not saying that is what you are experiencing, but I would check it out. The other issue my doctor mentioned is if it is falling out then it is not in the proper position to be providing you with adequate protection.

No, I have never experienced it, but I have an IUD question. I am thinking about having one inserted and was just wondering: How painful is the actual procedure to get it inserted? How much cramping/bleeding is there during insertion? What about afterward? Any info would be much appreciated. Thanks!
