Why am I experiencing brown spotting after copper IUD insertion?

Patient's Query

Hello, I’m 20 years old, so recently a month back I got a copper iud placed. Recently me and my partner had unprotected sex on the 12th of this month and even since then I’ve been experiencing light bleeding and red and brown discharge, and as of these last few days I’ve been experiencing just brown discharge/ spotting and two days late on my period because I have a tracker and my last period was from August 2nd -8th, I took a pregnancy test and it came out negative, but I’m still concerned about my health

Answered by Dr. Swapna Chekuri

After copper IUD insertion, changes in your menstrual cycle are quite normal. The light bleeding and brown discharge could be because of your body getting used to the IUD. Besides stress, some other factors can also be the reason for irregularities. The negative pregnancy test is a good sign. Watch your symptoms and think about talking to your gynecologist if they worsen for more help.

There could be several internal or external causing this other than pregnancy. Stress well so hormonal changes are good examples. Besides that, any other symptoms should be observed including headache or swollen breasts. If the lady is bothered she can do a pregnancy test or see a gynecologist.

I'm 27 years old,I finished my period on the 21st of ds money and I'm ovulating now ,the thing is I've been having sticky creamy discharge and today I'm seeing blood discharge now with burning when I pee , I've been down with fever please what is wrong with me?

Female | 27

Urinary tract infections cause symptoms like blood in urine, burning during urination, and fever. Though discharge can change during ovulation, blood is worrying. Drinking plenty of water helps flush out bacteria. But, you'll need to see a urologist for proper diagnosis and treatment. UTIs are common infections that require medical care. Changing discharge is normal during ovulation, yet blood indicates concern. Staying hydrated combats infection, but medical attention is crucial.

Im pregnant and have small contraction. My stomach feel hard.

Female | 30

Feeling the muscles of your abdomen and experiencing contractions during pregnancy is normal, as it is the so-called Braxton Hicks. They occur while your body is preparing for labor. If the pain is mild & you don't have other symptoms, you are probably safe. Nevertheless, if you notice that you are very much in pain, are bleeding, or have other problems, it is necessary to visit a gynecologist. Hydration and rest are other ways to calm the mild pain.

I had a itching nd swelling and pain on my vaginal area

Female | 19-20 yr

Vaginal itching, swelling, and pain can signify a yeast infection. Yeast overgrowth disrupts the body's bacterial balance. Symptoms include intense itching, redness, and discomfort. Over-the-counter antifungal creams or suppositories provide relief. Additionally, wearing breathable cotton underwear and avoiding scented products minimizes irritation. However, if symptoms persist, consulting a gynecologist is advisable.

A yeast infection may cause uncomfortable symptoms. It's common, happening sometimes after taking antibiotics or, it might be due to a weak immune system. You could try an antifungal cream from the drugstore. But, if symptoms persist, see a urologist for further treatment recommendations.

Female | 30

It is not unusual for some women to experience periods that arrive every couple of months instead of every month. It may happen due to hormonal changes or stress. If you're not having any other symptoms such as pain or heavy bleeding. Make sure to eat healthily, exercise, and get enough rest. If you're worried, it's always a good idea to talk to a gynecologist to be sure.

I am a 22 year old woman. Over the past 4 years i have had 2 endometriosis surgeries and have an IUD placed. More than two weeks back I have started spotting, thereafter I have fallen very ill and had immensely painful pain, was nauseous the whole time had a fever, etc. This is almost two weeks past, I am still bleeding, still have a lot of pain, and are still very nauseous.

Female | 22

I suggest the likelihood of this being an infectious disease process somewhere in your reproductive system is high. This is why I would recommend that you see a gynecologist as soon as possible for them to evaluate the situation further.

The prescribed usage for Normens tablets is 21 days. If I take them for 25 days, will there be any problem? Will my AMH level decrease?

Female | 40

When you take Normens tablets longer than the prescribed 21 days, it may cause hormonal imbalance. An extended use of 25 days will not greatly affect your AMH level. However, it’s better to follow the recommended period to prevent any possible dangers.

Your health is very important, that's why you have to take care of yourself. Do not worry, your situation is quite common. Stress, hormonal changes, or lifestyle factors can affect your monthly cycle. You are feeling body pain and back pain, which are not the worrying topic. First and foremost, relax and give your body some time to heal. If the period still doesn't come, then contact a doctor so that they can have a check on your health. Their guidance can make you better understand the situation. Your health is very important, so be sure to take care of yourself.

I am 32 years for the past 3months am period comes out watery, and this month it came with severe menstrual cramps and am feeling the pains, my breast is also heavy and tender as well and am also want to be pregnant

Female | 32

It sounds like you’re experiencing some changes in your menstrual cycle, which can occur for various reasons, including hormonal fluctuations or stress. The heavy, tender sensation in your breasts, along with severe cramps, can indicate heightened hormonal activity, often seen before menstruation. Maintaining a balanced diet and tracking your cycle can be beneficial if you're trying to conceive. However, I encourage you to consult a gynecologist to discuss your symptoms. They can provide personalized advice and ensure everything is progressing well.
