　　Within a few days after IUD insertion (mainly the first three days), there may be a small amount of vaginal bleeding, slight lower abdominal discomfort (such as backache, etc.) and increased leucorrhea (this is caused by surgical trauma or mechanical compression of the IUD or rupture of small endometrial blood vessels). Generally, it will disappear on its own without treatment. If the bleeding is heavy or lasts for more than a week, especially if abdominal pain, fever, etc. occur, you should see a doctor in time.

　　In the first 3 months after IUD insertion, especially for some women whose uterine openings are loose and have heavy menstrual flow, the IUD may fall off with menstrual blood during menstruation. Therefore, such women should pay special attention to whether the ring falls out with menstrual blood when going to the toilet during menstruation. Once it happens, you should go to the hospital to replace it in time, and pay attention to changing the model of the right size to avoid falling off again.
