After getting an IUD inserted, it is important to pay attention to the following:
1. **Pain and discomfort**: It is normal to experience some cramping, spotting, or discomfort after getting an IUD inserted. However, if the pain is severe or persistent, it is important to contact your healthcare provider.
2. **Bleeding**: Some light bleeding or spotting is common after getting an IUD inserted. If you experience heavy bleeding or bleeding that lasts longer than a few weeks, consult your healthcare provider.
3. **Check for strings**: Your healthcare provider will typically trim the strings of the IUD after insertion. It is important to check for the strings regularly to ensure that the IUD is in place. If you cannot feel the strings or if they feel longer or shorter than usual, contact your healthcare provider.
4. **Infection**: Watch out for signs of infection such as fever, chills, severe abdominal pain, or unusual discharge. If you experience any of these symptoms, seek medical attention immediately.
5. **Follow-up appointments**: Make sure to attend any follow-up appointments scheduled by your healthcare provider to ensure that the IUD is properly in place and functioning correctly.
If you have any concerns or questions about your IUD after insertion, do not hesitate to contact your healthcare provider for guidance and support.
