Okay well, for most tampons you're
supposed to change them once every 2-4
hours anyway, so 8 in one day is right
about where you should be, if not a little
on the heavy side of flow. Iuds are known
to increase the heaviness of periods. If
you are not experiencing any additional
pain or severe discomfort, I wouldn't get
too worried unless this goes on for more
days than your normal period.
