Hi there. Well, for the last year I was
on the Copper T IUD. My periods have
always been regular but my last one in
January was 9 days late. Then my most
recent one came exactly 21 days from the
last one. My periods on the Copper IUD
were heavier but it was consistent. Now I
am on day 8 of this period, I have had
clots (which are not normal for me) and
cramps still today! On Thursday I ended
up going to the ER because I thought maybe
something was wrong with my IUD. They did
an ultrasound, preg test and took my IUD
out for me. They couldnt tell why it was
irregular. They prescibed me progesterone
in case it didnt stop. It's not heavy
now, but the weird thing is it comes and
goes throughout the day and the clot thing
too and really bad lower back cramps
tonight. I also have a pain over my left
ovary but its not bad.
What could this be?
What would the ultrasound have ruled out?
I just need some advice.
(I'm 26 and have 3 children, overweight,
but otherwise good health)
Maybe built up stuff in your uterus , im
not sure, they might not have seen it by
ultrasound cuz you passed alot of clots
before . But i dont really know thats just
my opinion based on what you said. If it
continues id def be going back because if
u bleed for too long you can become weak
and stuff and thats not good either.
