A member asked:

Bad lower abdominal pains. i have the merina iud in place. i stopped my period a while ago on the merina but now i'm getting bleeding with this pain.?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Call your doctor: The iud may cause pain sometimes. The cause of the pain may be infection, the iud may have shifted out of place. You need to seek medical help asap.
