A member asked:
Does coppert non-hormonal iud cause continuous spotting extending to a month, with a history of insulin resistant pcod?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Initially normal: The copper T does not interact with any of the hormonal regulation and pathways of the body or any metabolic processes. It is normal to have unusual spotting or cramping in the first month but eventually calms down. After a year plus you may have no periods at all.
