Skyla iud inserted 1/16/17. cramps/spotting (& brown discharge) haven't resolved. woke up due to severe cramping and pain. normal after iud insertion?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Can get checked: Bleeding and spotting is typical in the first month after and IUD insertion. The Progesterone in Skyla competes with the uterine lining leading to some spotting. Pain is not typical. Your pain may or may not be related to your IUD. The best thing to do is to schedule a follow up visit and have your doctor evaluate you.
