Abnormal Uterine Bleeding
"I got this to try to help with heavy periods and weird pains I have been having lately. The first time it was inserted, in April, it was in for about 2 weeks before it expelled while on my period. I had it inserted the second time on May 4th, and it stayed in through that period. Because it expelled the first time while having large blood clots I abstained from using tampons this time to allow flow. I made it through my first period with the i.u.d. intact, continuing to bleed that whole month. I believe I may of gotten my second period around April 27th but hard to tell since I bled every day. On June 4th, the second i.u.d. expelled as well, also with a blood clot. Not sure how this can help with heavy periods if they force the i.u.d.s out."
