Back pain after IUD is a common side effect and is a reaction of the body to the rejection of the birth control ring.
After the IUD is placed in the uterine cavity, the body rejects the foreign body, resulting in irritating contractions of the uterus and the release of prostaglandins, which may be painful. If the birth control ring is too large a model, or if it is placed in a downward-facing position, it can lead to back pain.
If the vulva or the IUD is not strictly sterilized when the IUD is placed, an inflammatory reaction can occur after it is placed in the uterine cavity, causing low back pain.
In addition, some women do not get enough rest after placing the IUD and do physical labor too early, which may easily lead to increased abdominal pressure or displacement of the IUD, resulting in symptoms of back pain.
Lower back pain after the IUD will be relieved naturally within 3 months. If the pain is severe or prolonged, you should go to the hospital to have a checkup to identify the cause and have it treated under the doctor’s guidance.
