My partner mentioned to me that I had a funny ish smell down there (usually I don't smell) and I checked inside and this was the discharge that I found inside. I had an IUD fitted a little around 2wks ago, could this be a sign of infection?

Question

Answer

With an IuD you're more likely to get yeast infections and bacteria vaginosis (I know myself😏) easily treated. You can reduce the chances of getting them by always washing after sex, peeing after sex is a must! Try and wear underwear where you're able to breath down there. When I started to doing all this, I definitely noticed I stopped getting them so regularly. I've had iud for 5 years this year. 😁 xx

Answer

Its always good to see your doctor just to be sure. I had this same problem/symptoms and it turns out I had an IUD infection and cervicitis. My IUD had to be removed the same day and I was started on Antibiotics. My doctor said it's a common thing he's seen with IUDs, just wish i knew that before getting it 🙄🤷🏾‍♀️.

Answer

Got the same issue! Really want to know what this means. 😯

Answer

Could be just a yeast infection...sometimes the IUD makes it smell a little odd during different phases of your cycle.

Maybe you have a yeast infection
