Bleeding after insertion normal?

Hey!! I am 17 and I just got a copper iud inserted about a few days ago. Im constantly bleeding though, sometimes spotty and sometimes a little heavy. My doctor told me that I can have sex right away (with a condom in the first week) and I bled on him a little even though it didn’t hurt. Is bleeding normal after getting the iud inserted??
