Hello dear
Understand your concern
Do not worry, Bleeding is common for 2-3 months after inserting Copper T.

It is known side effect of copper T due to hormonal dysfunction and copper T is foreign body for uterus.
It will disappear gradually once your body will get adapted.
If bleeding will continue then you have to consult the gynecologist and

Tranexamic acid for 2-3 days should be given to reduce bleeding.
OCP and progesterone pill can be given for 2-3 week.
But continuous bleeding and feeling uncomfortable is indication of removal Copper T
and you have to use other modality of contraception like Contraceptive patch and nuvaring.

But I think your bleeding will stops with in 4-5 week as you had just 4 days after inserting copper T.

Take healthy diet., fresh fruits . grren leafy vegetables with iron supplements and maintain proper pelvic hygiene.
Hope this may help you
Best regards
Dr. Sagar
