HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

Menstrual bleeding can be reduced or changed with the IUD.

In some women, more blood can be seen with urination than what is seen on a sanitary napkin or tampon.

If you remain concerned however, you should see your doctor for an assessment.

I hope this helps
