Hello,
Excessive bleeding and pain are the side effects of copper T. Infection should also be ruled out with vaginal swab microscopy and culture. If bleeding is an issue, then alternate forms of contraception like Mirena IUD, birth control pills can be considered.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
