Hi,
Madam,women wearing IUD often faces this complication.
How long have you been using this device?

I suggest you to go to your gynecologist and get it examined once.
Otherwise,increased menstrual flow ll lead to anemia and generalized weakness.

So,an iron-folic acid preparation in the form of syrup or tablet would be helpful.
Get your blood hemoglobin levels checked.

Take care
