Hello dear Greetings
Regarding your experience with pain at the back leg and foot with weight gain with decrease in vitamin D following insertion of IUD I will suggest osteoporosis due to deficiency in calcium level
When vitamin D is low calcium simultaneously becomes low
Additionally please see your physician for further clinical assessment and adequate drug prescription
I hope this helps Regards
