treatment. Pain may be a physiological response to the presence of the IUD, but if the pain persists contact your doctor to rule out the possibility of infection or improper positioning of the IUD. • Genital tract infection / PID: During the first month® after insertion there may be a small risk of a genital tract infection. There may be a risk of PID (Pelvic Inflammatory disease), which is an infection that affects the uterus, fallopian tubes and nearby organs. PID is most likely to occur in the first 20 days after insertion of Mona Lisa® 10. Exposure to sexually transmitted infections (STIs), and not the use of IUD itself, is responsible for PID occurring after the first month of use. The incidence of PID among intrauterine devices users is less than 2 episodes per 1000 years of use, which is similar to that of the general population. PID is treated with antibiotics, but if left untreated, PID can cause serious problems such as infertility. Contact your doctor if you have abdominal or pelvic pain, painful sex, unusual or bad smelling vaginal discharge, chills, heavy bleeding, or fever.
