Does the bleeding from an IUD insertion site necessitate Ghusl, or merely re-Wudu?
Source: FtawySummarized from the full answer at Ftawy · imported Sep 2, 2026
The IUD is prohibited unless there is a necessity. Contraception is permissible under certain conditions. If the IUD causes bleeding (hemorrhage), it nullifies ablution (wudu') and necessitates purification (') and cleansing (tahara), but it does not necessitate the major ritual bath (). However, if it does not cause bleeding, the general rule is that the emitted blood is menstrual blood, except in specific cases.
