How long after a caesarean section should I wear the ring?

In China, where family planning has been popularized for so many years, many mothers after giving birth will think about responding to the national call and using an IUD for contraception. But for some new mothers who have had a caesarean section, when is the best time to insert an IUD, because the new mother after the caesarean section is not only very weak but also has a traumatic body. The contraceptive ring placed in the uterus may have an impact on the body. So when is the best time to get the ring?

Let's talk about what many new mothers are concerned about: how long after a caesarean section can an IUD be inserted? What should you pay attention to?

1. The contraceptive ring placed in the uterus is a "foreign body" to the uterus, especially when the ring is too large or positioned low. The uterus contracts to expel this "foreign body", causing uterine contraction pain, which is clinically manifested as lower abdominal pain and back pain.

2. A small amount of bleeding in a short period of time after the placement of the ring is due to the abrasion of the endometrium when the contraceptive ring is placed. The bleeding usually lasts for several days, and the amount of blood does not exceed the menstrual volume, so no treatment is required.

How long after a caesarean section can I have an IUD inserted? How long after a caesarean section can I have sex? Since women's bodies are relatively weak after a caesarean section, they have to wait until their bodies recover before having an IUD inserted. In addition, sexual intercourse should be prohibited for a certain period of time after a caesarean section. This is because the mother's body undergoes significant physiological changes after delivery, especially the reproductive organs, which undergo changes and trauma during pregnancy and childbirth. It will take some time for them to return to normal. The couple can have sex only after the mother has fully recovered.

Therefore, for caesarean section, it is best to have sex after 3 months. This deadline is considered from the perspective of the recovery of female reproductive organs and the complete healing of surgical wounds. Now that we know the best time to insert an IUD for a caesarean section, under normal circumstances, the best time to choose an IUD is within 7 days after the menstruation ends and without sexual intercourse. Patients with acute or chronic pelvic inflammatory disease, vaginitis, or sexually transmitted diseases should not have the IUD inserted. They should wait until they are cured and choose the right time to have the IUD inserted according to the doctor's advice. This is the most critical point to note before having the IUD inserted.

After the above introduction on how long to wear an IUD after a caesarean section, I believe many new mothers should understand the best time to wear an IUD. You should know that caesarean section is a challenge for pregnant women. For women, if they do not take good care of themselves after delivery, it will have adverse effects on their future health. Wearing a ring is also an issue that requires careful consideration of timing.
