definition

Intrauterine contraceptive devices are generally made of antiseptic plastic or metal, and some are added with some drugs (such as those that can release female hormones or indomethacin, etc.). There are many shapes of uterine rings, such as round, uterine cavity-shaped, T-shaped, etc. Doctors can choose the appropriate uterine ring according to the condition of each person's uterus.

principle

After the uterine ring is placed into the uterine cavity, it changes the environment inside the uterine cavity, causing inflammation of the uterus, which is not conducive to embryo implantation, thereby causing early miscarriage to achieve the purpose of contraception. The effectiveness of contraception using an IUD is approximately 94-99%, second only to oral contraceptives, sterilization, implants, condoms and contraceptive injections.

advantage

The use of intrauterine devices (IUDs) as a non-permanent contraceptive method dates back to ancient times, but it was only in this century that it developed into an effective contraceptive tool and was widely used around the world. Since Scott reported in 1968 that critical illness and death were associated with intrauterine devices, a large number of studies have reported the risks of this contraceptive method to users in the past decade, among which pelvic inflammatory disease (PID), uterine perforation, ectopic pregnancy (commonly known as ectopic pregnancy), spontaneous abortion or infectious abortion are particularly important complications. The IUD is a long-acting method of contraception that is effective for one to several years. You can get pregnant again after the doctor removes the IUD. After inserting the ring, there is no need to do any preparation before sexual intercourse. Women who wear the ring will not feel the presence of the ring, so it is suitable for women who need regular contraception.
