The best time to remove the ring

I believe everyone has heard of the contraceptive ring, right? The contraceptive ring is a safe, simple and effective contraceptive device. It is accepted by everyone because it does not affect the body functions and does not affect sexual life. However, when the IUD has expired, about one year after menopause, or when you want to have a child and use other contraceptive measures, or when the side effects caused by the IUD are severe and ineffective after treatment, you should consider removing the IUD. So when is the best time to remove the IUD? Let’s take a look at it together.

1. The best time to remove the IUD is within 3-7 days after the menstruation is over. Sexual intercourse and bathing are prohibited 3 days before and 2 weeks after removal to prevent bleeding and infection. Bloody leucorrhea or a little bleeding after removal will disappear naturally after 1-2 days. If bleeding is heavy, lasts for a long time, or there is lower abdominal pain, timely diagnosis and treatment should be sought. ?

2. After the intrauterine contraceptive device is removed, the anti-fertility effect disappears, the endometrium returns to normal, and it will not affect the development of the fetus. In order to allow time for the endometrium to repair after the intrauterine device is removed, it is better to use other methods of contraception (except drug contraception) for 1-3 months before becoming pregnant. ?

3. It is best to remove the IUD after menopause. If the IUD is removed too early, you may become pregnant again due to unstable endocrine conditions. If the IUD is removed too late, uterine atrophy will make it difficult to remove the IUD. In addition, it is advisable for menopausal women to remove the IUD six months to one year after menopause, because although the estrogen level has dropped at this time, the uterus has not yet shrunk significantly. Not only is the IUD removal process simple, but it is also less painful. Menopausal women should never neglect to remove the IUD in time for fear of trouble, which will lead to a lot of avoidable pain.

4. IUD removal surgery can also be divided into two types: ordinary IUD removal and painless IUD removal, but most hospitals currently promote painless IUD removal. Although it is a common outpatient surgery, it is an operation on the uterine cavity after all, so pain is inevitable. If you choose painless IUD removal, it can be performed under local anesthesia and women will not feel any pain. ?

At the same time, women are reminded not to underestimate the IUD removal surgery, as it can still pose a threat to women's health if they are not careful, inducing inflammation, infertility, etc.

The above article has carefully explained the best time to remove the IUD. I believe everyone understands it. When we consider removing the contraceptive ring, we must pay attention to the best time to remove it.
