When is the best time for women to remove the IUD?

The contraceptive ring once played an important role in the family planning policy and was a common contraceptive method for women. Compared with the contraceptive method of using emergency contraception, the contraceptive ring can not only effectively prevent pregnancy, but also prevent the side effects caused by long-term use of emergency contraception. However, the placement of the contraceptive ring will also have certain effects on women's body. Some women even think that the IUD does not need to be removed after use. Is this really the case? Let's take a look at when it is better for women to remove the IUD.

After the IUD is inserted, it is not a permanent solution. It is best to use the IUD during this period.

Although the body may not be able to adapt to the IUD at the beginning and may even experience some adverse symptoms, once it is integrated, there are actually no special symptoms in the body. At this moment, some women are unwilling to undergo another surgery to remove the IUD. Is it really okay not to remove the IUD? The answer is no.

First of all, contraceptive rings also have a limited period of use. Contraceptive rings made of different materials have different usage periods. Once the usage period has expired and the contraceptive ring is not removed, it will cause harm to the human body.

Secondly, the contraceptive ring is not completely stationary in the uterus. Some of it may even move to other places. Once a woman finds that her contraceptive ring has moved, she must remove it in time, otherwise it will harm her body.

Finally, with the increase of age, the body's functions will decline, and the uterus will gradually become smaller. At this time, the contraceptive ring may be compressed by the uterus and pierce the uterus. If this happens, the damage to the female body is huge. Therefore, the insertion of the contraceptive ring is not a permanent solution and needs to be removed at the appropriate time.

Generally speaking, it is more appropriate to perform IUD removal surgery 6-12 months after a woman's menopause. If the IUD is removed too early, and if you are still in menopause, you may become pregnant. If the IUD is removed too late and the uterus begins to shrink, not only will the IUD not be removed, but it may also cause damage to the uterus. In addition, if this happens, the IUD should be removed immediately for health reasons.

1. After a woman has had an IUD inserted, if she starts planning to have a baby, she should remove the IUD six months or a year before pregnancy.

2. Abnormal conditions are found after the IUD is inserted, such as prolonged menstruation, ectopic pregnancy, etc.

3. If the contraceptive ring in your body has exceeded its usage period, it should be removed immediately. If you have not yet reached menopause and have no desire to get pregnant for the time being, you can replace it with a new contraceptive ring.

Although the contraceptive ring is a more effective method of contraception for women, it will also have many effects on women. When inserting or removing the IUD, you need to choose a reliable hospital to conduct relevant examinations, and then carry out relevant surgery after evaluation to reduce harm to the body.

Inserting an IUD is a minimally invasive procedure, but it does not cause much harm to women.

The contraceptive ring is a device placed in the uterus to prevent male sperm and egg cells from producing test tube embryos and then implanting the embryo in the uterus. The materials of the contraceptive ring mainly include plastic, silicone and metal materials. Placing an IUD in the uterus is a minor surgical procedure, but no matter how minor the procedure is, it is a minimally invasive procedure in medicine. However, no matter how minor the procedure is, it will inevitably cause certain effects on the human body.

Irregular menstruation

The contraceptive ring is a foreign object to the uterus. When it is first placed, the woman's body is definitely not suitable. The adjustment period between the uterus and the contraceptive ring also takes time. During this period, the uterine wall may be irritated by the compression caused by the contraceptive ring, resulting in menstrual irregularities such as prolonged menstruation and increased menstruation.

Back pain

The contraceptive ring is originally an "invasive substance". At first, it will make the uterus more sensitive and cause uterine contractions, so women will experience back pain, lower abdominal pain and other symptoms.

Very susceptible to infection

In the 1960s and 1980s, the use of contraceptive rings can be said to have reached its peak, but the medical level at that time was still relatively backward, and some women could only simply undergo an IUD operation in a small clinic. If a woman's vulva and vagina are not strictly disinfected, they are very susceptible to infection. Although medical standards have improved nowadays, infections still occur frequently, because some women do not pay attention to hygiene after inserting the IUD, or do it too early, or the operation process is not strictly disinfected, all of which increase the probability of infection.

Ectopic pregnancy

Don't think that placing an IUD in the uterus can be 100% contraceptive. In fact, the IUD only prevents the fusion of egg cells and sperm in the uterus, but they still have the opportunity to fuse outside the uterus to produce test tube embryos, which can easily lead to ectopic pregnancy.
