What should I do if I had sex the day before IUD insertion?

There are many different types of contraceptive measures available today, including birth control rings, condoms, and emergency contraception. When women are not ready to have a baby, they should choose an effective and safe contraceptive method to prevent themselves from getting pregnant. The contraceptive method of wearing an IUD is very convenient and has a long duration, so it is warmly welcomed by many women. So, what should you do if you have sex the day before having an IUD?

Before putting on the IUD, you are not allowed to have sex within five days. Since sexual intercourse will cause friction on the woman's vagina and may also cause impact on the uterus, this is very bad for IUD surgery. So that the contraceptive ring can fully play its greater role, if you have had sex the day before the contraceptive ring is inserted, you don't need to insert the contraceptive ring the next day. Women also need to choose a time to wear the IUD, which should be 3-7 days after the menstrual period is over.

If you have sex the day before the IUD is inserted, it is likely to cause bleeding while the IUD is in place. In addition, sexual intercourse before the ring is placed can easily allow bacteria to invade the vagina and uterus, which may cause infection. If it is serious, it may make the contraceptive ring unable to be placed. Even if the contraceptive ring is successfully placed, it is likely to become infected due to sexual intercourse the day before, which will affect the effectiveness of the contraceptive measure. Therefore, before the IUD is placed, you must not have sexual intercourse, and the IUD placement surgery should be performed five days after sexual intercourse.

After the IUD operation, some women also have vaginal bleeding. In order to avoid postoperative infection and maintain physical and mental health, it is best not to have sex at this time.

Women can have sex about ten days after the IUD is inserted, but it should be noted that the medical care after the IUD is inserted should be taken seriously to avoid the IUD falling off and causing unmarried pregnancy.

Women should refer to their own unique situation and combine the doctor's advice, so that they can have a good first sexual life after the IUD is inserted.

It is not recommended for women to have sexual intercourse within one week after the IUD is inserted.

The IUD is the most common long-term contraceptive method for women of childbearing age in my country. It is placed in the uterine cavity of pregnant women, and achieves the purpose of miscarriage prevention through reflex stimulation and the influence of chemicals. Usually, a ring is placed in the body for more than ten years. IUD insertion itself is a minimally invasive surgery, placing a foreign body in the uterus, and requires a full process for the human body to adapt.
