Is it painful to remove the Mirena ring?

In daily life, many women choose to have the Mirena ring inserted in their uterus after suffering from some gynecological diseases. Although the gynecological symptoms are significantly improved after insertion, its maximum service life is five years. If it is not removed in time after that, women will experience adverse symptoms such as decreased menstrual volume or menopause and rapid decline. Some women will also experience abdominal pain and bloating. At this time, you must go to the hospital and ask a professional gynecologist to remove the Mirena ring.

I have been wearing the Mirena ring for five years. It will only be slightly painful when removing it, not too serious and within the tolerance range of everyone. There is no need to inject anesthetics, and there is no need to worry too much, because the Mirena ring itself has a tail thread. After a professional gynecologist finds the tail thread, he can pull the Mirena ring outwards and it will fall out of the uterus. This is a very fast process and only takes more than ten minutes. However, women must undergo some relevant gynecological examinations in advance when going to the hospital to remove the Mirena IUD.

When removing the Mirena ring, women need to have a gynecological examination in advance, and the most important thing is to have a gynecological color ultrasound, so that the doctor can clearly know the specific location of the Mirena ring in the woman's uterus, and also determine whether it has deformed or damaged the woman's uterine wall. In addition, before removing the Mirena ring, you should also do a cervical and vaginal examination to see if there is any inflammation. If you suffer from cervicitis, cervical erosion, and vaginitis, you need to perform anti-inflammatory treatment first before you can remove the Mirena ring.

Women should also choose the right time to go to the hospital to remove the Mirena IUD. Under normal circumstances, they can choose to go to the hospital to remove the IUD five to seven days after the menstrual period is over. This is the time when the uterine wall is the most stable, and removing the IUD is the least painful and safest. However, if a woman has irregular menstruation due to the Mirena IUD being in place for five years and her menstrual period has not stopped for a long time, she can go to the hospital to apply for the removal of the Mirena IUD during the bleeding period and ask the doctor to provide her with relevant treatment.

Although it is not painful when the Mirena IUD is removed after 5 years, a gynecological examination must be done, and attention should be paid to hygiene after removing the Mirena IUD. It should be noted that you should not have sexual intercourse within 15 days after removing the IUD. Wash the vulva with tap water every night, change into new underwear in time, and sterilize the changed underwear with high temperature. This can prevent inflammation and infection of the uterus after removing the IUD, and can protect women's health.
