So, what kind of discomfort symptoms will women experience after having an IUD inserted? Let’s find out together below.

What discomfort will I feel after inserting the IUD?

The "ring" is also known as the birth control ring, abbreviated as IUD. It is placed in the uterine cavity of the woman and achieves the purpose of abortion contraception through reflex stimulation and the influence of compounds. It does not inhibit ovulation and does not affect the female endocrine system, thus avoiding the side effects of general drug contraceptives. After years of practical improvement, the IUDs currently used in clinical medicine are mostly copper-containing or medicated IUDs. The support frame materials are plastic, high-pressure polyethylene, memory alloy, etc., and the shapes are not single, including ring, T-shaped, V-shaped, Y-shaped and chain-shaped. Contraceptive rings made of different materials and in different shapes have their own characteristics, so they can be suitable for women with different physical fitness and needs. Generally speaking, the common discomfort after inserting the IUD mainly includes the following situations:

1. Bleeding: Most people will experience more or less bleeding after having an IUD inserted. In addition to increased menstrual volume, there will also be spotting and bloody vaginal discharge after menstruation. For most people, this will gradually improve and recover after a period of time. The uterine wall is compressed by the ring, which can cause local hematoma, edema, and even necrosis, resulting in ulcers and bleeding at the stress-bearing position. This condition is not suitable for a small number of people. Generally, it can be cured after a period of time, and of course it can be recovered quickly through treatment.

2. Lower abdominal distension and pain or back pain: After the IUD is inserted, a few women also have this feeling. Many problems can cause uterine contractions, resulting in mild lower abdominal distension and pain or back pain.

3. Infection: Inserting an IUD can cause infection. When inserting an IUD, the doctor will strictly disinfect the woman’s private parts, vagina, and uterine wall, and infection rarely occurs. For women who have a history of genital inflammation in the past, or who have sexual intercourse too early or indulge in excessive sexual activity after having the IUD inserted, infection may occur.

4. The tail thread is too solid or of inappropriate length: it may cause pain during intercourse or even piercing of men. You need to ask your doctor to cut the tail thread until it is only inside the cervical canal.
