What should you pay attention to after removing the IUD?

The IUD is an effective pregnancy prevention measure to prevent women from becoming pregnant. The IUD is a contraceptive measure that places a contraceptive device in the uterine cavity to prevent the fertilized egg from implanting. Generally speaking, women who undergo IUD surgery are already pregnant and they do this surgery to prevent pregnancy again. Of course, if a woman who has undergone an IUD surgery wants to have children again, she only needs to remove the IUD to have children again. So what should you pay attention to after removing the IUD?

1. There will be a small amount of vaginal bleeding and lower abdominal discomfort after the IUD removal, which usually disappears naturally within a week and does not require treatment. If the amount of vaginal bleeding exceeds the amount of menstruation, or the bleeding continues after half a month, or there is severe abdominal pain, fever, etc., you should seek medical attention in time. Pay attention to the cleanliness of the vulva. Wash the vulva with clean water every night, and do not wash the vagina with your hands.

2. Rest for one day after removing the IUD. Avoid sexual intercourse, bathing, swimming and sauna for 2 weeks. Avoid heavy physical activities and eat nutritious food.

3. Take medicine regularly according to the doctor's prescription after removing the IUD

4. Observe your physical condition. Carefully observe your physical condition after the IUD is removed. If you experience abnormal conditions such as fever, abdominal pain, or heavy bleeding, seek medical attention immediately.

6. Bathing in a tub is prohibited. Women should not take a bath in the tub for 2 weeks after the IUD is removed.

8. Keep the vulva clean. Wash the vulva with clean water every night, and avoid washing the vagina with your hands.
