Which is better, IUD or ligation?

IUD and sterilization are two different methods of contraception. The IUD can be removed, and then the body can be taken care of and pregnancy can still be achieved, but after sterilization, successful conception can no longer be achieved, so everyone should choose according to their own requirements. If you don't want to have children anymore, it is best to choose sterilization, which can reduce the side effects of IUD insertion, and IUD insertion is likely to cause gynecological diseases.

1. Different contraceptive principles

1. Sheung Wan

The scientific name of the "ring" is intrauterine device, abbreviated as IUD. The IUD is a ring-shaped device with a rope tied at the bottom that is placed inside the uterus. When the baby wants to implant in the uterus, the ring will constantly scrape the uterine wall, causing aseptic inflammation of the uterus, which will prevent the baby from implanting. This abortion-like method of contraception does not suppress ovulation or affect the mother's endocrine system, thus avoiding the adverse reactions of general contraceptive drugs. The materials are generally plastic, polyethylene, memory alloy, etc., and there are also various shapes, including round, T-shaped, V-shaped, Y-shaped and chain-shaped, etc., with a long duration.

2. Ligation

For ligation, an incision is first made in the abdomen, the isthmus of the fallopian tube is cut, and then tied or clamped. This prevents the egg from meeting the sperm normally, thus avoiding pregnancy at the source. However, sterilization is permanent sterilization, and fertility generally will not be restored, so it may be very difficult to have a baby in the future.

Second, the difference in side effects

1. Sheung Wan

1) Rejection

After all, the IUD is a foreign body to the uterus, and the damage to the endometrium will lead to a small amount of vaginal bleeding in the short term after the IUD is inserted, and the amount of bleeding will not exceed the amount of menstruation.

2) Irregular menstruation

After all, it will have an impact on the uterus, and it is easy to have irregular menstruation after the IUD is inserted. This is also because the IUD stimulates the endometrium to produce a chemical reaction, causing local coagulation disorders. In addition, if the IUD contains copper ions, the copper ions have cytotoxic and hemolytic effects, which will cause excessive menstrual bleeding.

3) IUD misplacement

The scraping of the uterus by the IUD may cause uterine perforation for the fragile uterine wall, giving the IUD a chance to pass through the hole into the abdomen and become dislocated, endangering the health of other organs.

4) Ectopic pregnancy

IUD insertion is not an absolute contraceptive, it is only effective for intrauterine pregnancy. However, the result will be that the baby will choose to implant in other parts of the uterus, resulting in an ectopic pregnancy. Ectopic pregnancy is a very dangerous type of pregnancy.

2. Ligation

1) My aunt has severe back pain

After ligation, the original lower back pain during menstruation may worsen, but if you also experience severe abdominal pain, your physical strength is not as good as before, and you are easily tired, please seek medical attention in time.

2) Menstrual disorders

Not only IUD insertion has this problem, but sterilization can also easily lead to irregular menstruation and menstrual disorders.

3) Ovarian abnormalities

The ligation surgery may damage the blood vessels in the ovaries, resulting in a decrease in pituitary stimulating hormone, affecting ovarian function and possibly causing abnormalities.

4) Mood swings

After vasectomy, the body's hormone secretion changes, causing people to become irritable and sensitive, suffer from memory loss, become easily nervous, and become pessimistic and negative.

3. Which is better, IUD or ligation?

IUD insertion is a contraceptive method that you can regret after having. If you want to have a baby someday, you can remove the IUD and get pregnant again. However, sterilization is a method that blocks all roads at once and is irreversible for the mother. Therefore, no matter which method you choose, it will be harmful to the mother's body, so please be cautious.
