What are the effects of rings on the body?

IUD insertion is a relatively common method of contraception. Simply put, it is to place the IUD in the female's uterus to achieve the purpose of contraception. This method is currently a relatively common method of contraception. If you want to have a child, you can take out the IUD and it will not affect the normal pregnancy of women. So what effects does the IUD have on the body? The following is an introduction to the effects of IUD insertion on women.

What are the effects of having an IUD on women?

1. The main complication of intrauterine contraceptive ring placement is bleeding. The main symptoms are excessive menstrual flow, prolonged menstrual period, irregular menstrual bleeding, etc. If there is heavy bleeding, abdominal pain, or fever, you should go to a medical institution for diagnosis and treatment.

2. Do not do heavy physical labor within a week and rest in bed within three days. Exerting too much force can cause bleeding and inflammation.

3. Bathing and sexual intercourse are prohibited within half a month after the operation.

4. Within 3 months after placement, pay attention to less activity and avoid heavy physical activities, including walking around for a long time, sitting or standing for a long time, etc. If the menstrual flow is likely to increase, you should pay attention to whether the contraceptive device falls off during menstruation. Do not have sex or take a bath in a tub if there is vaginal bleeding.

5. If any of the following situations occur, go to the hospital for diagnosis and treatment immediately: severe abdominal pain, fever, pelvic pain, and increased vaginal discharge. Menstruation has not stopped or there is a possibility of pregnancy, the IUD has fallen out, there is pain during sexual intercourse, there is excessive bleeding or irregular bleeding or bleeding that does not stop, etc.

The principle of IUD

1. The mechanism of human pregnancy is that the female ovary releases an egg, the egg is fertilized in the ampulla of the fallopian tube, and then develops into an embryo (morula) in the fallopian tube. The embryo is then released into the uterus to implant and grow. Contraception is about blocking any of these steps.

2. The contraceptive principle of the IUD is: when an embryo wants to implant in the uterus, the constantly moving IUD scrapes the uterine wall, causing aseptic inflammation of the uterus, making it impossible for the embryo to implant and conceive normally in the uterus, thereby causing miscarriage to achieve the purpose of contraception. The essence of an intrauterine contraceptive device (IUD) is a long-term, mild abortion procedure using curettage and abortion, and it is the first choice for post-marriage contraception for Chinese women.

Because the IUD needs to be placed in the uterus, many women will not choose this method of contraception. With the continuous development of medical equipment, there are already many different types of contraceptive methods, rather than using a method that causes discomfort to the body to achieve the purpose of contraception. Therefore, whether to use an IUD depends on whether your physical condition is suitable. If necessary, you can choose according to the doctor's advice.

How to prevent the ring from falling off after insertion

1. Avoid sexual intercourse within one month and pay attention to the cleanliness of the vulva to prevent infection.

2. It is normal to experience lower abdominal discomfort within 3 to 6 months after the IUD is inserted. Pay attention to the menstrual regularity and go to the hospital for regular gynecological examinations.

3. Avoid taking a bath in a tub within half a month to prevent vaginal infection, but you can take a shower or a sponge bath.

4. It is strictly forbidden to participate in heavy physical labor within one week after the IUD is inserted. Please note that you should take a full rest within 3 days after the IUD is inserted, and it is best to rest in bed.

5. Underwater work and jumping exercises, such as track and field sports, water sports, and fast-paced dancing, are prohibited within one month. In order to avoid the ring from falling off, it is recommended that women should go to the hospital regularly to check the position of the ring, follow the doctor's instructions after the ring is inserted, and pay attention to rest to prevent the ring from falling off, affecting contraception and causing greater impact on the body.

When is the best time to get a ring?

1. Within seven days after the end of menstruation

The endometrium is still in the growth stage at this time, and the minor damage caused by the IUD can be eliminated in a short time. In addition, since the cervix is ​​tighter at this time, the "ring" is less likely to fall off. However, please note that you cannot have sex before the IUD is inserted.

2. After artificial abortion

If a woman needs to have an abortion due to an unexpected pregnancy, she can have an IUD inserted immediately after the abortion. Completing the two major operations at one time is not only convenient, but also makes women feel more at ease.

3. 7 days after spontaneous abortion and menstruation resumes

Women who experience spontaneous abortion can have an IUD inserted within 7 days of the resumption of menstruation.

4. Six weeks after normal delivery

Women who give birth naturally can have an IUD inserted during their six-week checkup. At this time, the uterus is almost the same size as before pregnancy, and the cervix is ​​not too tight, making it easier to insert an IUD.
