Some pregnant women ask to wear an IUD after giving birth. So how long after giving birth should the pregnant woman wear the IUD? If the IUD is worn too early, it will affect the woman's postpartum recovery. So when is the most appropriate time for a woman to wear the IUD? There is a certain difference between normal delivery and cesarean section, so if the IUD is worn within the specified time, it will be beneficial to the quickest recovery after delivery. It is generally recommended to insert an IUD 42 days after a normal birth, and six months after a caesarean section. Although breastfeeding women do not have their periods, they may still be pregnant, which is what people usually call a "hidden pregnancy". Therefore, women who have not had their periods after giving birth should first ask a doctor to check whether they are pregnant. The IUD can only be inserted after it is confirmed that they are not pregnant. It is worth noting that when you go to the hospital to have an IUD inserted, you must tell the doctor clearly that you are breastfeeding. It is more appropriate to insert the IUD within 3 to 7 days after the menstruation ends. If there is gynecological inflammation, it should be treated actively and the IUD can be inserted only after the inflammation is cured. Regular check-ups should be done after the IUD is inserted. In addition, sexual intercourse is prohibited within three weeks after the IUD is inserted. Please note that you should take a full rest within 3 days of the IUD insertion, and it is best to rest in bed. Avoid bathing in a tub within four weeks to prevent vaginal infection. However, showers and sponge baths are available. At the same time, pay attention to the cleanliness of the vulva to prevent infection. You must choose the most correct time to wear an IUD after childbirth. It is definitely not good to wear it too early. You also need to have a physical examination when wearing the IUD. If you have other gynecological diseases, you must first treat the diseases. You also need to go to a regular hospital when wearing the IUD, and make sure you are not pregnant. |
