What should I pay attention to after the IUD is removed?

At present, the contraceptive surgery strategy for many women is to achieve the effect of contraceptive surgery by inserting an IUD. However, since the physical pressure of the IUD on different women is different, some female friends will have obvious discomfort, resulting in the occurrence of serious symptoms, and they need to be removed immediately. So what are the common problems after the contraceptive ring is removed?

Common problems after the IUD is removed

1. In the first month after the ring is inserted, some women may experience breakthrough bleeding or spotting, which sometimes recurs in the following months. Some women may experience prolonged menstruation and menorrhagia, especially in the first 1 to 3 menstrual cycles. These are all normal conditions and do not require special treatment. They can be gradually repaired in the future. If the bleeding lasts too long, you can take antibiotics appropriately to prevent infection, and go to the hospital for medical treatment if necessary.

2. You need to rest for 2 days after the IUD placement surgery and 1 day after the IUD removal surgery. It is not suitable to do too much physical work within 1 week after the placement of the contraceptive ring, especially squatting labor, to avoid increased bleeding or the contraceptive ring falling off.

3. If some women have entered menopause, have menstrual disorders or have already reached menopause, they should remove the IUD, preferably within one year after menopause. When the IUD is removed after menopause for more than one year, due to ovarian decline, low estrogen levels, shrinkage of the vaginal mucosa, and gradual shrinkage of the uterus, the difficulty and risk of surgery will be increased.

4. After the IUD is placed, check the IUD once after the first menstrual period and three months later. After that, you need to have the IUD inserted once a year and have a gynecological examination once a year to determine whether the IUD has fallen off.

5. Within 3 months after the IUD removal surgery, if there is a lot of blood during menstruation or bowel movement, you should pay attention to check whether the IUD has fallen off, and pay attention to maintaining smooth bowel movements.

6. After removing the IUD, you should maintain daily vaginal cleanliness and wash your genitals with warm water every day without getting cold.

7. Do not have sexual intercourse, take a bath or sit bath within half a month after removing the IUD, or prevent infection and inflammation, which is not conducive to early recovery after removing the IUD. This is also one of the common problems of removing the IUD.

8. Pay attention to nutrition and eat more iron-rich foods to avoid anemia caused by excessive menstrual flow.
