How long after pregnancy can I have sex?

IUD insertion is a long-term contraceptive method, but now that the country has relaxed the two-child policy, many families who did not want children before are now starting to consider having a second child. Once the IUD is removed, fertility will be restored. However, you cannot have sex immediately after the IUD is removed. You need to rest for a while after the operation. So, how long after pregnancy can you have sex? Let’s take a look below.

It is strictly forbidden to have sexual intercourse within two weeks after the removal of the IUD, because the irritated endometrium has not healed yet in a short period of time after the removal of the IUD. Having sexual intercourse at this time will cause inflammation of the wound, thereby inducing other inflammations, and it is also very likely to get infected and suffer from gynecological diseases. Moreover, having sexual intercourse before waiting for the endometrium to heal will aggravate the damage to the endometrium, affect future conception, and affect eugenics.

Generally, you can have sex three weeks after the IUD is removed. If female friends are worried, they can go to the hospital for a check-up. If there is nothing abnormal, there is no problem with having sex, but the frequency should not be too frequent, and contraceptive measures should be taken. If both men and women have patience, it is ideal to have sex one month after the IUD is removed.

What are the precautions after removing the ring?

1. Keep your genitals clean

After removing the IUD, women should pay attention to keeping the vagina clean and hygienic, and try to wash the genitals with warm water every day. Especially in winter, pay attention to keep warm and do not catch cold.

2. Discomfort in the lower abdomen

Many women will experience lower abdominal discomfort after removing the IUD. This condition will generally disappear naturally within 1 week and does not require special treatment. However, if you find excessive vaginal bleeding and accompanied by symptoms such as abdominal pain and fever, you should seek medical attention promptly.

3. A small amount of bleeding or bloody leucorrhea

Some women will experience a small amount of vaginal bleeding or bloody leucorrhea after removing the IUD. This is caused by irritation to the endometrium and cervix when the IUD is removed. It will usually disappear naturally after 1-2 days and is a normal phenomenon. However, if there is heavy bleeding or bleeding for a long time after the IUD is removed, you should seek medical attention in time to avoid infection.

4. Don’t have sex for two weeks

After a woman has had her IUD removed, she should not have sex or try to have a baby within two weeks. At the same time, avoid sitting baths and tub baths to prevent infection and inflammation, which is not conducive to a speedy recovery after IUD removal.

5. Take medicine when necessary

For women in need, they can take appropriate amounts of anti-infection and hemostatic drugs after removing the IUD, which is beneficial to the recovery of the female body.
