The harm of IUD to women

For young people today, the cost of pregnancy and childbirth is too high, so many couples choose to have women have intrauterine devices inserted. An IUD is a contraceptive device that is surgically inserted into a woman's uterus. The harm of IUD insertion is relatively greater for women, because there is a possibility of infection during the operation, infection after the operation, and there is a certain chance of ectopic pregnancy after the insertion. IUD insertion will also affect the female body and cause abdominal pain.

Generally speaking, wearing an IUD is harmless, but for some women, especially those with sensitive constitutions, there will be rejection. For some women, wearing an IUD will affect their sexual life, prolong their menstrual period each month, and may also be accompanied by back soreness or back pain.

First of all, it definitely comes from mental harm. Put something in your body and try to see how it feels. Whether it is forced or voluntary, having an IUD inserted into the body will cause women to have certain psychological barriers. To put it bluntly, it just feels awkward.

The harm to women's body can be divided into three main aspects. On the one hand, it is easy to cause gynecological diseases. Although most of them have undergone strict medical treatment, they are still easy to cause gynecological diseases. On the second hand, it is easy to cause irregular menstruation, dysmenorrhea and other phenomena, making women suffer greater pain during each menstrual period. The last aspect is that long-term placement of contraceptive rings can easily cause pain in the waist and abdomen, especially on rainy days, this phenomenon is more serious.

As for the harm to fertility, the IUD is implanted inside the uterus, which can easily cause ectopic pregnancy in women. Ectopic pregnancy is the formation of an embryo in the fallopian tube, which is very harmful to women. If surgery is not performed in time, it may even endanger their lives. Moreover, wearing an IUD for a long time may cause infertility.

Generally speaking, there are two main common side effects after IUD insertion. The first one is bleeding.

Most people will experience more or less bleeding after having an IUD inserted. In addition to an increase in menstrual blood volume, there will also be spotting after menstruation and bloody vaginal discharge. Most people will gradually get better and return to normal after a period of time. The compression of the endometrium by the contraceptive ring can cause local congestion, edema, and even necrosis, forming ulcers and bleeding in the compressed area. This condition is related to the inadaptability of a small number of people. Generally, it can heal itself after a period of time. Of course, it can also recover quickly through treatment. In your case, it is recommended that you go to the hospital's obstetrics and gynecology department for examination in time and then treat the symptoms.

Some women who use intrauterine contraceptive devices may experience side effects such as bleeding, pain, secondary infection, and reproductive tract damage due to the mechanical pressure of the device, among which uterine bleeding is the most common. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that uterine bleeding after the placement of an intrauterine contraceptive device is caused by damage to the Chong and Ren meridians, disharmony of Qi and blood, blood stasis, and stagnation of dampness and heat, and treatment should be based on syndrome differentiation. Generally, different Chinese medicines can be selected for treatment according to the following symptoms.
