Do I need anesthesia to remove the IUD?

Women have different perceptions of pain. Some have a very good tolerance for pain, so removing the IUD is not a big problem. But there are also many women who are very worried about pain. Removing the IUD puts too much pressure on women physically and mentally. So, can anesthesia be given when removing the IUD?

Can I have anesthesia when taking out the IUD?

Generally, anesthesia is not required to remove the IUD. However, if you are really afraid of pain, you can do it under anesthesia. Removing the IUD refers to the IUD that has been inserted. The function of the IUD is to prevent pregnancy during the growth period. After entering menopause (45 years old), the probability of pregnancy is almost zero, and the side effects of the ring are obviously manifested. The IUD should be removed in time.

Generally speaking, the pain caused by removing the IUD is within the acceptable range for women, but for the sake of their own health, it is recommended that everyone choose painless removal. There will be no pain during the operation, but there may be mild lower abdominal discomfort, back pain or a small amount of vaginal bleeding on the day of removing the IUD. This is normal and these symptoms will disappear after a period of adjustment.

The best time to remove the IUD is within 3 to 7 days after the menstrual period is over, which can reduce bleeding. There is a certain period of use for IUDs. When some women who have had IUDs inserted reach a certain period of time, they need to have the IUDs removed. Many women will not find any abnormalities after removing the IUD, but the possibility of exceptions cannot be ruled out. Some women experience bleeding after removing the IUD. There may be a small amount of vaginal bleeding or bloody leucorrhea, which usually disappears on its own in a day or two. This is because the removal of the IUD stimulates the uterine wall and cervix, which is a normal condition. However, if the vaginal bleeding is heavy or the bleeding time is long, it is an abnormal condition and you should see a doctor immediately.
