What to do if the IUD is displaced

Wearing an IUD is a very common contraceptive method in women. This contraceptive method is to insert an IUD into the female uterus. However, during the operation, it must be performed under sterile conditions, otherwise it is likely to cause gynecological diseases in women. Moreover, most IUDs have a certain shelf life and need to be taken out after the shelf life. So what should I do if the position of the IUD is offset?

The reason for displacement of the IUD is mostly due to improper selection of the ring size. Intrauterine displacement is often caused by a small ring size and a large uterine cavity. Movement of the uterine myometrium can cause the ring to move downward. Displacement of the IUD is mostly caused by a large ring size. When the uterine myometrium moves, the ring can damage the endometrium and myometrium, leading to perforation over time. To sum up, as long as the size and shape of the ring are chosen appropriately, the movement of the uterine muscle layer, including the rhythmic contraction of the uterus caused by sexual intercourse, will not cause the ring to shift. The ring position will only be affected in a few patients where the ring number is chosen inappropriately.

Inserting an intrauterine contraceptive ring can play a very good contraceptive role. If moving the IUD downward does not work, you need to remove it and replace it with a new one. The position of the IUD moves downward, which may cause increased menstrual blood flow and continuous spotting. You should maintain a regular lifestyle and rest schedule and avoid staying up late. Endocrine disorders can also cause irregular menstruation.

When the IUD is displaced, it will no longer play a contraceptive role. It may also cause symptoms such as prolonged and irregular menstruation, irregular vaginal bleeding, abdominal pain, etc., and the IUD needs to be removed. You can go to the hospital to remove the ring three to seven days after your period is over. If the ring moves downward and causes prolonged and unclean menstruation, you can also remove the ring when there is blood. After removing the ring, you must pay attention to preventing infection and get enough rest.
