Why can't I get pregnant after removing the IUD for more than a year?

In the past, many people would choose to use IUDs as a contraceptive method in order to achieve long-term contraception. But as the country relaxed the two-child policy, many families chose to have children again. In this case, you just need to remove the IUD, but the problem is that some women cannot get pregnant normally for a long time after removing the IUD, and they are very concerned about the reason. So, how come I haven’t gotten pregnant for more than a year after having my IUD removed? Let’s take a look below.

The contraceptive ring produces not only a short-term contraceptive effect by affecting the uterine cavity environment and hormone levels, but can still affect conception for a long time after the ring is removed. Therefore, female friends who plan to become pregnant after removing the IUD need 2-3 menstrual cycles (or even longer) to restore the normal physiological function of the endometrium. From the perspective of eugenics, you should not rush to get pregnant after removing the IUD. It is recommended that you go to the hospital for a pre-pregnancy check-up to assess your fertility.
