How many years is the best to remove the ring?

IUD is a contraceptive method that women choose after giving birth to their first child. Although the IUD can effectively prevent unwanted pregnancy, it cannot be left in the woman's body forever, otherwise it will cause damage to the uterus. When a woman wants to have a child, she has to go to the hospital for surgery to remove the IUD. In addition, women should also remove it in time when they reach menopause or reach the specified age. So when is the best time to remove the IUD?

With the arrival of menopause, the estrogen secretion of the ovaries decreases rapidly, and the uterus gradually shrinks. After menopause, the uterine cavity becomes smaller and smaller, and the uterine muscles become thinner and thinner. Over time, the ring will be partially or completely embedded in the superficial muscle layer of the uterus, making it difficult to remove the ring. If there are blood vessels where the ring is inserted, bleeding will occur. If the ring is embedded too deeply, or even penetrates the thin uterine wall and enters the abdominal cavity, a series of complications may occur, so it is very important to remove the ring in time. The ring must be removed in the following situations:

1. If the inserted ring has reached the prescribed period, you should go to the hospital to remove the ring in time to avoid deformation or failure of the ring in the uterus. Generally, metal rings can be stored for 20 years, silicone rubber V-rings can be stored for 7-10 years, and copper sleeve T-rings can be stored for 10-15 years. A new ring can be put in while removing the ring.

2. If there are adverse reactions such as irregular vaginal bleeding or continued excessive menstrual flow after the IUD is placed, which affect your health, the IUD should be removed promptly if drug treatment is ineffective.

3. If there are obvious changes in the menstrual cycle during menopause, such as the cycle becomes longer or menopause lasts for more than 6 months, the ring should be removed in time.

Before removing the ring, you should first undergo an X-ray fluoroscopy or "B" type ultrasound examination. For a ring with a tail thread, you can ask the doctor to dilate the vaginal opening to see if there is any nylon thread outside the uterine opening to confirm that the ring is in the uterine cavity before removing the ring. The best time to remove the IUD is within 3-7 days after the menstruation ends to reduce bleeding. Rest for 1 day after removing the IUD. Avoid sexual intercourse and taking a bath in a toilet within 2 weeks to prevent infection.
