Is wearing a ring good for your health?

We all know that an IUD is an IUD that is inserted into the female uterus to prevent pregnancy. In fact, this contraceptive method is relatively backward and causes great harm to the female uterus. It also has loopholes. Even if a woman is pregnant, she may still get pregnant, and even an ectopic pregnancy may occur. Moreover, if the IUD is not worn properly and disinfected, other diseases may occur. So, is it better for women to wear an IUD or not?

1. Uterine perforation: The mechanism by which IUD insertion causes uterine perforation is not clear. It is generally believed that it may be caused by the inappropriate size of the uterus or improper operation by the doctor. In addition, when women exercise vigorously, the IUD in their body may cause damage to the uterus due to physical inertia. Unexplained uterine contractions may also squeeze the IUD and cause uterine perforation.

2. Damage to other organs: In rare cases, the intrauterine contraceptive device may cause uterine perforation and enter the abdominal cavity, thus causing the device to become dislocated. The IUD may be ectopically located in the bladder, pelvis, or mesentery.

3. Excessive menstrual flow: Some intrauterine contraceptive devices contain copper ions, which have cytotoxic and hemolytic effects, thus causing excessive menstrual flow. This is a normal phenomenon.

4. Ectopic pregnancy: If the embryo implants in the fallopian tube and does not reach the uterus, the result is an ectopic pregnancy. The contraceptive principle of the intrauterine device is to change the environment inside the uterus to cause miscarriage. It only works locally in the uterus, so it can only prevent normal pregnancy in the uterus, but cannot prevent ectopic pregnancy.

5. Endometrial fibrosis: Intrauterine contraceptive devices are essentially foreign bodies in the human body. It is common medical knowledge that foreign bodies in the human body can cause mechanical damage to local tissues, chronic inflammation, and fibrotic lesions. Ten to twelve years after the IUD is inserted, fibrosis will occur in the endometrium.

6. Pregnancy with an IUD: Pregnancy with an IUD is also called pregnancy with an implant. Since the contraceptive success rate of intrauterine devices is lower than that of oral contraceptives and sterilization, women should still take precautions after getting the device to prevent pregnancy while wearing it.

7. Soreness: Some women will experience soreness or discomfort in the lower abdomen or lower back after the IUD is placed. This is because the contraceptive ring placed in the uterus is a "foreign body" to the uterus. Especially when it is too large or positioned low, the uterus contracts to expel this "foreign body", causing uterine contraction pain.
