Why does the IUD move downward? To do these things

The downward movement of the IUD is an important problem when installing an IUD, and it is one of the unexpected events of the IUD. Many people don’t know why the IUD would move downward. For this type of problem, patients should consider whether it is caused by an inappropriate IUD.

1. Reasons

The downward movement of the contraceptive ring is mainly caused by choosing an inappropriate contraceptive device or not adjusting it for a long time. In addition, factors such as loose cervical os, cervical erosion, uterine contraction, and menstrual blood flushing can cause the contraceptive ring to move downward. When the contraceptive ring moves downward, the contraceptive ring will be withdrawn from the entire uterine cavity of the woman to the lower end, which may easily lead to "pregnancy with the ring". If the contraceptive ring moves downward too far, the phenomenon of "contraceptive ring falling off" may occur. So, what should we do if the contraceptive ring moves downward?

2. Should I remove the IUD if it moves downward?

The contraceptive ring should be removed if it moves downward. After the contraceptive ring moves downward, it generally loses its contraceptive effect. To avoid unwanted pregnancy, the contraceptive ring should be removed in time. The time to remove the ring is 3-7 days after the woman's normal menstruation ends. Before removing the IUD, you should have an ultrasound and test your leucorrhea. If you have vaginitis, you need to treat it before removing the ring. After the contraceptive ring is removed, it should be replaced and re-inserted in time. However, the work of removing and inserting the IUD should be handled by doctors in regular gynecological hospitals. Do not go to irregular clinics for treatment to avoid gynecological inflammation and infection.

3. Others

In most cases of ring displacement, the ring size is too large. When the myometrium moves, the ring can damage the endometrium and myometrium, and perforation may occur over time. When the contraceptive ring is moved downward, lower back pain and abdominal pain are among the most common symptoms. Some women may also experience abnormal menstrual cycles. It is worth noting that after the contraceptive ring moves downward, it will lose its contraceptive effect. Therefore, it is recommended that women choose to remove or re-insert it after a doctor's diagnosis.
