Things to note when having an IUD inserted: Women must know

There is a possibility of pregnancy when there is sexual intercourse. Many couples who do not plan to have a baby will choose to take adequate contraceptive measures. There are many contraceptive methods now, and IUD insertion is one of them. However, there are many precautions when inserting an IUD, and women must pay attention to them, otherwise the consequences can be very serious.

What should you pay attention to after the ring is inserted:

1. If you find any abnormal phenomenon after the IUD is inserted, please seek medical treatment and consultation in time.

2. After the IUD is inserted, keep the vulva clean. Avoid sexual intercourse and sitting baths within two weeks to avoid infection.

3. Regular follow-up is required after the IUD is inserted, with a check-up one month, six months, and one year after the operation, and then once a year thereafter to check for any dislocation or dislocation.

4. After having the IUD inserted, you should take adequate rest. A small amount of vaginal bleeding and increased leucorrhea may occur in the first three days, but they will disappear on their own and no treatment is needed. Among the many birth control measures, "IUD" can be said to be a long-term contraceptive method. However, women with acute pelvic inflammatory disease, acute vaginitis, severe cervical erosion, excessive or irregular menstrual bleeding, uterine fibroids, narrow cervical opening, or severe systemic diseases should not have sex, otherwise it will lead to worsening inflammation and increased menstrual flow. Therefore, if these related symptoms appear, it is best to treat them before having an IUD inserted.

Common reactions and precautions after IUD insertion:

1. Mild low back pain and soreness. It is because you are not used to the ring right after it is put in. The uterus will contract and it will disappear naturally after a while. During this period, be careful not to do heavy work.

2. Increased vaginal discharge. When the uterus is stimulated, cervical secretions increase. Generally, this symptom will gradually decrease three months after the ring is placed.

3. A small amount of vaginal bleeding, or a shortened menstrual cycle, heavy menstrual flow, or a prolonged menstrual period. This is because the endometrium is compressed by the ring, causing inflammatory infiltration of cells. Over time, the symptoms will disappear as the uterus adapts.

4. Do not do heavy physical labor within one week, avoid adding abdominal pressure, and avoid sexual intercourse and tub bathing within two weeks. This is something that women should pay attention to when getting an IUD, and it is very important for women's health. Keep the vulva clean, wash it every day, and change underwear frequently.

5. Among the precautions for women with IUD insertion, female friends should also pay attention to the fact that they should receive follow-up visits from medical staff during the first menstruation and in the 3rd, 6th, and 12th months after the insertion, and have 1-2 check-ups each year thereafter.
