An intrauterine device (IUD) is a long-term contraceptive method used by couples. In fact, an IUD refers to an intrauterine device that can provide perfect contraception. However, an IUD can still cause some problems for women's bodies, such as short-term bleeding, pain, and a series of other issues. After the IUD is inserted, the body is relatively weak. Does it have a significant impact on holding a child?
Does carrying a child after getting an IUD have a significant impact
After wearing an intrauterine device (IUD), try to rest in bed as much as possible for 3 days, and then return to work normally. Do not have sexual intercourse, take baths, or engage in heavy physical labor for the second half of the month The first, third, and sixth month after intrauterine device insertion should be followed up at the hospital, and at least once a year thereafter It is not allowed to hold children, as it will affect the position of the intrauterine device. If a woman puts on an intrauterine device, it is easy to cause the device to shift in the first half month, so it is important to pay attention.
What are the precautions after getting an IUD inserted
1. Take appropriate rest
After the insertion of the intrauterine device (IUD), the cervix is relatively loose and the IUD is prone to detachment. Therefore, it is recommended to rest for two days after IUD insertion. It is not advisable to engage in heavy physical labor or participate in high-intensity physical activities within a week. When urinating or defecating, try to avoid holding your breath too hard to prevent sudden increase in abdominal pressure from causing dislodgement.
2. Maintain hygiene
Ring insertion is a surgical procedure. To avoid infection, the external genitalia should be kept clean after surgery. The lower body should be washed with warm water every night and underwear should be changed. Within two weeks, sexual activity (which requires active cooperation from the male partner) and sitz baths (although showering or scrubbing is allowed) are prohibited to maintain vaginal hygiene and prevent cross infection.
3. Pay attention to observation
Within a few days after inserting the intrauterine device (IUD) (mainly in the first three days), there may be a small amount of vaginal bleeding, mild lower abdominal discomfort (such as lower back pain and sagging sensation), and increased vaginal discharge (caused by surgical trauma, mechanical compression of the IUD, or rupture of small blood vessels in the endometrium), which generally disappear on their own and do not require treatment.
4. Prevent detachment
During the first 3 months after inserting an intrauterine device (IUD), especially for women with a loose cervix and heavy menstrual flow, the IUD may detach with menstrual blood during menstruation.
After getting an intrauterine device (IUD), women need to take good care of themselves and avoid strenuous exercise or holding their children. It is recommended to leave the child's father to take care of them as much as possible. If there are no abnormal conditions after getting an IUD, life can proceed as usual. However, if there are any abnormal conditions, it is still necessary to seek medical attention. However, getting an IUD can be harmful to women's health, and it is advised to proceed with caution.
