Many women of childbearing age often become pregnant easily due to inadequate contraceptive measures in their daily lives. In this case, women will choose to undergo artificial abortion, and at the same time, in order to avoid conception again, they will want to use an intrauterine device to prevent pregnancy. So, can I have an IUD inserted during an abortion?
During an abortion, it is not possible to have an intrauterine device (IUD) inserted simultaneously. Because pregnant women usually experience uterine bleeding for a period of time after undergoing abortion surgery. In this case, if an intrauterine device (IUD) is inserted, uterine bleeding may affect the stability of the IUD in the uterine cavity, making it easy for the IUD to shift or fall off.
If a pregnant woman must insert an intrauterine device (IUD) during the abortion procedure, she should first consider the uterine contractions at the end of the procedure. If the uterine contractions are not good, it is best not to rush into inserting an intrauterine device. Pregnant women can choose to go to the hospital for IUD insertion one month after the abortion surgery and after their menstrual period is clean.
After the insertion of an intrauterine device, women may experience a period of bleeding. However, as long as there is not much bleeding, it will not affect women's health. Within one month after the insertion of an intrauterine device, although the device has already been inserted, women cannot engage in sexual intercourse during this period because it takes some time for the endometrium to recover. If it does not recover properly, it can lead to infection.
