Life is always full of various challenges and difficulties. There are some difficulties that we cannot predict or grasp. Having more children and more blessings is our consistent idea, but some friends prefer a two person world and do not want to have children. The intrauterine device (IUD) is a common tool. So, how long can the previous intrauterine device (IUD) be used for sexual intercourse?
How long can I have sex with the previous intrauterine device
After normal insertion of the intrauterine device, it is generally recommended to abstain from sexual activity for 2 weeks. If there is repeated vaginal bleeding, sexual intercourse should not be performed. If there is still bleeding after menstruation, it is an abnormal phenomenon. It is recommended to go to the hospital for an ultrasound examination and observe the position of the contraceptive device to see if it is normal. If the position is normal, a small amount of hemostatic and anti-inflammatory drugs can be added for observation. After the bleeding stops, sexual intercourse can be performed.
What are the side effects of the previous intrauterine device
The common side effects after inserting an intrauterine device (IUD) are lower abdominal bloating, pain, and/or lower back soreness. This is because the natural rejection of the contraceptive device by the uterus causes uterine contractions, leading to lower abdominal bloating and pain or lower back soreness. However, these side effects will gradually disappear as the body adapts to the symptoms over time.
Bleeding. Due to the contraction of the uterus after insertion of an intrauterine device (IUD) and the trauma to the endometrium caused by the IUD, bleeding can occur. This bleeding usually lasts for several days and does not exceed menstrual flow. If the bleeding does not decrease for a long time, anti-inflammatory and hemostatic drugs should be taken. If the situation still does not improve, it is recommended to remove the IUD. According to the type and usage period of the contraceptive device, plastic types can generally be stored for 5 years, while metal types can be stored for more than 10 years. Even if the contraceptive device is replaced beyond its service life, it may deform or even break and become embedded in the uterine wall, causing bleeding.
Placing an intrauterine device (IUD) for contraception is not 100% safe, and the first month of placement is the easiest time to remove the IUD. Therefore, it is best to have a check-up every month for the first three months of IUD placement, and then every year. Check if the contraceptive device is still in place or if it has shifted. If it falls off, contraception may fail, and shifting may lead to ectopic pregnancy, but the probability is not high.
From this perspective, the previous stage of the intrauterine device (IUD) should rest for about a month before sexual intercourse. After the previous stage of the IUD, it is important to rest and avoid excessive fatigue. It is necessary to supplement various nutrients, but the intrauterine device (IUD) also has various hazards, so caution should be taken when using it. It has to be said that sexual life is incredibly beautiful, and one should also maintain rationality. Pay attention to sexual safety and health, and exercise appropriately when taking time. This will have a significant impact on our entire family.
