There are many contraceptive methods available for everyone to choose from now, including condoms, birth control pills, and intrauterine devices. In addition to these, there is also contraceptive thread embedding, which some friends may not know much about. So they want to know, which is better, contraceptive thread embedding or intrauterine device (IUD)? Only by making comparisons and having a good heart rate can one choose the contraception that suits oneself.
Which is better, contraceptive thread embedding or intrauterine device (IUD)
Thread embedding is the process of embedding a type of progestin contraceptive pill into subcutaneous tissue. The progesterone in the pill can cause thinning of the endometrium, which can easily interfere with the original menstrual cycle. However, after a period of time, the female body gradually adapts to this change and returns to a normal state. The buried thread contraceptive surgery is very simple, with a small and shallow skin incision, and will not have any impact on the female body.
When it comes to the question of which is better, an intrauterine device (IUD) or an intrauterine device (IUD), many women are particularly concerned about it. In fact, both buried wire and intrauterine device (IUD) have good contraceptive effects, with an effective rate of over 90%. However, the buried wire method can last for about 5 years with a single implantation, while the IUD method can last for about 10 years. Therefore, women who want to achieve longer lasting contraception can choose to use an IUD.
However, the drug response of buried thread contraception is small and the operation is very simple. Only a very small incision is needed to insert it into the skin. Patients generally do not experience any discomfort symptoms. However, in the early stage of IUD insertion, many patients may experience temporary vaginal bleeding, soreness and weakness of the waist and knees, menstrual disorders, etc. due to discomfort. Generally, after adjustment and rest, they can recover to normal.
What are the preoperative examinations for contraceptive thread embedding
Examination shall be carried out before operation. Women with severe anemia, hypertension, frequent headache, hyperthyroidism, breast cancer, diabetes, uterine leiomyoma, ovarian tumor, severe skin disease, hepatitis and nephritis cannot use this method.
Routine tests: hemoglobin, coagulation time, platelets, liver function.
Physical examination: including weight, blood pressure, cardiopulmonary function, gynecological examination, cervical cancer scraping, breast examination, to exclude pregnancy and tumors. Skin embedding surgery can only be performed after confirming that there is no pregnancy or other illness.
Regarding the two methods of contraception, thread embedding and intrauterine device (IUD), both have better contraceptive effects, but the duration is different. Thread embedding only lasts for 5 years, while IUD insertion can last for up to 10 years. However, the operation of buried thread contraception is simple, and the drug response is relatively small, so there are generally no uncomfortable symptoms. Therefore, if friends who are not suitable for intrauterine devices can choose buried thread contraception.
