There are these side effects of wearing an IUD

The effects of having an IUD vary from person to person. Some people do not experience any abnormalities after having the IUD inserted, but some people experience discomfort, such as back pain, stomach pain, etc. Everyone is different. However, the harm of having an IUD inserted is really great to the body. Even if no abnormalities are found in the body, it has actually been affected. So if you can do without the ring, then don’t wear it. Here are the most common hazards of wearing an IUD.

1. Lower back pain and abdominal distension: This may be caused by the IUD being too large or positioned too low, leading to uterine contractions. You can try antispasmodics first. If they are ineffective, you can choose a new ring.

2. Infection: In a few cases, ascending infection may occur due to improper disinfection or aseptic operation. After it happens, the ring should be removed first, and then appropriate treatment should be taken.

3. IUD incarceration: Some IUDs may become embedded in the uterine muscle wall. If the insertion is shallow, it can still be pulled out with the ring hook; if the insertion is deep, the cervix must be dilated to size 6-7 first, then the ring must be brought to the cervical opening, and two hemostatic forceps must be used to straighten the ring wire, cut it, and then pull it out. The operation should be slow and gentle. If necessary, the hook can be removed under the guidance of B-ultrasound to reduce the blindness of the operation. If the ring is deeply embedded or has even penetrated the uterine wall into the pelvic cavity, it should be removed by laparotomy or laparoscopy.

4. IUD fall-off: This often happens within the first year of wearing the device, especially during the first three months of menstruation. The natural shedding of the IUD is related to the ring being too large or too small, not being placed at the bottom of the uterine cavity, poor quality of manufacturing materials, insufficient support, loose cervix of the recipient, excessive labor intensity or heavy menstruation. Therefore, follow-up observation should be paid attention to in the first year after IUD insertion.

5. Pregnancy with an IUD: Pregnancy with an IUD or even ectopic pregnancy may occur due to improper selection or placement of the IUD.

The dangers of having an IUD cannot be underestimated. A woman's body will never recover to the same state after giving birth. If you have an IUD, the situation will be even worse. If you get pregnant while wearing an IUD, there will be a series of adverse reactions. So I would like to tell all the women with IUDs to take care of their bodies. Health is very important. Pay more attention to yourself in daily life, and speak up when you feel uncomfortable. Don't bear it or put it off, as this is very bad for your health.
