What are the symptoms of IUD downward movement? Pay attention to backache and abdominal pain

The IUD is a long-term contraceptive method and is chosen by women who have just given birth. However, if the IUD is not suitable or is worn for too long, it may move down. The most typical symptoms are lower back pain and abdominal pain, and it must be removed in time.

1. What are the symptoms of IUD downward migration?

Lower back pain and abdominal pain are the most common symptoms of IUD displacement. The contraceptive ring that people often talk about is the intrauterine contraceptive device. It is used as an intrauterine contraceptive. Because the female uterus is shaped like an inverted pear and the uterine cavity is shaped like an inverted triangle, this shape will change due to uterine movement. The myometrium undergoes periodic segmental contractions. During the menstrual cycle, the upper part of the uterine fundus contracts and the lower part relaxes, causing the triangle within the uterine cavity to become smaller. The opposite happens during the middle period of two menstrual cycles, which makes the uterine cavity larger. In addition, the reason for the displacement of the IUD may also be improper selection of the ring size. Intrauterine displacement is often caused by a smaller ring size and a larger uterine cavity, which can cause the ring to move downward when the uterine muscle layer moves. In most cases of ring displacement, the ring size is too large. When the myometrium moves, the ring can damage the endometrium and myometrium, and perforation may occur over time. When the IUD is moved downward, lower back pain and abdominal pain are among the most common symptoms. Some women may also experience abnormal menstrual cycles. It is worth noting that after the IUD moves downward, it will lose its contraceptive effect. Therefore, it is recommended that women choose to remove or re-insert it after a doctor's diagnosis.

2. Precautions after IUD insertion

1. Prevent the IUD from falling off. For women with loose cervical opening and heavy menstrual flow, the IUD may fall off during menstruation. Therefore, when going to the toilet during menstruation, pay attention to whether the IUD has fallen out with the blood. If it is found to have fallen out, take other contraceptive measures in time and go to the hospital to insert the IUD again after the next menstrual period.

2. How to check the intrauterine contraceptive ring? The most commonly used method to check the intrauterine contraceptive ring is X-ray fluoroscopy. The metal ring is visualized under X-ray fluoroscopy. Through inspection, it can be observed whether there is an intrauterine contraceptive ring in the uterine cavity and whether the position of the intrauterine contraceptive ring in the uterine cavity is normal. However, X-ray fluoroscopy is not accurate in determining the position of the IUD, and the plastic IUD is visible at the bottom of the fluoroscopy, so X-rays cannot be used to check the plastic IUD. B-ultrasound diagnostic instrument detection can not only determine whether there is an IUD in the uterine cavity, but also determine the position, size and shape of the uterus, and then determine the position of the IUD in the uterine cavity. Moreover, B-ultrasound diagnosis has no side effects of radiation, so both metal rings and plastic rings can be detected. Metal alarm detection Metal rings can also be detected with a metal alarm. It can only determine whether there is an IUD in the uterine cavity, but cannot determine whether the position of the metal ring in the uterine cavity is normal.

3. Dietary precautions after the insertion of the IUD: You should pay attention to dietary conditioning after the insertion of the IUD. Eat more iron-rich foods, such as lean meat, pork liver, eggs, beans, fresh fruits and vegetables. Follow the principles of reasonable nutrition and balanced diet. This is the only way to effectively prevent the side effects of the IUD from causing physical depletion in the human body.
