What are the types of female IUDs?

Many women have no knowledge of IUDs, and don't even know what they are. There are many types of IUDs, with different shapes and sizes, and many of them have different economic costs. These IUDs are all different, but when using IUDs, you must know which IUD is suitable for you, so that you can get the contraceptive effect and better prevent pregnancy. So what are the types of IUDs for women?

Currently common contraceptive rings include: T ring, V ring, Hibiscus ring, Maternal Ring, active metal ring, uterine ring, etc. These are the basic shapes of rings. Each ring has its own significant advantages and characteristics. You can choose the ring according to your own situation.

1. Inert intrauterine contraceptive ring. The inert intrauterine contraceptive ring is mainly made of stainless steel wire or plastic, silicone, such as metal single ring, twisted ring and stainless steel uterine ring. The shapes of this ring are also different, and you can choose according to your own situation.

2. Intrauterine contraceptive ring that releases hemostatic drugs. Many women will experience an increase in menstrual flow after the ring is inserted. However, if an intrauterine contraceptive ring that releases hemostatic drugs is used, this ring can effectively control the increase in menstrual cycle volume after the intrauterine contraceptive ring is placed, and will not have any impact on life.

3. Copper intrauterine device The copper intrauterine device is the most commonly used active intrauterine device. Its main contraceptive principle is to use the killing effect of copper on sperm or fertilized eggs to enhance the contraceptive effect. Many women choose this type of ring, and women who want to get an IUD can also consider this type of ring.

4. Progesterone-releasing intrauterine contraceptive ring We all know that the higher the progesterone level of a woman, the better the chance of pregnancy. If you choose to use a progestin-releasing intrauterine contraceptive ring for contraception, the ring will slowly and steadily release the progestin contained in the intrauterine contraceptive device into the uterine cavity, thereby improving the contraceptive effect. At the same time, the ring can also reduce bleeding after the ring is inserted.

In addition, the best time to insert the IUD is 3-7 days after the menstruation ends. You can consider inserting the IUD after an abortion or induced labor to achieve the contraceptive effect. Then, new mothers who have given birth should have an IUD inserted within 42 days after delivery, and new mothers who had a caesarean section can have an IUD inserted after six months.

These contraceptive rings are suitable for women when they do not want to have children. However, not every woman is suitable for the same contraceptive ring. The contraceptive ring that suits each woman is different. Many women have different cervixes, so the contraceptive rings they use are also different. This is the only way to achieve the contraceptive effect. However, if possible, it is recommended that women do not use contraceptive rings, otherwise it is likely to cause gynecological diseases.
