What is the process of getting on the ring?

After giving birth, the most effective contraceptive method for women of childbearing age is to have an IUD. This method provides a long-term contraceptive effect by placing an IUD in the woman's uterine cavity to prevent the fertilized egg from implanting without affecting her ovulation, thereby achieving the purpose of contraception. The main process is to first check and adopt the correct body position, then strictly disinfect the parts and medical instruments. The doctor will place the selected contraceptive ring on the placement device to the bottom of the uterine cavity and then remove the placement device. Although this process is simple, it requires high standards from the doctor. Female friends are advised to choose a regular hospital for this.

Steps for female friends to get an IUD:

1. Lithotomy position, then disinfect the vulva and vagina according to the routine method, and lay a sterile towel.

2. Before inserting the IUD, relevant IUD examinations are also essential, mainly to check whether there are any abnormalities in the size, position, inclination and appendages of the vagina and uterus.

3. Use a vaginal speculum to dilate the vagina, expose the cervix, wipe off cervical secretions, and disinfect the cervix and cervical canal with disinfectant.

4. The next step is what we can also see in the video of the whole process of women having an IUD inserted, which is to accurately measure the depth and width of the uterine cavity. Support the cervical forceps with your left hand and hold the uterine probe with your right hand. Gently probe into the uterine cavity along the direction of the uterus until it reaches the uterine fundus, measure the depth of the uterine cavity, and gently swing it to both sides to estimate the width of the uterine cavity.

5. The model of the IUD needs to be selected according to the size of the female uterine cavity.

6. The last step is the main operation of IUD insertion, which is also the most important part of the whole process. The specific method is: place the selected contraceptive device on the placement device (IUD fork or IUD forceps), and gently send it into the uterine cavity along the direction of the uterine cavity until it reaches the fundus of the uterus. When passing through the internal os of the uterus, the placement device is slightly flattened and aligned with the longitudinal axis of the uterine cavity to prevent the contraceptive device from twisting in the uterus. After placing the IUD at the fundus of the uterus, withdraw the placement device.

Although IUD insertion can prevent unwanted pregnancy, women who want to have an IUD inserted should wait three days after their menstrual period or if they have bleeding or gynecological inflammation. They can only consider having an IUD inserted after the disease is cured. In addition, you should rest for a week after the IUD is inserted, avoid doing heavy physical work, and avoid having sexual intercourse too early to avoid infection. At the same time, you should go for regular check-ups to prevent the contraceptive ring from falling off.
