Hôm nay, hãy cùng Dr.Marie tìm hiểu về quy trình này nhé!
Step 1: Consultation and Selection of the Appropriate IUD
Before the procedure, you will consult with a doctor or healthcare professional to discuss and assess your health status. They will discuss various IUD options and understand your specific needs to ensure the most suitable choice.
Step 2: General Health Examination
Prior to IUD insertion, a general health examination will be conducted to ensure there are no medical issues that may contraindicate IUD use.
Step 3: Choosing the Type of IUD
There are different types of IUDs, such as copper IUDs and hormonal IUDs. The doctor will assist you in selecting the type that best fits your health condition and contraceptive needs.
Step 4: IUD Insertion Procedure
After selecting the appropriate IUD, the insertion process will proceed. Typically, this process takes only a few minutes and is performed by a qualified doctor or nurse.
Step 5: Post-Insertion Monitoring and Counseling
Following the insertion, you will be monitored and counseled on the use of the IUD. The doctor will provide guidance on how to use the device properly and what to do if any issues arise.
IUD insertion is a simple and safe procedure offering high efficacy for long-term contraception. Before deciding to have an IUD inserted, consult with a healthcare professional to ensure it is the right choice for you.
When Should You Have an IUD Inserted?
IUDs are an effective and long-term contraceptive method, but deciding the right time for insertion requires careful consideration and discussion. To help you understand and make an informed decision, Dr. Marie provides guidance on the appropriate timing for IUD insertion:
After Childbirth or Abortion
One of the most suitable times to have an IUD inserted is after childbirth or following an abortion. You should discuss this with your doctor or healthcare professional immediately after childbirth or abortion.
When You Desire Long-Term Contraception
If you wish to prevent pregnancy for an extended period without daily concern, this method may be appropriate. IUDs can remain effective for 3 to 10 years, depending on the type chosen.
After Having at Least One Successful Pregnancy
If you have had one or more successful pregnancies and wish to delay further childbearing, IUD insertion is a safe and effective method.
When You Prefer Not to Use Daily Contraceptive Methods
IUDs do not require daily attention and do not interfere with daily activities. If you prefer to avoid daily contraceptive methods or the need to remember, an IUD may be a good solution.
After Consultation and General Health Examination
Before making a decision, you should have a consultation and general health examination with a doctor or healthcare professional. They will help assess your needs and health status to make an informed decision.
This is an effective and safe contraceptive method, but timing the insertion requires careful consideration. Consult with a healthcare professional to ensure it aligns with your needs and health status, and to minimize potential side effects.
Side Effects of IUD Insertion
IUD insertion is a safe and effective contraceptive method, but like any other method, it may cause some side effects. To understand and address potential issues, Dr. Marie discusses common side effects associated with IUD use:
Abdominal Pain and Uterine Cramps
Some women may experience abdominal pain and uterine cramps after IUD insertion. This typically occurs within the first few days and usually diminishes over time.
Heavier and Longer Menstrual Periods
After IUD insertion, some individuals may notice heavier menstrual bleeding and longer periods. This usually decreases over time (within 3–6 months). For hormonal IUDs, menstrual bleeding may become lighter or even absent.
Unwanted Bleeding
Some women may experience unexpected bleeding between periods when using an IUD. This often happens in the initial months and typically decreases over time.
Uterine Infection
A rare side effect is uterine infection after IUD insertion. Symptoms may include fever, severe abdominal pain, and vaginal discharge.
IUD Expulsion
In very rare cases, the IUD may be expelled from the uterus. If you notice that your IUD is missing or no longer in its original position, consult your doctor immediately for examination and possible replacement.
While IUDs are an effective and safe contraceptive method, they may cause some side effects. Understanding these common side effects allows you to address and adapt if they occur. If you have any questions or concerns about IUDs, discuss with your doctor or healthcare professional for advice and support.
