Although the procedure is not a major surgery, there are still certain risks. If the time is not chosen well, it may even have an impact on a woman's body. So some people ask when should a woman get a ring? What should women pay attention to after getting the ring? Next, I will introduce them one by one for your reference.

      When is the best time for a woman to get a ring?

      1. During emergency contraception

      If you do not take contraceptive measures during sex, you can use an IUD within 5 days for emergency contraception.

      2. 7 days after the recovery of menstruation after spontaneous abortion

      Women who experience spontaneous abortion can undergo an IUD within 7 days after menstruation resumes.

      3. After artificial abortion

      What to do if you have an unwanted pregnancy flow of people In this case, the ring can be released immediately after the abortion. At this time, abortion and fertilization can be performed at one time, which not only facilitates women, but also reduces their psychological burden.

      4. Within seven days after the end of menstruation

      Under normal circumstances, the ring should be inserted 3 to 7 days after menstruation is clean. Because it is released at this time, there are fewer side effects. Additionally, the possibility of pregnancy was ruled out. At the same time, the cervix is ​​loose and the ring is easy to insert. However, please note that you are not allowed to have sex before taking the ring.

      5. Six weeks after normal delivery

Because at this time, Uterus It has basically returned to the normal size before pregnancy, but the cervix is ​​loose and the ring is easy to insert. At the same time, if sexual life has not been resumed after childbirth, "hidden pregnancy" can be ruled out.

      6. During caesarean section or half a year after delivery

      If the delivery method is cesarean section, it can be inserted immediately during cesarean section. By inserting the ring at this time, the ring can be placed in the best position of the uterus without increasing the patient's pain and mental burden, and can also avoid "hidden pregnancy" after delivery. In addition, the insertion of the ring during cesarean section does not pass through the vagina, and the cesarean section operation itself is strictly aseptic, so infection will not occur.

      What should women pay attention to after getting a ring?

      1. Take proper rest

      After the ring is placed, the cervix is ​​relatively loose and the ring falls off easily. Therefore, you need to rest for two days after the ring is placed. It is not advisable to do heavy physical labor or participate in heavy physical activities within a week. When defecating, try to avoid holding your breath too hard to prevent a sudden increase in abdominal pressure from causing decirculation.

      2. Timely consultation

      During the process of wearing the ring, if it is found that it takes a long time (especially more than one year) Menorrhagia , prolonged menstruation or severe back pain and other abnormal phenomena, you should consult the relevant doctor to get timely symptomatic treatment.

      3. Regular follow-up visits

      The follow-up time is usually in the first month after ring insertion, after menstruation is clear. Hospital Check once; Review once every 3 months (or half a year) and once a year ; From now on, the inspection will be conducted once a year (the person releasing the ring must go to the hospital or a designated place in the community for "environmental inspection" on time).

      4. Be careful of secret pregnancy

      IUD contraception is not 100% effective, and a very small number of women may become pregnant with an IUD. Therefore, once the ring appears during the belt period, amenorrhea , especially when accompanied by nausea, vomiting, partial eclipse, etc., you should go to the hospital for examination as soon as possible and take remedial measures.

      5. Maintain hygiene

      Ring insertion is a surgical operation. In order to avoid infection, the vulva must be kept clean after the operation, wash the lower body with warm water every night, and change underwear. It is forbidden to have sex within two weeks (this requires the active cooperation of the man) and sit bathing (but you can shower or bathe) to maintain vaginal hygiene and prevent cross-infection.

      6. Prevent falling off

      In the first 3 months after IUD insertion, especially for some women whose uterine openings are loose and have heavy menstrual flow, the IUD may fall off with menstrual blood during menstruation. Therefore, such women should pay special attention to whether the ring falls out with menstrual blood when going to the toilet during menstruation. Once it happens, you should go to the hospital to replace it in time, and pay attention to changing the model of the right size to avoid falling off again.

      7. Pay attention to observation

      Within a few days after IUD insertion (mainly the first three days), there may be a small amount of vaginal bleeding, slight lower abdominal discomfort (such as backache, etc.) and increased leucorrhea (this is caused by surgical trauma or mechanical compression of the IUD or rupture of small endometrial blood vessels). Generally, it will disappear on its own without treatment. If the bleeding is heavy or lasts for more than a week, especially if it occurs stomach ache , fever and other conditions, you should see a doctor in time.
