Patient's question:
Hello doctor, because I already have one child, I don't really want to have a second child, so I want to ask, is it better to use condoms for contraception or an intrauterine device?Doctor's answer:
Based on your description, these two options each have their pros and cons. If you use condoms, the sensitivity during sex might be slightly reduced, but they can prevent the recurrence of sexually transmitted infections. On the other hand, using an intrauterine device (IUD) can provide a good sense of pleasure during sex, but it may lead to back pain, bleeding, and other issues. It is recommended that you choose based on your situation. If you decide to proceed, it is best to have the procedure 3-7 days after your menstrual period ends. Strictly avoid sexual activity for two days before the surgery. Pay attention to maintaining external genital hygiene and changing underwear frequently. For serious gynecological conditions, it is advisable to seek medical attention as soon as possible. Follow the doctor's advice for timely treatment and do not switch to new medications randomly, as this may have the opposite effect. The above suggestions are for reference only. I hope the above answer can help you. Thank you.
