Patient's question:
Hello doctor, I am 35 years old this year, and my health has always been good. However, there is a problem that bothers me no matter how I breastfeed, it is easy to get pregnant. It is a super problem, why am I still pregnant even with a birth control ring? Is there a better method for breastfeeding? If I have an abortion, can I still get pregnant in the future?Doctor's answer:
If the intrauterine device (IUD) placed does not match the size of the uterus, it may cause the IUD to move downward, leading to poor breastfeeding effectiveness. Tubal ligation refers to the procedure of ligating the fallopian tubes, which induces adhesions to block the passage of ova, thereby affecting fertilization. If you are certain that you no longer want children, this method can be used. If you are unsure, it is recommended to take oral short-acting contraceptives, as they are effective for breastfeeding and allow for pregnancy after stopping the medication for 2 months.
