Can I remove the IUD if I have vaginitis?

Patient's question:

A few days ago, I suffered from acute vaginitis, but now I understand about anesthesia and medication treatment. After the treatment, can I wear a ring? The doctor recommended taking medication two months later. Why? I would like to ask the experts how they generally handle this situation.

Doctor's answer:

Generally, patients need to remove the ring 3 to 7 days after their menstrual period. If there is vaginitis, patients need to be actively treated. It is recommended that patients seek medical treatment for vaginitis before wearing the ring to prevent the recurrence of gynecological inflammation. Within one month after the intrauterine device is inserted, avoid sexual intercourse to prevent gynecological diseases such as inflammation and damage to women's physical health. In addition, women should also pay attention to daily hygiene issues.
