Patient's question:
I recently don't want to get pregnant and don't know how to breastfeed. I heard from others that using a coil can help with breastfeeding. Is it effective to breastfeed with a coil?Doctor's answer:
The insertion of an intrauterine device (IUD) is a safe, effective, economical, and convenient contraceptive method with strong reversibility. Its main advantages include: 1. The procedure is simple, non-invasive, and has minimal side effects. Some initial symptoms may include lower back pain, discomfort in the lower abdomen, increased vaginal discharge, prolonged menstruation, and heavier menstrual flow. However, these symptoms will typically subside on their own over time. 2. The effectiveness is highly reliable, with a high success rate for breastfeeding. Clinical practice has shown that no breastfeeding method can achieve a result beyond 100%. The success rate for breastfeeding with an IUD is relatively high. The greatest advantage of an IUD is the ease of removal. The disadvantage is that the tail string may cause cervical irritation, leading to cervicitis. IUDs without a tail string may cause irregular menstruation due to a larger contact area. It is recommended to undergo regular check-ups after inserting an IUD.
