Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried it might affect fertility, and I also feel extremely cold and afraid of the cold. How much does it cost for a woman to have an IUD?Doctor's answer:
Hello: The reason for choosing to insert an IUD 3-7 days after the menstrual period is due to three benefits: First, the cervix is more relaxed, making it easier to insert. Second, since the period has just started, pregnancy can be ruled out, preventing the IUD from being placed in an already pregnant uterus. Third, it avoids concerns and inconvenience caused by minor bleeding in women after IUD insertion.When inserting an IUD, it is important to focus on nutrition and rest. After insertion, dietary adjustments should be made to increase nutrition appropriately, especially by consuming iron-rich foods such as lean meat, pork liver, pork kidneys, eggs, and tofu. Additionally, more vegetables and fresh fruits should be included in the diet. Generally, with proper dietary adjustments, the physical exhaustion caused by post-insertion side effects can be effectively prevented.
