Patient's question:
What to pay attention to when using the Mirena IUDDoctor's answer:
Hello, generally, it is advisable to place an intrauterine device (IUD) 3-7 days after the menstrual period ends, without any sexual activity. This is because the endometrium is just beginning to grow at this time, and the lining is relatively thin, which can prevent bleeding during insertion. Additionally, since there has been no sexual activity after the period, the possibility of the IUD being placed on an already implanted fertilized egg is avoided.One week before the procedure, it is best to avoid sexual activity. After the IUD is placed, it is important to avoid tub baths, maintain hygiene, get adequate rest, and drink plenty of water. I hope my answer helps you. Wishing you a happy life.
