Patient's question:
Which is easier or safer?Doctor's answer:
Hello, the incidence of ectopic pregnancy in women with intrauterine devices (IUDs) is about 4%, which is higher than in women without IUDs. Therefore, if a pregnancy occurs with an IUD, the first step is to undergo an ultrasound examination to rule out the possibility of ectopic pregnancy. If it is an intrauterine pregnancy, the natural abortion rate is relatively high, and there is also a higher incidence of premature birth. It is recommended that pregnancies with IUDs be terminated as early as possible. Since surgical abortion within the first three months of pregnancy causes less harm to the body, it is better to perform the procedure as early as possible. From the perspective of eugenics, fetuses conceived with an IUD are not worth preserving. Women who conceive with an IUD should undergo an early artificial abortion and have the IUD removed, as it is not advisable to continue the pregnancy. Do not worry too much.
