Is it good to have an IUD inserted 7 days before your period?

Patient's question:

I am very scared when this happens. I often have lower abdominal pain and don't know how to solve it, so I came here to consult. Is it okay to have an IUD inserted 7 days before my period?

Doctor's answer:

Generally, it is placed within 3-7 days after menstruation. At this time, the endometrium is relatively thin and less likely to cause bleeding. Patients with pelvic or cervical erosion are not suitable for insertion; they should wait until cured before placing a contraceptive ring.
Generally, doctors recommend that women with signs of fertility risks maintain a balanced diet, avoid spicy and stimulating as well as cold foods. Additionally, patients should create an environment conducive to emotional stability and stress relief. Wishing the patient a healthy delivery.
