Patient's question:
I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? Can I remove the IUD after sexual intercourse?Doctor's answer:
Hello, it is not advisable to have sexual intercourse 3 days before the IUD removal. Generally, the IUD removal should be performed 3 to 7 days after the menstrual period has ended. If there is an infection or inflammation, treatment should be completed before the removal. This is done to prevent infection and excessive bleeding. Additionally, if sexual intercourse occurs before the IUD removal, pregnancy is possible. At this time, the body has not fully recovered, which is not conducive to healthy and optimal reproduction.
