Patient's question:
I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? How long after a normal delivery can I get an IUD?Doctor's answer:
Hello: After a vaginal delivery, it is important to maintain cleanliness of the external genital area. Avoid sexual intercourse and sitz baths for two weeks to prevent infection. Regular follow-up visits are necessary, with check-ups scheduled one month, six months, and one year after the surgery, followed by annual check-ups to monitor for any shedding or ectopic issues. Rest appropriately; for the first three days, you may experience a small amount of vaginal bleeding and an increase in leukorrhea, which will resolve on its own without requiring treatment.
