Does wearing a ring affect future childbearing?

Patient's question:

Medical history: Not willing to take long-term birth control pills, will it affect getting pregnant with an IUD? Past treatment and effectiveness: Not willing to take birth control pills What kind of help do you want: IUD or other methods

Doctor's answer:

Hello, based on your description, it is analyzed that having an IUD (intrauterine device) placed does not affect future fertility, whereas tubal ligation is more uncertain. As long as there are no abnormalities with the IUD, there is no impact. However, it is essential to regularly check the IUD. Generally, when an IUD is placed, there is only a certain level of contraceptive effect during the period of use. After removing the IUD, you can usually become pregnant in about three months. However, it cannot be said that the IUD is 100% safe, as sometimes improper placement of the IUD can lead to inflammation of the fallopian tubes, causing adhesions. In such cases, even after removing the IUD, infertility may occur. However, this probability is relatively low. Therefore, it is generally considered to have little impact on fertility.
