Patient's question:
I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? Does it have any effects for women to wear a ring?Doctor's answer:
Clinical practice has proven that intrauterine devices (IUDs) are a safe, effective, economical, simple, and highly reversible form of contraception. Their main advantages include:1. The procedure is simple, non-invasive, and has minimal side effects. Some initial symptoms may include lower back pain, discomfort in the lower abdomen, increased vaginal discharge, prolonged menstruation, or heavier menstrual flow. However, these symptoms usually subside on their own over time.
2. High reliability and a high success rate in contraception.
3. Long-term contraception. Metal IUDs can typically be left in place for 10–15 years, while plastic IUDs, due to their poor elasticity, weak support, and tendency to deform or fall out, can be used for about five years.
4. When fertility is desired, the IUD can be easily removed, allowing for quick conception.
5. It has no impact on sexual life and is harmless to the body.
