Can I have gentle intercourse on the third day after inserting an IUD?

Patient's question:

I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? Can I have gentle intercourse on the third day after getting an IUD?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, there are many methods of contraception. You can choose from medication, condoms, or intrauterine devices (IUDs). Among these, condoms are generally considered the best option, as medication-based contraception can easily cause irregular menstruation.
Generally speaking, there are many reasons for post-coital bleeding. It could be due to vaginal wall friction or gynecological conditions. Therefore, if you experience post-coital bleeding, it is recommended that you seek medical attention promptly to identify the cause and receive appropriate treatment.
