Patient's question:
Hello, what should I do if my uterus is retroverted?Doctor's answer:
?Hello, there is still a possibility of pregnancy with this method. During the process of couples using contraception, it is often necessary to switch methods, but during the transition, some unexpected pregnancies may occur, which can have a certain negative impact on the couple's life and the wife's health. Only by completing a "smooth transition" during contraception can the purpose of continuing to prevent pregnancy be achieved, and caution should be exercised when changing methods. Before switching to a new method, it is essential to have a thorough understanding of it and master the correct usage. Regardless of which type of contraceptive pill is taken, if switching to another method of contraception, it is necessary to complete one menstrual cycle and never switch in the middle, otherwise it may cause menstrual disorders or contraceptive failure. Women using long-acting contraceptives who wish to switch to other methods, such as intrauterine devices or condoms, should first switch to short-acting contraceptives for 2-3 cycles to reduce the occurrence of menstrual disorders. Although intrauterine device products are constantly being updated, they all have their advantages and disadvantages. As long as the intrauterine device already in place is suitable for you, reliable, and has no side effects, you should continue using it and avoid changing it blindly. Intrauterine devices can typically be left in place for 10-20 years; couples originally using contraceptive tools should start taking oral contraceptives on the fifth day of their menstrual cycle, and it is necessary to continue using the contraceptive tools before starting the medication.
