Patient's question:
Hello doctor, my child is already three years old. But my husband and I have never had a good contraceptive measure.I got an intrauterine device yesterday, but after the doctor inserted it, they said my uterus is retroverted. Could you please tell me if this condition has any impact? Is it easy to fall out or displace?
First follow-up question: What are the main reasons for a retroverted uterus? How likely is it to affect the effectiveness of the IUD? Is there a way to address this?
Doctor's answer:
Under normal circumstances, it is not easy to fall off. However, if there are symptoms of adenomyosis with uterine enlargement, it may be easier to fall off. Most of the time, it is not felt, and it is necessary to regularly review in the hospital.
