Introduction
Women can walk normally after having an IUD inserted. Regular walking and physical activity will not cause the IUD to shift downward or fall out, nor will it lead to pelvic infections. During the procedure, the doctor measures the size and position of the patient's cervix and selects an appropriately sized IUD to place at the cervical site, so walking won't cause discomfort. However, strenuous exercise should be avoided.
Women can walk normally after having an intrauterine device (IUD) inserted. Regular walking and daily activities will not cause the IUD to shift downward or fall out, nor will they lead to pelvic infections. During the procedure, the doctor measures the size and position of the patient's cervix and places a suitably sized IUD, which ensures that normal walking will not cause physical discomfort. However, strenuous exercise should be avoided.
For one week after IUD insertion, heavy physical labor should be avoided, especially bending over to lift heavy objects or engaging in any other physically demanding tasks.
The primary purpose of inserting an IUD in women is to prevent pregnancy, and the procedure itself is relatively simple. Within the first month after insertion, some side effects may occur, such as spotting or increased vaginal discharge. These reactions are generally normal. However, if there is heavy bleeding or prolonged bleeding, it is important to seek timely medical treatment at a正规 hospital.
